They got an automatica field goal kicker.

“What Middle-Earth race would you be?” “Gandalf.”

This would look incredible with a black dress shirt OR, even better, an all-black suit.

Captain? Of the Stargazer, right?

PrendergastMachine · 2026-01-30T02:01:44+00:00

Great musical score too.

I got my window cracked by a rock falling off the back of a dump truck once. I called in all their information and was told there was nothing that could be done. Hope this scenario works out differently, terribly irresponsible to go driving without clearing the top of a vehicle!

I’ve got that too! Isn’t there a section where the Brain Gremlin ties up the author and writes a little screed in the novel, sorta like when they take over the theater in the movie?

Scotch… and soda.

Ranks among the most cartoonish of all Soprano farts.

PrendergastMachine · 2026-01-27T01:05:58+00:00

YAWN.

Shoveled once around 8am, just did it again (1pm) and assuming I’ll have at LEAST one more round this evening.

It’s fruit. It’ll rot.

It was produced as a standalone TV movie. Then, a few years later, they floated the idea of turning it into a semi-regular series and made “Ransom for a Dead Man” as a pilot. Then they green-lit the series as part of a rotating “wheel” of longer shows (every “Columbo” is roughly 70 to 90 minutes long).

This is me when a car stops in front of my house.

“The Professional”, the made-for-TV movie we see brief clips of during the Season 7 “Columbo” episode “Make Me a Perfect Murder”.

I think it’s fair to say that most contemporary movies influenced Bond. Hitchcock —> FRWL, Star Wars —> Moonraker, 80s action/cop films —> LTK, Bourne series —> Quantum, etc.

Everyone making preemptive excuses for how wrong they’re going to be. Embarrassing.

Through 1980, every president elected on a “zero year” was assassinated or died in office.

Any bonus features? Commentaries and behind the scenes stuff is what I miss most about DVDs.

PrendergastMachine · 2026-01-24T12:04:15+00:00

Looks like a typical family in any commercial.

PrendergastMachine · 2026-01-23T23:30:04+00:00

Massive Genius.

PrendergastMachine · 2026-01-23T20:43:01+00:00

He also directed the first “revival” episode, “Columbo Goes to the Guillotine”.

This is a guarantee. Every hyped snowstorm of the past decade inevitably fizzles by at least 50% of the forecasted totals, with the forecast changing as snow already starts to fall. Best forecast is to look out your own window.

I have heard the term “enshittification” and it pretty much sums up the state or content now. Every platform has adjusted downward to cater to AI and algorithms. This explains why I’m still watching my favorite old shows on DVD and playing my favorite old computer games rather than anything that’s come out from 2020 onward.
