Definitely Perry Mason, that was in reruns in the afternoons when I was a kid. The other one, I have no memory of at all.
I recall quite clearly when Gilligan's Island was still B&W.

Later versions of it weren't really any better, though Ben Cross did a better job of keeping it a melodrama; Depp turned it into a comedy, which I really did not appreciate.
Thanks, I have a whole different reason for my back issue, I have a degenerating disk, it is falling apart. However not bad enough yet to have operation on my back, my dad did so I know the process dont want it until I cant do anything about it. The other reason you hit on the head I don't sleep well at all, I am up more than I am asleep unless I take something. However for 6 months I have been not taking anything due to the fact I thought I gave my body a break after years of taking something. Then there is my leg that is whole mess in it self. I do exercise as I can, I coach baseball on my grandsons team and help in cub scouts. However I still end up on the recliner. HA. I do want one of the memory foam mattress, just cant do it now.
Oh cool. I don't remember much else about it. But that part stuck with me. Lol. Looked it up. I was 8That was The Dead Pool, the last Harry Callahan movie. And Guns n Roses also had walk-on cameos in that, as funeral guests for that rocker's funeral.

Memory foam isn't that great. My wife and I sit in the bed a lot and it holds that shape. So we have to sleep opposite of the headboard or it messes up our backs sleeping in a concave position. They're also hot. Makes you sweat like crazy. Which is weird because I'm cold natured
Never thought of that, I also thought they had the cooling gel or whatever in them. My wife is always hot so she like that. Maybe it was a diffrent type mattress.
I think you can buy cooling gel pillow topper for the bed.
Probably why they are so hot, then they can sell you the cooling topper for your mattress. HA
@AndriaD Nope, never watched Gotham. Batman (the original) used to be on when I was a kid but never been into comic-based super hero stuff... Hazel! LOL! Can barely picture her. Patty Duke Show... loved how naughty Patty was always getting good Patty into trouble. A Lucy & Ethel parallel there. But know what you mean... even as a kid it was clear 'we're just pretending they're two people.'
And some years later, best variety show ever that's never been topped or equaled: Carol Burnette Show!
Gotham is FUCKING GREAT, as the backstory to Batman, explaining why Commissioner Gordon is willing to put up with a vigilante -- it all makes sense. But that kid, Robin Lord Taylor... he's just flat-out fucking AMAZING. I certainly never expected to find the Penguin as my favorite character, but that kid... he's a force of nature. One of those actors like Nicholson, or Michael Keaton, Tommie Lee Jones, chewing that scenery for all he's worth!
Good ol 1980ROFL! I was already in my 2nd marriage; our son was born that year (88). Apparently you were born the year after I graduated high school.

Damn, you people are old! Jack Webb and Jack Lalane! Hell, I bet you even remember 77 Sunset Strip and Perry Mason too, huh?
Afraid to turn on the morning news...
I hope that was opaque enough.
Thanks and I'm 54 going on 18 ha ha.... People are always like godammit Manny grow up.....
My husband is 66 going on 5.

Good morning all!
The Morning Vape... hmmmm...
It occurs to me I remember back in the day probably 20 years ago when Yahoo Chat was a fun time, until it turned into a big soap opera. Anyway, you could talk to each other in chat. Glad that's not possible here because I don't believe I want to hear anybody's, how should I say, morning bodily functions. And don't even TRY to tell me it wouldn't happen.
'cause if nobody else did I would
Aren't most guys. LolMy husband is 66 going on 5.

I used to be a regular at Atlanta Chatline BBS, in the early/mid 90s... it was terrific fun... But as soon as I found "chat" on the internet, I realized that the 12 yr old boys had finally taken over, with their "what kind of panties are you wearing?" stupidity.
Andria
My ex used to get soooooooo mad at that. What got me was what they called "Going on a Plane Ride". A group of them would load up all their "boot" programs and randomly go from one room to another kicking everybody off the servers.
@MyMagicMist Hearing the Mighty Mouse theme always reminds me of Andy Kaufman's routine.
Believe me, I keep up on the news. DVR 2hrs of it nightly so I can watch at day's end, FF thru commercials and the stories I have already heard and know what's going on... Just wasn't up for checking yesterday morning with said crap going on, but nuff said. No quicker way to ruin a thread than invite unwitting bot-propagandists who don't realize it, to chime in with their crap.
I only kind of glance at MSM a wee bit. For me it's like Carlin says, a big circus. But I do see your point here too. * pops can of Bot-Be-Boomed, watches bots be fragged to bits and bytes *
But the best fun was the bashes that would be held in some ATL hotel ballroom, getting to meet and greet the faces that went with the "handles"... I was "Carmilla" for YEARS. And I had some great friends; I'd already stopped drinking, so I'd show up with a quart of fresh-brewed iced tea, and ask the bartender to keep it at the bar for me, so some idiot wouldn't spike it and set back my recovery; when my friends wouild see me sipping the amber-colored drink on ice, they'd run over and smell it, to make sure I was being good. Good times.
Y'know that NO CARRIER message that would pop up when someone in someone's house would pick up an extension, or their call waiting would kick in? We always had a good time with those, following them up with NO AIRPLANES and NO BATTLESHIP and then someone would HAVE TO chime in with YOU SANK MY BATTLESHIP!

I'm telling on myself here but, I remember when we had party lines.
The thing my son and i were talking about today was phones with the realllllllllllllllllll long cords, so you could take them out to the porch -- we had that, in the apartment we lived in when our son was growing up. I got one of those when my folks bought another house in 1978, and I had the bedroom upstairs -- the phone in the den upstairs was a princess phone, with a 25' straight cord, and I got a really long curly cord for it, so I could take it into my room and have "my own phone."
