I was five when Diver Dan aired. Now fifty, I can still remember the voices, premises and all the characters. Now that show had to be that amazing to have had lasted in my head all these years.Like usual the Fishes are plotting again Diver Dan for stepping on their toes again. Does Dan fall for their deadly plots this time? Stay tuna'd, I do know one thing, Baron Von Kuda, is a Pisces, and he works for scale, a fin an hour. In obvious pun I will leave you now and not a moment sooner. I love that fact, when Dan was being filmed, they were savvy enough for the time line to film it through a fish tank to make it more authentic. Diver Dan should be aired on Saturdays for new children to view.

I was on the edge of my seat through this movie. Phil Austin, who plays a gun salesman had a small roll but as they say "No small rolls only small actors." He does a great job setting up the whole plot and raising the level for those viewing. I would watch it again just to watch Phil. Most movies they put on television cause me to flick through the channels, you know surf through but when I hit this movie it took me by the collar and sat me in my seat then held my attention. Like a Shadow Parker book, the whole movie takes you on a ride and doesn't let you out until the ride is over. The director does a good job and would seek out more of his work.

Any dish, made with Abi's hands has got to be great. She is hot, she cooks, she is a dish that can serve me anytime. This is all about Hells Kitchen so anything else she has done doesn't count. Now, where is my bib? I would rather have her cook the food then a Dom Deluise or anyone that may sweat on my food. Now as for Hells Kitchen, I only watched it for her and a few others, the guy ranting through the whole mess was boring to me. Give me a blonde with an English accent and I am a viewer every time. By Jove, I think she has got it. Anyone that says he is sick of her must be looking for attention or some other lime lite wannabe. Any female that doesn't like her must be ugly but beauty is only skin deep but remember this folks, ugly is too the bone, make mine a T-bone.

You see folks, in 1974; the "Uncle Floyd Show" then consisted of cameraman Marc Nathan and Uncle Floyd Vivino. Floyd used to play to an all kids under ten audiences. Enter Pat Cupo a local actor who did characters giving Floyd a break. In mid season in walks Robert DiCaterino who did many characters as well but his main gig was being Groucho Marks. For three years these cast members did live shows and gave the more growing adult audiences a fun filled show. By 1977 Pat and Rob had left the show and thus the DVD. The cast grew and the chemistry is set. Sit back and relax as you laugh your buttocks off and see why this show was a hit for over thirty years.

Joe E. Ross's Gunther Tootie's "Ohh Ohh" will always be his catch phrase and the then skinny "Muldoon" played by Fred Gwinn better known to younger generations as Herman Munster were a perfect match in this awesome comedy classic. Trivia Fact. The studio they filmed in was in New York and the number of the studio was 54. Yes this later became the famous studio54 disco palace of the seventies. Grampa Al Lewis also was in this comedy classic. The theme song will always be great in my mind There's a hold up in the Bronx, Brooklyn's broken out in fights. There's a traffic jam in Harlem thats backed up to Jackson Heights, There's a scout troop short a child kruschevs due in Idlewild (Now known as Kennedy airport) CAR FIFTY FOUR WHERE ARE YOU?

This comedy was about two NY cops Toody and Maldoon who where doing everything but what they were supposed to be doing which was being policemen. Thats why everyone is screaming "Car 54 where are you?" If you every get to see this television program from 1961 go for it. The movie was nothing like the original.

I personally, being a huge fan of my mentor's the Firesign Theatre loved this film. Rarely seen on film, these for or five crazy guys do a great job in a live version of "Waiting for the Count of Monty Christo ( or someone like him ) The other sketches scattered into the film is just icing on the cake. The music that was preformed live was also great. I recommend this to all old Firesign Theatre fans as well as new ones. Remember to vote Papoon for president in 2020. Riddled into the movie throughout is a campaign to elect George Papoon for president. Phil Proctor, Pete Bergman, David Ossman and Phil Austin as well as Tiny Ossman and Annalee Austin make this film come together for us. It is a rare treat and I would see it again if I could find it. It is most likely floating around in space looking for its social value. It is pure fun so go for it.
