The Twilight Zone: Hocus-Pocus and Frisby (1962)
Immenently Watchable and that's no Lie
One of the few comedic Twilight Zones that's actually really good. We have Floyd The Barber from Andy Griffith Show,The stock in trade Old Geezer dude from Many old westerns,and lovable old Frisby. It also has that cool spacecraft interior that I believe was used in the Sci Fi classic Forbidden Planet.Or else The Day The Earth Stood Sill.Plus the new guys in town are driving an exotic Renault(I think) sports car back in the days when European automobiles were known as "Foreign Jobs" in the U.S.. The whole idea of harmonica as weapon is a hoot.And the fact that Frisby's buddies love him despite being the fact he's a total BS artist is a heartwarming moment.
Saturday Night Live: Steve Martin/Jason Mraz (2009)
Not even Fair to Middlin'
Just got done with SNL here on the west coast and ExcUUUUSE ME,I was not impressed. Steve Martin seemed tame & tired.
Edible Pampers were gross and sadly the highpoint of the show.I'm sure the Pepsi ads will leave the majority of the Super Bowl audience scratching their heads.Is MacGruber considered classic SNL now? Oh please. SNL has devolved into sophomoric poop & fart jokes and has really lost its edge.
The old Buck Henry pedophile baby sitter sketch from the 70s would never even air in today's world.That was gutsy and hilarious TV. Now its "he's blind", "He's got bad hair","He's got a gun" Well,har de har har
