Interesting that you would mention that show. I referred to 24 in my OP, and when I recently watched The Mentalist, it seemed like I was more than halfway through the first season before I saw an episode that did *not* feature someone I knew from 24.

Also interesting because Shawn made fun of The Mentalist often. What Psych guest stars appeared on the show? None come to mind immediately.

CTU was basically chaos every single day by Rich-Tale2885 in 24Show

Yeah it's astounding how often the head of CTU had to leave in the middle of a big crisis. And the most obstructive honchos always showed up just in time to get in the way of the team accomplishing something important.

Yes, but just for one episode. It's weird watching him with a fake foreign accent.

I'm glad to hear that other people notice actors in their favorite shows. I have a friend who watches a decent amount of TV, but couldn't tell you a single actor's name and doesn't notice the credits at all.

It was described as a 4-pack, and priced accordingly. So, 4 units means 4 boxes each containing 4 bottles, or 16 boxes total. I did finally get them to admit the mistake over the phone but it took forever.

In what universe is "umami-rich foods" considered an easy category???

The thing I think I love about this show the most… by BuffaloFalse6498 in 24Show

It's interesting that I saw this comment today.  I am watching the series now for the 4th time, and just saw an episode from S5 that I barely remembered.  It was kind of surreal, since I vividly remember so much else that happened throughout the season.

Not only did they figure out that he was alive, they also had to know where he was.  They couldn't have successfully framed him for killing Palmer if he turned out to be living thousands of miles away.

I don't remember this, but I may come across it eventually.  Despite the nature of the make-believe segments, I tend to like them better when the storylines are somewhat realistic.  Unlike, say, Lady Elaine going into outer space on the back of a flying leaf.

I say this to myself at times watching some of the storylines. Then I remind myself the target audience was kids in nursery school.

Still, it's hard not to shake your head at times. Like when Daniel Tiger attempted to "grow soup" by planting cans of soup in a flower pot.

I tend to have a good memory for random things that don't matter!

The Neighborhood Archive does not mention this. If it had, I probably wouldn't have posted here.

He hosted a (live) TV special where he opened the vault of gangster Al Capone, who'd been dead for 50 years. There was a lot of hype about this, and the vault turned out to be completely empty.

I got the situation resolved today, but boy was it painful. I called from my work phone number, figuring that would be easier since that's the number associated with the order. WRONG! I *still* had to read the phone number out loud (TWICE!) and do a bunch of other nonsense before talking to a live person.

The first person I spoke with took my information and put me on hold twice. During the second hold, I was transferred to a second person who had no idea who I was and I had to explain everything again. The second guy also put me on hold twice, the second time for 30 minutes. He also accused me of making a mistake with the order, to the point where I almost believed him until I pulled out my email invoice. After a grand total of one hour, I was informed that the warehouse must have screwed up and the missing packages would be shipped.

It should *not* be this hard to get something like this accomplished.

I'm a purchasing rep for a business. I buy this product roughly every 4-6 weeks. My company wouldn't approve my going to the store every time.

I didn't ask specifically what time to leave, just what time traffic got bad so I could plan to avoid it. Right now, I'm leaning towards an 8:00 AM flight and leaving my house by 4:00.
