I was watching TBS this afternoon and saw a movie starring the 
actor who plays Maurice (I'm awful with names, please excuse my
ignorance on this actor).  I know I've seen him in other macho
roles, but what are they?  Is there any sort of FAQ for this
thing about specific shows (I know there's one somewhere for
Seinfeld)?

Thanks,

Roy?  I don't have all of the tapes of those shows, but I do have an old

I tried to post from my work account, but I don't think it got there, so I'll
try again from my school account.

Barry Corbin, Maurice on Northern Exposure, also played the Air Force general
in the movie "War Games" with Matthew Broderick and Ally Sheedy.

I was thrilled to see the show win Outstanding Drama Series on last night's
Emmy awards! 

Someone posted a question to which I have not yet seen an answer, and 
I have the same question concerning the music on the show:
why are they not required to give credit to whoever the composer or performer
is?  it's frustrating every time they use some really cool music, then don't
say whose music it is.

Well, speaking as an employee of public television's membership and
lobbying organization (America's Public Television Stations), I can say
that it's not so cut-and-dry. Federal funding is a fairly small percentage
of the total system budget (about 16%), it's true. But for some small
stations, it's a much larger percentage. I can say with absolute
confidence that if federal funding were dropped, some PBS stations and
quite a few NPR stations would go dark. A couple of stations are nearly
there already after massive state cuts over the last two years; loss of
their federal monies would put them over the edge. 

Also, federal monies are extremely important in leveraging other funds,
and the impact of losing federal dollars would go well-beyond just
the CPB appropriation. It's very important to have seed monies in hand
when approaching corporations and foundations for additional support.

In any event, the president signed the bill yesterday.

Wasn't it "Mac", not "Max"?

Blame Granada TV and John Hawkesworth.  Frankly, marc, a lot of the Doyle
stories wouldn't film very well (e.g. The Veiled Lodger, Study in Scarlet,
Valley of Fear) and so, in order to make them dramatically more interesting,
the producers do a little rewriting to "punch them up".  Greek Interpreter
and now Lady Frances are the most blatant examples of this, with Musgrave
Ritual a close third.

But this series *as a whole* is still much truer to the original Canon in
both spirit and execution than any other series of Holmes films has been.
We'll never see Watson (either of him) acting like an idiot, nor will
Holmes be fighting Nazis.  

Pity they botched Hound of the Baskervilles, though.

Well, as one of those who complained about Donna's sudden
re-appearance, I have to say, no, I didn't forget about "Star
Crossed." I know she didn't just come out of nowhere. But it wasn't
just that--it was the suddeness of it, *combined* with the fact
that I didn't like her character as she appeared in "The Leap
Back." When Al's life was in danger, she asked Sam not to go--when
it's very obvious how important Al is to Sam--And from the
conversation between her and Al at the end of the episode, it's
apparent that Al has been much of her support all these years while
Sam was gone...and she doesn't feel anything for Al, not enough to
rescue him? As a viewer, I don't know her as well as I feel I
"know" Al, since she's hardly been around, and it irks me to think
that she outright presented such a choice to Sam.

But the biggest problem I have with the whole situation is that the
episode took everything we thought we'd known, or gotten to know,
over the past few years about the characters of Sam et al, and
totally turned it on its head. Ah, so we've been looking at
everything all wrong these past couple of years? That's a wonderful
feeling.

Just my $0.02.

Spelling has supposedly opened up a Canadian production office in
Vancouver.  He's shoot The Heights for Fox in Vancouver, and another
series for Fox I think also, The Roundtable, in Toronto, with a lot
of location shooting at the University of Toronto, passing for
a private Northeastern American university, of course.  Supposed
this one stars Lisa Dean Ryan of Doogie Howser fame.

Wasn't this the first installment of the first series with Edward Hardwicke

The awards aren't based on "every ten days", they're based on a single
episode.  TNG submitted "Cost of Living" for the costuming and makeup
categories.  This was a pretty bad episode plotwise, but had some very
elaborate costumes and body paint.  QL's costuming generally doesn't
require as much cleverness; since it takes place in the recent past, they
can get much of their stuff from the studio wardrobe collections.  The
exceptions are the episodes that include scenes at Project Quantum Leap,
which have some futuristic wardrobe.  Do you know which episodes QL
submitted for the costuming categories?
