Tony Danza
Tony Danza I was just watching a clip from Taxi with Tony Danza. It was the episode where Reverend Jim takes his driving test. “What does a yellow light mean?” Do you remember that episode? So funny. That scene featured pretty much everyone from the cast of Taxi, but this blog will be dedicated to […]
Penny Marshall
Penny Marshall Penny Marshall, Gilda Radner, Lucille Ball. Those are my three funny ladies. And as of last Monday night [12/17/18], all three of them are now gone. “One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight! Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!” Penny Marshall was known to most as Laverne DeFazio on the 70’s sitcom Laverne & […]
Boy Meets World
Boy Meets World I loved TGIF on ABC back in the 90’s. It was a great time. Although I probably should have been out partying and dating like most people my age, I preferred to plop my butt in front of the TV. Some of the shows on the Friday night line-up were Perfect Strangers, […]
Leif Garrett Part II
Leif Garrett Part II I’ve already written a blog about Leif Garrett, but I feel the need to write another. (See what I did there?) Leif Garrett was the Justin Bieber of the 1970’s. Leif was a gorgeous blonde boy who graced the covers of most teen magazines in the mid to late 70′s. I […]
Jeff Conaway
Jeff Conaway I was sad to hear about Jeff Conaway’s death. I know it was several years ago [2011], but it bothered me. I feel like I grew up with him. I loved the movie Grease and never missed Taxi. I wasn’t a huge fan of his, but he was just kind of always there. […]
Lance Kerwin
Lance Kerwin Even though I think I look like a female version of him a little bit (and I’m adorable), I never thought Lance Kerwin was gorgeous or anything. He was in my teen magazines when I was a kid, but I didn’t get it. I guess he was cute, but I was into Leif […]
Look Away
Look Away Look Away by Chicago was the number one song on this day in 1988. I was in college at the time and had been a fan of Chicago for over a decade by that point. I wasn’t hip to the whole Peter Cetera leaving or anything like that. Their music was good. That’s […]
Bo Donaldson & The Heywoods
Bo Donaldson & The Heywoods Do you remember this Bo Donaldson & The Heywoods big hit? Billy, don’t be a hero. Don’t be a fool with your life. Billy, don’t be a hero. Come back and make me your wife. And as he started to go, she said “Billy, keep your head low.” Billy, don’t […]
The Partridge Family Episode #18
The Partridge Family Episode #18 Hello! I’m glad you’ve decided to join me for my review of The Partridge Family Episode #18. This episode is entitled Soul Club and originally aired on January 29, 1971. I love this episode because it stars Richard Pryor and Lou Gossett, Jr. who are very funny. The Partridges save […]
Tom Wopat
Tom Wopat I’ve recently started watching the Netflix series Longmire which stars ruggedly handsome Robert Taylor and La Bamba star Lou Diamond Phillips. The show ran from 2012-2017. Tom Wopat showed up in the last couple of seasons as Sheriff Jim Wilkins. Tom Wopat was born on September 8, 1951 in Wisconsin. I think he’s […]
Physical
Physical Physical by Olivia Newton John was the number one song on this day in 1981. It spent ten weeks at number one and was Olivia’s biggest hit. I didn’t love the song. It seemed kind of cheesy to me. If it comes on the radio now, I turn the channel. Physical was written by […]
Sebastian Bach
Sebastian Bach Sebastian Bach was one of my favorite people on Celebrity Fit Club back in 2010. (It was a reality show where stars try to lose weight.) He was a bit scary to look at but he seemed very cool. I was never a heavy metal fan and had never even heard of Skid […]
