I'm sure I'd still enjoy The Graduate if I were watching it right now, but going to get on my soapbox to celebrate Buck Henry for Taking Off and season 1 of Get Smart (to pick two favorites).

I’ve been rewatching NBC’s Saturday Night from the first season. Buck Henry was such a pro on his episodes. You could tell how much the cast loved him, too.

Libby’s Mom:

Just finished watching Home Alone 2 at my child’s request. This music feels like my brain right now.
  Swag For Life Member 9:50pm
Ira:

I think it was out of love for Catherine O'Hara that we watched Home Alone, way back when (though not in the theater). I remember how the previews and commercials made it seem so funny, and then came the realization that every single enjoyable aspect of the movie could be found in said previews and commercials. Luckily, Beetlejuice did not disappoint!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:50pm
Mx. Granny (e/em):

hey ira and folx! very much enjoying this long, luxurious listen!

@Ira - had I seen the previews I’d have to agree. Yes to Beetlejuice and Happy New Year

Ira, I've been trying to figure out who the performers are on this track ever since I saw The Big Cube on TCM a couple of years ago (well, by "ever since" I mean for an hour or two and then dropped it till now). I'll get back on the case.
  Swag For Life Member 10:06pm
Ira:

Gaylord, anything to get you distracted from scatalogical Monkees puns. The discogs page for the 2 songwriters is useless. Pretty sure it's not "The Finks."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:07pm
Gaylord Fields:

AFI check credits it to "The Finks" — which points heavily to it being a studio concoction, as Howard Finkelstein is a co-writer.
  Swag For Life Member 10:10pm
Ira:

We watched it last night, so the memory is fresh (and the flashbacks are inevitable). "The Finks" do a deliriously half-baked miming job at the psychedelic disco.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:15pm
Gaylord Fields:

I recall it being only about 67% as campy as a Lana Turner on acid movie should be.
  Swag For Life Member 10:16pm
Ira:

Very possible that you and I are the only 2 people on the Comments page who have yet to take LSD.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:19pm
Gaylord Fields:

Yes, I'm still not "experienced" — and there's no way it's gonna be as good as '60s movies and TV purports. (New favorite TV acid trip: Martin Milner on Route 66.)
