I want so much for it some how to be revived, (picturing a Fri - Sat midnight movie) Even remade.. But the cast is so fabulous together. I looked for it just after news of John Ritter's death and wondered if some cable channel would get ahold of it for a tribute weekend, or if it would show Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054414.post-69136711227359523642009-02-09T23:28:00.000-05:002009-02-09T23:28:00.000-05:00I have it on VHS, bought in 1987, when it was alre...I have it on VHS, bought in 1987, when it was already dated.

I remember the ...I actually do remember this movie. I remember the premise, the poster, and some of the scenes from when it ran on cable the first time (summer 1980, I think). I also remember my grandmother flipped the channel because of ONE suggestive scene which I'm sure (in retropspect) was no more suggestive than what you see on Saturday morning cartoons these days.NiteOwlz / Glenn Page Musichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12366996516978413993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5054414.post-33108164621133418282008-12-09T18:26:00.000-05:002008-12-09T18:26:00.000-05:00Wow.
