This post is an answer to the question about the show featuring Jason
Bateman and the actor who plays Steve Rhodes on Married With Children.
The name of the show they were on together was "It's Your Move", which 
also featured Caren Kaye as Bateman's mother and Tricia Cast (now of 
The Young and the Restless) as his sister.
I don't know about getting a station to put on old episodes--I don't know
that it lasted long enough to make it to syndication.  However, I too  
enjoyed it very much and was sorry to see it go.

The actress was actually pregnant, but unfortunately lost her baby, so they

Barry Corbin is a long time character actor and has been in hundreds of
movies and television shows.  He is casted in either roles where he plays a
Texan (usually rich), a cowboy (either a bad guy, or a stupid good guy), or
a high ranking military official (like in 'Wargames').  One of the reasons
he really like NX (it's not NEXP on internet anymore), is because Maurice is
a combination of all these characters.  A rich guy from Texas who has an
extensive military/governmental background who is seen sometime as the bad
guy for his extreme capitalists ideals.  He also played a cowboy in
"Cicely."

I'm sorry I can't help you with specifics because he has done so much.  He
has been in the business for over 30 years.  I did see him recently in
"Lonesome Dove."  He played a dumb good guy.

when I first heard that they intended to do all the Sherlock HOlmes
stories I was very pleased.  I thought that finally there would be
one unified cycle of stories, done right, not like the Basil Rathbone
stories which were either made up, or just used the title of the story
and never the conan Doyle story.  Then they started messing with the
stories and "punching them up".  The worst I've seen was "The Greek

Spoilers Ho!

  You didn't miss much in Covington Cross.  It opens with a tremendous
sword-fight by armored knights in a castle.  Typical Hollywoodesque
battle which ends when an old man enters and yells "How many times
have I told you?  Not in the castle!"  Dad is a widower.  Two eldest
sons are knights and rivals.  Youngest son is a priest-in-training,
but would rather be a knight and spends most of his time tricking the
monk who teaches him.  And, of course, there's the daughter.  Feisty
redhead who prefers crossbows to music lessons, is fooling around with
a young artist who she'd like to marry if she thought her father'd
approve, and has a pout like you wouldn't believe.  Oh, and there's
the father's lady "friend" who's already had four husbands and is
interested in making it five, but isn't really that bad.  
  Plot??  Evil neighbor is interested in making peace between their
feuding families by marrying his son to Sir Thomas's daughter Eleanor.
In reality, the evil neighbors just want the dowry land as a path into
some territory ripe for looting.  Eleanor runs away to be with her
artist-love and spoils that plan.  Father has to duel evil-neighbor-son, 
which turns out to be an ambush.  Fortunately, the kids find out in
time and rush to the rescue of their father.  
  They're rerunning it again on September 11th, if you're still curious
Meanwhile, I'm waiting to see the SCA-types SAVAGE this thing.  The
14th Century just wasn't politically correct, no matter how liberated
the women here may be.

Just my $.02:  Those bits were written for those people.  Granted most
of them are actors not comedians so it was a risk and yes,most of them
should stick to just plain acting, but I guess I'm one of the few who
took it for what it was. An awards show.  Almost all awards shows are
like this so you should expect it.  And just flow with it. Either that
or don't watch it, and just read who won in the paper.  And, incidentally,
Mr. Quayle *did* imply in his infamous speech that Murphy Brown was a bad
example and that single parents were not families.  He also blamed the
"cultural elite" of the media for propagating such things.  So yes,
they did stomp on Quayle that night, but they couldn't make him look any
more foolish than he does to himself.

Most of the presenters were together for a reason.  Very few of them
were just "put together", from what I understand.  Most were either
costars somewhere past, or have new television shows coming up that they
were promoting. It just so happened that some of the women were taller
than the guys.  My favorite was Susan Dey and Jay Thomas.

All in all, I enjoyed it.  I seem to be in the minority here.

They seemed awfully well bathed for people who lived in the 14th century,
didn't they?

My big problem with the show was that it seemed to want to be a comedy,
a heart-warming family values show, an adventure, and _Dallas_ all at
the same time. And the dialogue was so bad that I wonder if the writer
was later found dead at his own hand (ref: the scene where the widow
babe who looks vaguely like Jane Seymour tries to talk the old dude
out of arranging a marriage for Ione).

What cheeses me off is that _CC_ will probably end up lasting for at least
a couple of seasons, while a really good new show like _Arresting Behavior_
will be gone&forgotten within two months.

I don't know... I'll guess I'll look when I get the AP list off of
Compuserve.  I know I did well on the art catagories, and I picked the right
shows but the wrong episodes in others.

At least I'm ahead on this one (I hope).

I know that I did much better on the Art catagories, given out on Saturday.  
ST:TNG won five Emmies (I said they were going to win big) and "Homefront" 
does have the best hair.  On some categories, I got the right show, but 
wrong episode.  Like WRITING, DRAMA SERIES.  I picked "Democracy in America" 
instead of "Soeul Mater."  (I still believe that "democracy" was better 
written.
 
I am happy that "Seinfeld" was the writing award.  "The Pez Dispenser" (show 
last night, Sept 2) demonstrates why the show is the best written sit-com on 
tv.

You might also want to add that even if the first episodes won't be shown on

So the was the actress playing Lady Elizabeth the one who played Guenevere in 
Excalibur ? She looked kinda familiar. I recognised Nigel Terry (from the 
wrinkles under the eyes) as king Arthur. 

As far as the story and accuracy goes, I didnt care much (jeez .. the armor
left a LOT of exposed leather).
But it was fun to see the king again. (It would have been fun if they had 
reused the old Excalibur sword.)
