Let's see if I can do this from memory... "Oh elders great (?) and strong & wise, appear vefore my seeking eyes" Didn't Billy have to say something like that? (It was Billy Batson, wasn't it?)

Yeah... they drove a Winnebago! Billy and Mentor. I have several bad-quality episodes on VHS, courtesy of e-Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lerxt1990 Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 My wife, who doesnt watch that many shows, is thrilled that Jericho is somewhat resurected. She really enjoyed it, and was really mad that it got initially scrapped for other things she viewed as trite crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah. When I was a kid The Odd Couple was on four times a day in syndication. "Bubble gum cards for kids who don't like sports, great moments in Opera history #13, Madame Butterfly commits suicide." "Try the gum." "It tastes like broccoli." Red River Unger and the Saddle Sores. "I built one house, bird." "Quick eat the dice!" "I can't, I'm diabetic!" Man, this is all from memory! I loved that show!
