"The Middleman" (new TV series)
Has anyone watched this? The NY Times gave it a terrific review, so I gave the first two episodes a try last night. It's a cute X-Files parody, trying to be Pushing Daisies/Moonlighting/Ghostbusters . . . Two secret agents overthrowing comic-book villains. The script isn't bad, but I simply cannot g...

"I've had it up to here with your bring-downs!"
Gosh , that was hilarious: the bad writing, the bad acting, the wonderful pale-orange bouffant wiglets! I want me a pale-orange bouffant wiglet now. At least a foot and a half high. The only thing that could have improved it would have been casting Ethel Merman rather than Edie Adams as Ernest Borg...

Max Linder on TCM (late April 13)
I have such a crush on Max. He's nothing like Chaplin, Keaton, Lloyd; you have to see him to appreciate him. They are showing Troubles of a Grass Widower (1912), Max Takes a Picture (1913) and Seven Years bad Luck (1921) tonight.
I wish they would show his daughter's documentary on him!

"Burke's Law" finally on DVD
It's not a movie, but this early '60s detective show had some amazing guest stars. I remember my parents wouldn't let me watch it (on too late). Finally, the first season (1963-64) is being released, at the end of April. The guests on the first season alone include Suzy Parker, ZaSu Pitts, Ann Hardi...

Put me in mind of other films, same theme. ...... mel That's the 1935 remake of the fabulous 1933 Viktor und Viktoria , starring the equally fabul...
