Linda Cardellini Is Hotter Than Ever. Freaks and Geeks. Brunettes Going Blond.

Does anyone else love the show Freaks And Geeks? I do. Above is Linda Cardelinni. She was on the show. She never really did it for me in the looks department. I mean she was OK but I never thought she was THAT hot. But have you seen her lately?

Man has she aged well. Maybe it's the shaped brows and the makeup I'm not sure. But either way....VavaVOOOM! She's 37 by the way.

Now here she is as a blond.....

Whoa. Stunning. Lots of gals can't pull off the blond thing when they're naturally dark brunette but she does it well. I still like her better as a brunette though.

And here she is showing that she still has a sense of humor.....

Oh beeeeeehaaaaaaaveee!!!! I'm not sure where she was speaking when she did this but would love to find out. And I wonder if she hates that this is one of the photos that shows up first in a Google image search. Also, she does have a long tongue. Am I right? 

A Little Donny And Marie For You. Uncle Miltie and Paul Lynde Too.

Here you go. A little Donny and Marie Show action for you. And if you ask me, Marie still looks hot. Except I don't like her with the short hair here. Also, check out Milton Berle and Paul Lynde.

And you may remember that I mentioned a long time ago that I can do an imitation of Michael Landon's face when he cries? Remember? Well I just remembered after watching this that I can also do an imitation of Milton Berle's face when he does this goofy ass expression. But I haven't done it in years so don't ask me to do it for you.

Remember When Blackman On Strangers With Candy Did That Dance? Charleston Style.

Remember when Principal Blackman did that dance at the end of that episode of Strangers with Candy? No. Not from the picture above. From the end of that one episode when they dance? Yeah you do. You don't? OK here's where he got it from. I'm going to practice it (it's the fancy footwork the first dude is doing) ......



Here are some other people doing it. It's called Charleston Style. And they do work in the arm swing and leg kick of the regular Charleston that we all know. And love.

What About The THIRD Choice? Thurston's Bitch. Gilligan's Island.

You always hear the question: "Who would you pick? Ginger or Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island."  Here's Ginger:

Nice. Now here's Mary Ann:

Oh yeah. I'd go with Mary Ann like most men. What do you think the percentage is? 75% to 25%? Probably.

But the real question is...how many people get mad and say, "Mary Ann or Ginger? Why don't I get to choose Lovey???" Here she is:

Don't lie. You want it. Look at her asleep...helpless...ready for the taking....Thurston is probably counting his money. Greedy ass bitch. Not tending to her needs...Mmmmmmm...Uh....I gotta go.

Regal Beagle Is Destination For Chester County Blogger. Squaresville.

I'm thinking of heading down to the Regal Beagle later after I finish this new pickup line I've been working on. What rhymes with Sagittarius?

Naaaaa. Naaaa. Naaaaaa.

But I have to tell you that when I did an image search for the Regal Beagle look at this glorious picture I found....

HA!! Dude on the left is sooooo squaresville. Am I right? Canary yellow shirt, plaid tie hanging at clown's length. Brown slacks. Uncool, robotlike pose. No confidence whatsoever..

Now my man on the right on the other hand. Where does one begin?

What do you think is happening in this picture? And why is there a "cashier" plaque on the table? And do you think the painting with the woman peaking over his shoulder was strategically placed there or was it an accident?

Please share you opinions.

Deborah Van Valkenburgh And MORE! Too Close For Comfort.

Remember this chick from Too Close for Comfort? Deborah Van Valkenburgh.  

Here was her sister:

Nice gettup.

And here was the straight neighbor or something:

I never saw a full episode of that dumbass show.

But you did. And you liked it.

Remember These Terrible Sitcoms? Hello Larry. 70''s And 80's.

Here are some sitcoms that I wouldn't even spend 5 seconds to stop and make fun if I passed them on the dial. Although a few will never see the light of day so I'm safe.

Fish - Hated this show. Especially that slimy looking creep in the 33 Jersey. His mouth moved weirdly when he talked like he had marbles in there. But I did see Abe Vigoda coming out of my hotel once in LA.

Hello Larry - Different Strokes spin off. Great career move McLean Stevenson. Hmmmm stay on M.A.S.H or go on Hello Larry? Let me see.... Except Kim Richards there on the right? I used to have a crush on her. Did you know she's Paris Hilton's aunt?

Makin' It - They tried to ride the coat tails of Saturday Night Fever. And failed. And even used Travolta's sister in the cast. Nice try. But catchy gay ass theme song.

Jennifer Lived Here - Boy lives with a hot and sassy ghost. Dumb. But I had some drinks with that kid (as an adult) in a hotel bar a few years ago. He was thrilled to be recognized.

What A Country - Any show that has a 6:30 Saturday time slot is a failure in my book. Hated this show!

Gimme a Break - No YOU give me a break. Never could take more than a few minutes of this nonsense before angrily turning the channel. Why are there so man fat black ladies with attitude on sitcoms?

They're just a few random ones. There are so many more.

It's A Cookbook! Scary Moments As A Kid. The Devil's Rain. To Serve Man.

Remember those moments as a child when you watch something on TV and it scares you so badly you look back and think, "I can't believe I didn't have a heart attack."

The other day I was thinking of when my son and I were on a run of watching horror movies. My son was about nine. And a friend of mine looked at me like a was crazy. But to tell you the truth he was never that scared. He thought the movies were fascinating. In fact, the more we watched the more I thought, "Is something wrong with him? Why don't these movies scare him?"

Then it all changed. We had been watching mostly modern day movies but I picked up some Twilight Zone episodes. Remember the episode, "To Serve Man?" With Lurch from The Addams Family as the alien? And the aliens seem friendly. They have a book called, "To Serve Man."

Well at the end of the episode as people  are getting on the space ship it's revealed that, "To Serve Man! (get ready...here it comes) It's a COOKBOOK!"

My son grabs by arm and starts yelling, "OH MY GOD! AHHHHHH!!!!"

And proceeds to freak out. He was spooked for the next few weeks. He said later it was so terrifying to him because of the shock that people were innocently getting on the ship they had no idea they were going to be eaten. Pretty spooky huh?

Guy Fieri. Douche McDouche. Stupid Quotes and Backward Sunglasses.

Can you imagine if you had to interact with Guy Fieri daily? *begins to tie noose* But do you know what? I watch his show all the time. For all the douchy behavior I have to tune in! I have to watch it I tells ya! Even though I'm constantly yelling out, "Oh come on. Shut up!"

How much of his personality do you think is a show and how much do you think is real? I'm guessing that a lot of it is how he really acts. Here are a few of the stupid things he's said:

“This is kind of like hitting the nitrous button on a food career. This is full throttle.”
  
"On like Donkey Kong."

"Dude I've been sticken by chicken!"

"I wanna be the ambassader of chimichanga flavor town!"

And he always has to look right in camera when he says stuff like this. Way to be subtle Guy.

Ive got two words. Ohhhhh BROTHER!

And what's with the backward sunglasses? I'm sure he didn't make it up. Where and when did that originate? And if you're doing a TV show why the hell wouldn't you just put your sunglasses off camera? Stupid.

Battle of the Network Stars! Lynda Carter. Gabe Kaplan. Adrian Zmed.

Here are some pictures from Battle of the Network Stars. Remember that? Stars from the three TV networks competing. It ran from 1976 - 1983.

Lynda Carter. Yowza! You can even see areola!! Before the days of the Internet seeing nipple on TV was like finding gold in them thar hills! Maybe that's why I'm a nipple man. Boob size doesn't matter to me. But give me a nice pair of nips (preferably two) and I'm in!

Peter Urich will you please put some pants on? Seriously.

Ann Jillian. I never thought she was hot. But on a related note she was on a short lived show called "Jennifer Lives Here" back in 1983. I was traveling one time and at a bar I saw the kid that was on the show. I also recognized him from being the kid that was on the first episode of Cheers. I approached him and we had a nice chat. (To read a post about other famous people I've met click here).

Something for the ladies. Oh brother. Look at Zmed.

Howard Cosell: So Gabe how do you think you'll do in today's competition?

Gabe Kaplan: Forget that! Do you think Dr Zibbs will reference me in a blog post when he writes about the Philly art museum on  August 1, 2012? Do ya? Also, what do you think of my look? The hair? The stache? Honestly.

Thoughts On Eight Is Enough. 70's 80's TV. Dianne Kay.

A few thoughts on Eight is Enough:

1) Nancy was the hottest (see picture above).

2) Nicholas was an annoying troll with a huge head.

3) In seventh grade I called into the Jerry Lewis telethon and got to talk to Dick Van Patton. I think I pledged $5. I need to get around to paying that one of these days.

4) The theme song is the gayest theme song ever recorded. See below.

Irish Spring Commercial and Some Trivia For Ye'

Remember this stupid Irish Spring commercial from 1979? I hated it. Trying to hook people in with the Irish thing and the cutting open of the soap with the pocket knife.



But here's some trivia for you. Do you know who that babe is in the commercial? It's Cindy Morgan. The chick from Caddy Shack. Remember?

Here she is:

Burt Mustin. Brady. All In The Family. Old Dude.

Remember Burt Mustin? Sure you do. He was that super old dude that was on the Brady Bunch "Jesse James" episode. And All The Family. And other things. He always reminded me of my Aunt Josie who was really old too.

Here are a few pictures. Not sure what the second two are from. Do you?

Ricky From Partridge Family. Ricky Segall.

Ahhh-Haaaa!! I KNEW you were Googling your name Ricky Segall from The Partridge Family. So what you been doing for the last 40 years? I heard you were a priest or something.

If you want me to interview you send me an email at Lebner1 at Yahoo dot com.

OK. Keep it real.

Dick Van Dyke And Falling Over The Ottoman.

Man I used to love the Dick Van Dyke Show. I wish it was in reruns more.

When I was a kid and it was in reruns I was pretty good at imitating the opening trip scene. Here it is:

Something To Cheer You Up. Van Der Beek.

When you're in a meeting today....

And things are really intense.....

Try not to laugh.....

When you think of this:

Who Else Loves Bobby Bitman and Sammy Maudlin? And Skip.

This might be my favorite SCTV sketch of all time. Except Sammy Maudlin didn't do his classic laugh in this one where bangs his hands in between his thighs.

And I miss my man John Candy.

The Semonski Sisters. Lawrence Welk. Jeepers Creepers.

Haven't posted a Lawrence Welk video in a while. This is the old Semonski sister. And I'm not posting this as a joke. I like this. It's an old Johnny Mercer song.

My favorite sister is the one in the the middle on the top row. Reminds me of a friend.

So do you guys like it or what?

Bitch Don't Know How To Make Coffee. Flowers Almost Killed.

This chick probably had it coming to her. Being that her coffee was so terrible and all. Good thing she discovered where the best coffee comes from. The mountains.

And look at her expression at the end where she pours a cup of her new, non-crappy coffee and for a second thinks it still may not be up to the high standards of the King of the Castle.

Good thing for her he was satisfied with Folgers. Good thing.

Foster Brooks Roasting Rickles. Comedians. 1970's.

I was just looking for Don Rickles stuff on Youtube and came across this Dean Martin roast of Foster Brooks roasting Don Rickles. Oh my God I was tearing up laughing.

What do you think?
