Now that brings up an interesting question:  What's going to happen when New 
Year's Eve comes around?  I would hope that they somehow celebrate it in an
episode, with Sam leaping into someone on December 31, 19xx, and Al, Gooshie,
and Co. preparing to celebrate First Night 2000.  Now THAT would be awesome!

Sally?  Any word on a New Year's ep?

Hey, I was sitting on the couch about 2 feet from Tommy's desk when
he told me about this, so it's true. He told us all the really funny
lines (and the ending), but of course I am as usual sworn to secrecy.
I can say that Al is firmly convinced that Sam's a vampire and Sam
keeps telling him to get real. There is one subtle and one obvious
in-joke in there and it is going to be a really funny episode. I
mean, in a sick kind of way, but that's what I love about Tommy. :-)

>I'm really having reservations about the Dr. Ruth thing.  Always 

I say, anything that has Sam the prude having to pose as a sex expert
and Dr. Ruth in the Waiting Room giving Al advice on his sex life is
worth an hour of *MY* time.

I watched Doogie Howser last night and it was an episode where he dated a

any other hearing actor I've seen on tv. Better than Mark Harmons's or 
better than William Hurt's in Children of  a Lesser God.  does anyone know

Sam does have one new problem - he has to go around touching people until one
of them turns into The Evil Leaper. Maybe we could have a couple of seasons of
five-minute episodes where Sam keeps getting arrested for public indecency and
has to leap to the next episode.

The NBC "affiliate" in Philly, KYW does not do a good job of keeping
with the network schedule.  They seem to pre-empt far too often.  
I haven't noticed this with the other network affiliates.

Just recently, they pre-empted Quantum Leap and the NBC movie starring 
Anthony Perkins and Rosanna Arquette, ("In the Deep Woods"?).  Instead
they chose to show another movie instead.  What could their "previous
commitment" possibly be for them to do this??  At least, they re-scheduled
both to Sunday.  I wonder if this sort of thing messes up the ratings?

In the past, they have pre-empted prime time shows with an Eagles
pre-season football game.  There are a few shows on NBC that I watch.
I just hope each week that KYW doesn't mess with them.

I wish NBC would get a really affiliate in Philadelphia.

I loved the tubes and the 4 pronged slinky.  I kept trying to figure out
which way was up on that 4 pronged slinky!  I personally thought it brought
a little bit of interesting humor to the town.  Especially when the tubes
were watching Joel golf.

As far as the bubble man (Michael Morgan is the character?), my wife and
I noted a large number of problems.  I have not figured out whether 
the writers are not being careful enough or they are purposely setting 
up something.  As far as some appliances, you can get them completely inert,
the space shuttle and space missions have to be careful about outgassing,
there is a market for some of the stuff.

Allergies are strange things.  I am allergic horribly to rabbits, yet
other rodents I don't have a problem with.  Some people are not allergic
to plants.

That bothered me too.  Why is it that women have to be victimised in
order to take center stage on these tv shows?  This disappointed me as
well.  Another thing that bothered me about the story is the fact that
she was examined alone by that dickweed gyno.  I thought it was a NYS
law that a nurse be present when a doctor (male or female) performed
one of those exams.  That's what I was told, and I've ALWAYS had a nurse
in the room.

Yeah, this has been one of its strengths - keeps the soap opera aspects

Well, once Logan's mother (or rather, his reactions to her) was central to 
the story.  Check out 'Indifference' from the first season for some really
powerful stuff!
