I can see Tom Hanks in that picture but Hanks is “America’s Dad” - he could never be so menacing.

Reminds me of my favorite line from the late Mitch Hedberg: ” I used to take drugs. I still do, but I used to too”. Ironically, he died of a drug overdose.

FYI - A&C Meet Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde will be airing on Svengoolie on Saturday, September 11th.

Not much love on here for Mannix. The guy was like a superhero. In eight years, he was knocked unconscious 55 times and shot 17 times! That's dedication!

What, no “Invisible Man”? edit - d’oh, I overlooked it - first one you listed. Like I said, I’m old.

I’ve always thought the original Universal horror classics should be shown every year as a Halloween tradition. I’m talking about “Frankenstein”, “Dracula”, “The Wolf Man” and “The Invisible Man”. Of course, I’m old. Speaking of which, it’s funny to think that these movies will be 100 years old before long.

Can't believe no one mentioned Ratso Rizzo's apartment. Kind of a fixer-upper but still cozy.

4. Carol Burnett?

I love "The Natural". I'm a lifelong baseball fan that played into my forties so I tend to be biased towards movies about our national pastime. Also, the movie was filmed in Buffalo (I grew up 20 miles away). I played ball with and against a few guys that were in the movie as extras. I haven't seen it in a few years and missed it today but it pops up on tv quite often so I'm sure I'll watch it again soon. Redford had a nice swing.

MM must’ve watched “Animal House” like it was a documentary. “Nothing is over! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!!”

My biggest reason for missing a "classic" movie is that it stars either Joan Crawford or Bette Davis (or both). I'm not saying I've never seen one of their movies - I've just seen enough to know I don't want to see anymore. So off-putting,

I bet Biden knows what state Kansas City is in. Trump doesn’t. (Thinks it’s in Kansas). I had hoped Trump would only embarrass our nation for four years. Unfortunately he just won’t go away.

I'm looking forward to this. Growing up, I watched A&C movies every Sunday morning on WPIX (NYC). In hindsight, it appears that the station only had access to the films they made at Universal. Most of the films scheduled to air are their non-Universal movies which I've seen only once or twice each and haven't seen in several years. The Universal films they're showing are their biggest hits (Buck Privates, A&C Meet Frankenstein, etc.). Can't wait.

They all starred with Glenn Ford?
