What I like about Fool's Paradise: No one is going to be tempted to make ukelele and recorder arrangements of these tunes.
  1:31pm ZZZZzzz:

This Rockin' Davey Allen and Thunderbirds tune is really flat. Hope you found it in the 29 cent bin!

I was away for the last few weeks. Three things I missed: My wife, my dog, and Rex.

she was Aunt Zelda? Excellent! I once got a personal thank you from Rip Taylor at his one man show at El Portal in Los Angeles, because I whooo-hooed when he mentioned doing SIGMUND!

man, it never occurred to me there was a correct term for shows like Trapper John MD and Punky Brewster, but "untreated sewage" is TOTALLY it.

Met THE SPINNERS in Nov.26th 1980 at the WABC-AM studio. They were there to do a radio promo, all they was ask to do was sing "77 W.A.B.CEEEE. They were in the studio for over an hour and they still did not get it right.

Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:38pm Gaylord Fields:

Important Update for Fool's Paradise TV Fans: Current "It's About Time" episodes reverse the premise. Cave idiots now in modern times, instead of space idiots being in prehistoric times.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:42pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Howdy, Fools!
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:44pm Gaylord Fields:

Thanks for interrupting regularly scheduled programming to broadcast that important news bulletin from this field correspondent.
Avatar 🌮 ♥ 2:44pm David Shortell:

@GF
Yeah, the premise was changed mid-season out of desperation! Didn't help, of course.
  2:44pm Hackensack Slim:

@Gaylord Did the transition involve a Caveman in a Spaceship?

@David Shortell: And yet we're all the better for it — two stupid premises!

@Hackensack Slim: Did it ever! It exemplified (and, therefore, killed) that trope.
