:eek: Well, they can always break those dorky Miami-Vice-ish costumes from “2 days and 2 nights” out of storage for that one.

Did she tell 'em that this was because it wasn’t a very good movie?

Did you ever see the “Miami Mice” skit on _Sesame Street_?

Now _that_ was cool.

We are culturally deprived here in the South. 🙂

I betcha Tubbs is still chasing that Columbian.  
I always liked that crocket line, right before they were about to break all the rules and go get vengence by shooting everything and blowing their cover and maybe being forced off the force and all sorts of other bad shit possibly happening to them (tho, we knew they wouldn’t die or got to jail 'cause it was the series premier, for Kirk’s sake!) and Sonny goes to his now remarired ex wife and asks, “Was it real?”

Other than _A Boy And His Dog_, that 17.2 seconds was the best acting I’ve ever seen from Don Johnson.

The Tubbs guy put out a disco type record. Ever hear it?

He has a nice voice but I haven’t heard the record. I’ll go see about it on Amazon. I did hear Don Johnson’s single lo those many years ago.

So…when are we gonna hear Bakula sing on ENT? Should we? Do we want to?

Freakin’ basketball pre-empted this show too. I’m going to put a hit out on Dick Vitale.

Erm… maybe I meant “Vanishing Point” instead? I didn’t get to see it so I didn’t pay attention to which episode I missed.

😕

That’s funny…reminds me of giddy Sulu’s line in “Wolf in the Fold”: “I wonder who it is we’re not supposed to be afraid of.”

You missed “Vanishing Point.” You have not (yet) missed “Precious Cargo.”

Now, now, NCB…If we’re not nice to our little friends, they might not want to play with us anymore.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------😉

Do new episodes start in April or do we have to deal with “Marauders” again?

Uh oh, he’s got **Chicago** on the brain.  
I’m waiting for the inevitable “All That Jazz” Trek parody song.  
“All that ga’gh” or something.

Ah yes, that double finale is supposed to send the ship and the show off in some radical new direction. They want to get the ratings up at least for the third season. Didja read all about it?

Of course I’d have _Chicago_ on the brain… the only thing more slashalicious than Catherine Zeta Jones in a female petitionary would be Hoshi in a female petitionary.

Or Ezri in a female petitionary. Or Jadzia…
