“We were both right!

We were both wrong!”

“No wonder it rang a bell but nothing specific came to mind!”

“Ten North Frederick (1958)

"Powerful older man romances gorgeous woman a third his age; daughter gets pregnant by a bandleader who is threatened and bought off by the powerful father, etc etc. Sound familiar? Yes, it's a well-acted Soap with a good cast. If you love Gary Cooper or think Suzy Parker looked marvelous, check it out. But you've seen this kind of thing before - and this is really a dated antique vis a vis values. I just want to know where the "psychotic evil twin sister" is, and other stock Soap characters."

yikes. Who did you say was looking for this, TOWNDAWG? LOLOL

These guys MIGHT be able to find it.”

“was used in many (if not all) episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus.”

“Yeah, its right up there with "That trick never works." (Rocky & Bullwinkle)”

"He's no fun! He fell right OVER!"”

“ARTHUR: Consult the Book of Armaments!

BROTHER MAYNARD: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine to
twenty-one.

SECOND BROTHER: And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade
up on high, saying, 'O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that,
with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy
mercy.' And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the
lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and
breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chu--

MAYNARD: Skip a bit, Brother.

SECOND BROTHER: And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt
thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No
more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and
the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not
count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then
proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being
the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand
Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My
sight, shall snuff it.'”
