Jennifer is the worst, at least in the early seasons. I don't like precocious child characters that are way smarter than a child should be. It's rather odd.
 
Lol I have. I was sitting there going "Is that Tom Hanks? No, it can't be??". I imdb'ed him and confirmed it.
 
Thanks guys I wanted to know that too..... I used to love Family Ties....... LOL at Mallory. Seriously to parents get kids as dumb as her? And the blonde daughter she rocked.. I loved her and thought she was so cool when we used to watch the show.... It's on digital now cool.

The one character that really did give me the shits was Skippy... Talk about stereotypes........
 
The Mr and I nearly got into an argument over FT, he was saying something about Sally Struthers and referencing the South park ep and I was saying 'no it is Tina Yothers' and he was all 'no you idiot you just made that name up'. So I asked Mr Google and I was right and then he said 'well who the hell is Sally Struthers!?'

I love when I win these battles. (which is most of the time. One time he swore black and blue that the Dire Straits song went 'money for nothing and the cheques are free' uhh no I think the CHICKS are free.
 
The chicks are free. I Love Dire Straits. The Brothers in Arms concert was the first concert I ever went too. Big mistake going to one of the best concerts of all time as my first. No concert ever since has compared to it.
 
I have now been educated in the real words to the family ties theme song.

I always thought it was...

What would we do baby, without love. LOL
 
I thought the ABBA song Waterloo was Wanadoo - my mum nearly died laughing over that one and still uses it against me to this day!
 
Gutted!

I've just learnt that the current series will be the final of Spicks and Specks.
Apparently Hillsy, Myf and Alan want to do other things, and wanted to go out while the show was still at its peak.

:O NOOOOOOOOO!

though i thought it might be ending soon, No other show has come close to getting the 'quiz/comedy show' genre right.

I hope what ever Hillsy does he doesnt leave 'lesser stars' Brough and warhurst out in the cold with no decent job. When Sideshow ended (:( ) Paul brought whats her face with him to GNW.....

Good news on that front. Hilly will be doing more of In Gordon Street Tonight, and both Myf and Alan are reported to be in talks with the ABC to do other things.

And I agree, even though it's a family friendly copy of Never Mind The Buzzcocks, S & S is/was far superior to any of the quiz/panel comedy shows that have tried to emulate it.

It will be sadly missed.
 
every time clips of Oprah's last shows appear on TV I have to leave the room. Shes why the word "smarm" was invented.
