    Carol Burnett Show: Bump up the Lights

    I remember that clip. Dick van Dyke was in that one too. She got to the end and called him a uhm...rather unflattering name. and she was so deadpan about it too. but I have two favorties. Both are also Conway pieces. I like the one where he demonstrates the vacuum that's "so simple...

    Dick Van Dyke reunion

    yeah I liked that part when Vicki just went off about carol's driving as Mama though. That was funny. Overall I was very impressed by how quick all of them were on the draw. I mean, Tim Conway used to be mean to Harvey Korman but the other night he was just ruthless. Very funny. --matt

    Ghostbusters: Back In Action!

    really? I had no problems teloing Peter from Ray. If you think of them in termso fht cartoon sereis it mkes it a bit easier. I think that's one of the things I like most about the design. The 4 guys look like a hybrid design of the cartoon and the actual 4 actors. They do a great job of...

    New Series 9 line up!

    I voted for Lips. Althought right now I think Pops is the best sculpt. Lips is the figure I really can't believe is being made and I really can't believe we're finally getting.
