I have a guess.  Since the new season of NEXP is scheduled to start on Sept. 
14, and the episode was the season finali for the prior season, then I say 
the episode will be repeated on Sept. 7.

   Which episode was "Cost of Living" anyway?  And who thought up the

   No, but he DID get to appear on the cover of "TV Guide" standing next to

Does anyone know of an episode guide (ideally with short synopses of the
episodes) to the series ThirtySomething?

There isn't one at montana, and Jaye doesn't know of one. Any ideas?

After watching last night's show, they should drop the black
girl, the Southern girl and the "homeless-helper" guy (sorry
I don't know their names). These people make this show boring.

I don't know how this guy supports himself if he spends "100 hours"
volunteering per week.

Also, if there are people like Jake in the world who cannot hold
on to a job, I hope the producers don't expect me to feel sorry for
him.

The part about Allison and her advertising ideas was completely
bogus. If only advertising was so simple...

They should focus the show more on the married couple.

The Night Strangler was the "sequel" to the Night Stalker.  It was the second
made for TV movie.  It was, in fact, between the original Night Stalker movie
(which may still be the most watched made-for-TV movie of all time, I'm not
sure...) and the start of the series.  For an excellent discussion of the Night
Stalker movies and the TV series, read "Night Stalking", a compendium of the
whole thing.

For those interested, one of the things mentioned in the book is that the
original author of the movie (whose name escapes me -- Dan SomethingOrOther) has
written a script for a third movie and is presently looking for someone to put
it together...

I read the Sex Pistols reference, and that could be it, but I have another.  I 
have atrully horrendous bootleg album of Hendrix doing covers of various songs.
It's called "Call Me Mr. Pitiful" and combines bad performances with henious 
production.  I have not listened to it but I believe he does "Johnny B Good" on
this album.  The feedback on the show was very Hendrix-like.  Just my $0.02

Howard is a NYC-based "shock-jock", and in case you don't know that 
term, it means he's a morning radio personality that does and says 
extremely shocking things in order to get you (read me) to listen 
to him every morning from 6-10 am.  His radio show is syndicated in 
Phila, Wash, DC, and LA, and about to go into Detroit and, I 
believe, Chicago.  His TV show is syndicated also, but into more 
markets.  Yes, there is excessive fascination with Lesbianism, but 
only when it's not excessively fascinated with Male gay activity, 
or people with speech impediments, or things like the "Homeless 
Dating Game" or his own version of "Hollywood Squares", which I 
won't even try to describe - you just gotta see it to believe it, 
and maybe you won't even believe it, then.  His character pokes fun 
at all kinds of bigotry, whether it's racial, or gender (anti-female, 
I mean) or sexual-preference-related (as in the gay and lesbian Shtick) 
or anything else they can thnk of.  He makes fun of it simply by 
imitating it.  In a strange sort of way, he's making fun of bigots the 
way Carroll O'Connor did in "All in the Family", except Howard never 
lets on that he's acting.  As to your last question, "What's this 
about?", I don't think you really mean that.  I think you mean, how 
does this stuff get on the air, and I believe the reason is that for 
some, it's funny and for others, unfortunately, he's saying stuff they 
truly believe.  But that's their problem.  I like to watch, because 
it's funny (and I also enjoy seeing Lesbians kissing each other while 
wearing thong bikinis) <G>.
At least I'm not out robbing banks or raping anyone.

	So?  I saw the same piece of footage on NBC last night (Sunday).  The
plan was for the arrow to pass through the jet of gas rising above the torch.
It was NEVER intended to actually land IN the torch.  Whether the flaming 
arrow actually lit the torch or not (i.e. was there a backup system?) it
theoretically only had to pass OVER the torch to light it.  Seeing the 
footage of the arrow landing in the street behind the stadium proves
nothing.

I can't speak to the ratios, but about the applause being predominant 
over laughter, I was just thinking the same thing on Friday nite.  I 
rarely stay up late enough to see it, but made a point 'cause Howard 
Stern was one of the guests, and I definitley noticed that applause was 
the response almost all the time.  I guess they didn't bother to invest 
in a "LAUGH" sign?  Not that Jay's not funny.  IMO, his material is 
well-thought out as well as generally on the intellectual side - Hey,
maybe that's the problem!  I would think that most of the folks who 
have the time to stand out in front of the NBC studio early enough to 
get seats might not be as intellectually focused as the average guy
(maybe not even as intellectually focused as the average onion <G>).

Too bad people leave out Havey's Night After Night when discussing late

	It was SUPPOSED to go over the cauldron. Security cleared out the area
where the arrow was going to land. The arrow shot was designed to go through
a gas plume coming out of the torch, igniting it. The arrow went directly over
the torch within probable proximity of the gas. And as anyone who has worked
with gas barbeques knows, being close counts.

He makes me laugh.  He does things on TV and radio that nobody else has.  
Is that "talent"?  I don't know, but whatever it is I like it...

Hmmm...  Interesting combination of words.  If what you are trying to
say is "tune in xxx, and hear two local guys rip off Howard Stern", then 
you are of course totally correct.  Don't worry though, Howard will be 
moving into Chicago in the near future and he will *easily* BURY his 
imitators just like he has already done in other major cities such as
New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and Los Angeles...

Well, I haven't liked Kevin much at all throughout, but this past show clinched
it for me.  He has major problems with *everyone* and he constantly brings it
back to race.  I think Julie was right on too and I liked how she stood up for
herself when they argued outside.

Kevin's problem is that he cannot carry on an argument without using his
physical advantage.  If he is getting creamed, like he was with Julie, he
resorts to threatening gestures to intimidate his opponent.  Julie shouldn't
have had to tell him more than once to get out of her face when they were
arguing on the street.  He was obviously a person out of control as he very
simply could *not* get a hold of himself.

His whole business with bringing race into it was ridiculous.  Like Julie
said, yes- there is racism abound, but what does it have to do with anything
they were talking about?  I also think Kevin is a flat out liar.  He denied
a lot of what he did but later he went on to defend his actions.  I'm sorry,
but Julie is a far more credible witness than he is.  


>Can't wait till next week,

I've found myself pretty hooked on this show too.  I sure hope they make
some new ones after the original series runs out.
