It Happened One Christmas (1977)
Simply Dreadful!
This was the first version I saw of this story back in the 70's as well, but I got to see the classic Jimmy Stewart version in the 80's and THAT is the ultimate version. The acting in this TV version is just horrible, all the actors walk through the scenes like it was a high school play and the emotion and passion of the original is wiped away. Horrible! Jimmy Stewart gave the best acting perhaps ever in It's a Wonderful Life and never got enough credit since he made it seem so effortless. One thing that amused me in this version watching it again tonight was seeing a young Christopher Guest as Harry Bailey. Who knew???
Nip/Tuck (2003)
Enough loafing, Murphy!
To make up for the fact that you were busy making a movie instead of focusing on season 3 of Nip/Tuck you should REALLY focus on season 4 and work twice as hard to make up for that disastrous season. It started out good but by mid-season it all fell apart (the spa with sperm facial cream opened by Julia? The white supremacist story line?)These all went nowhere. The Carver mystery was so compelling for so long and WHAT a disappointment that it turned out to be someone so obvious and convenient. What had been a great show fell flat on it's face this past season. Let's get back in gear!! Put the family back together again, put the practice back into high gear and let's see the jet set lifestyles again!
