Concept:  Parallel universe - one the opposite of the other in form and
function and some history (a little more nebulous than just black and
white).  The universes are separate yet interconnected by history and by
values, although they tend to be opposite.  When you change history in one 
universe, you invariably change it in the other.  The universes never "met" 
until time travel (i.e., Quantum Leap) became a reality.

Or better yet: Don't examine this too closely.

The confusion here is that there are *two* serial killer characters
we're talking about.  Spiner played the one who reconciles with his wife,
while (Derek?) McGrath (who *is* everywhere on Canadian TV) played the nut
who is obsessed with Diane.

Please keep in mind that Sam Mallone is a skirt-chaser (in

order to maintain his appeal to the ladies, he has to maintain
clean language ... fine women are not (usually) picked up with
locker-room talk. Haydn (Coach) already has a woman (last I
heard), so he has no 'need' to refine for the ladies, also
he is in constant contact with 'the locker-room' and all it's
charm (or lack thereof). 

It would not fit with Sam's character to use profanity. It
fits in Haydn's character.

Billie Burke absolutely did not play Topper's wife in the sitcom.  I forget 
her name, but she was a B movie actress in the 40s.  Someone out there help 
me with the name.

I'd rather see Al giving Dr. Ruth advice.  I think he's had

It would be a lot of fun, too.  Especially a mirror shot.

You wuz warned...


Now THAT was a good episode.  Took a whole 30min before we found
out about where Alia was.  I liked that.  I liked Zoe, too.  Deliciously
evil.

What an interesting can o'worms they've opened up...
They "crawled their way out of Hell," working their way up from
petty things like homewrecking to this.  What was interesting was
the use of "they."  I could understand if Alia got "captured" by
Ol' Nick whilst bouncing around, but how did Zoe get caught as well?
Zoe seems to have more at stake than just wanted to see Alia home
safely -- i.e. the parallel isn't quite perfect, since Al doesn't
have a personal involvement in Sam's leaps, other then wanting to see
Sam succeed and one day get home.  Zoe seems more involved than that.
It also appears that Evil takes a bit more active role than Good does,
judging by the ending of the show.

It will be interesting to see what happens when Alia and Zoe returns.

Which reminds me, it was good to see that some shred of consistency 
survived; that Al and Zoe could not see each other.

And finally, good job with the morph effect of Connie->Alia.

Thoughts on the Eeeeevilllll leaper:

1) Somebody mentioned that someone could be using Project Quantum Leap
   'after hours' or something.  Judging by the different effects for the
   imaging chamber door and the leap, that sounds unlikely.  Stolen technology,
   or later use by military or something it could be, especially if they have
   less of an understanding.  If they were PQL or contemporary people, Ziggy 
   should have known about the PEOPLE at least.

2) There did seem to be the possibility that Lothos is controlling the leaps
   somehow, and possibly is controlled himself by the B-man.  Interesting.

3) The 'we've lost two days' lost me:  Did they skip ahead or back?  Skipping
   back would be consistent with the B-man episode.  Didn't things reset there
   too?

I thought this week's episode of Murphy Brown was especially good. I really
liked the end of the show, where Eldon and the baby were both wearing the
same shirt and overalls, and the part where Murphy put the baby's foot in
her mouth and then smiled at him. A very funny and touching episode.

BTW, is the baby's name still a spoiler? I haven't seen any discussion
about the show lately and I don't want to ruin it for anyone.

Lowell also says "I took you to the sewage plant, a place no person could
fail to love, but you got distracted half-way there by all those silly
tide-pools with little creatures in them"

And then...its late, its back at hanger, & Helen is scarfing down the 
contents of her lunch-counter refrig, licking out the pie plates, etc..
she's supposed to have been a fat child who occasionally reverts
under stress (says the show's plotters).

Joe comes in from doing some work, she tells him she got dumped
"by Lowell!", he commiserates, she starts to reflect that perhaps
she goofed up a relationship she *really* regrets ending. 
He gets very thoughtful & wistful & agrees, they begin to neck
(very romantic) & then...they both pull away at the same moment, look in
each others eyes, say, in unison, "naahhh", and exit from opposite sides
of the set.  Great timing.

Hank Azaria does the voices of Mo and Apu (among others) on "The Simpsons."
Yeardley Smith herself has been in other places, such as "Three O'Clock
High," "Brothers" (recurring role as Louella Waters), and "Square One
Television."

Jane Sibbett seems to play yuppie princesses, like Laurie Parr of "The Famous

William Ragsdale has done other television and Ed Winter has been all over

How about most of the cast of Cheers?  

   Ted Danson
   Kirstie Alley
   Woody Harrelson
   George Wendt

Each of these people have been in a few or more movies while doing Cheers.
Especially Ted and Kirstie.

Are you talking about people who did both at the same time, or T.V. and then
movies?  If you are talking about the latter, lets sit down for a few hours
and I'll read off a list of people who were big on T.V. and went on to have
good movie careers.  I'll list a few that immediately come to mind:

   Just think of all the Saturday Night Live people:  Aykroyd (sp?), Radner,
      Chase, Murray, the Belushis, Murphy

   Tom Selleck
   Vic Tayback (in alot of movies, played 'Mel' on Alice)
   Tom Hanks
   Julie Kavner (Rhoda's sister, Lisa Simpson...  in many movies)
   Ed Asner
   Billy Crystal
   Danny Devito

    I first heard mention of a possible early Laurie Hill cancelling during
    the first week of the current season. It had been targeted as the weakest
    new show.  I read somewhere that Roseanne Arnold was trying to get "Coach"
    moved into that time slot because "The Jackie Thomas Show" is ABC's
    planned replacement for "Laurie Hill,"  and she wanted to have Tom's show
    follow hers.  "Laurie Hill" was scheduled in TV Guide last week, but my
    affiliate ran an episode of "Home Improvement" from last season.  While it
    sounds strange to cancel a show that was winning its timeslot, I wasn't
    really impressed with the competition.  That's my weekly timeslot for
    watching the tape of "Seinfeld" I recorded while watching "Home
    Improvement."

So where were you guys on the night that the entire drawing room set from
the BBC production "The House of Eliott" disappeared?

Is the set at this very hour winging its way from the UK to the US?
                                
Hope your alibis are watertight.:-)

Seriously though, this *must* be true. It was mentioned in a newspaper

1.	I had heard a rumor that Cleavon Little died recently.  Can anyone confirm or deny this.  He was real funny as the sheriff of Little Rock in "Blazing Saddles.  It would be a real shame.

2.	Yesterday while paging through this, I saw a little piece about a possible Hawaii 5-0 movie.  Can anyone also elaborate on this a little more.  This i s the first I have heard about it.

Please email me direct.  I dont get on rn that regular.

STUFF DELETED

Well, I know it's not a typical Christmas movie per se, but ...
When I was growing up, they used to show the movie "Yours, Mine,
and Ours" every Christmas eve.  

I loved that movie, and I was saddened when they stopped that
tradition.  I was quite young when they did this, and I can't
remember when it stopped....took some of the tradition out of
my Christmas eve.

We used to watch "A Christmas Carol" which I still like but
that is kind of discomfiting (part of the point I guess).

I have never seen "It's a Wonderful Life".  

I loved to watch the t.v. shows, too

Frosty the Snowman
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Charlie Brown Christmas show (can't recall the name)

Others whose names escape me.  Now, I get to watch some of these
shows with my daughter, who is four.
