Flashbacks: White Comedies

After doing black comedies...it was about time I paid tribute to white comedies of our time. Just to mention but a few...many have been left out...Nurses,Golden Girls, Silver Spoons


Tato will unleash a prize if you can get me pictures of the following. And please note I'm not asking for pictures of the actors/actresses or writer/director...work with me here...I want a pic of the cast or dvd cover etc...

1. Parker Lewis Can't Lose
2.Baby talk


ALF



an alien life form that had a craving for cats!

Perfect Strangers




Bulky and Cossin Larry......it really had a nice theme:

"sometimes the world look sperfect nothing to rearrange..but sometime u just get a feeling like you need some kind of change...no matter what the odds are this time..nothings gonna stand in my way...."


Monkees



heh heh we're the monkees...

they did the original "im a believer " song that was trashed in Shrek

Murphy Brown




This woman was tough as steel...poor Dan Quayle did not know who he was messing with.How many secretaries did she fire????
and did that painter elliot ever clear painting her house???

Married with children



nasty! nasty! nasty!


Herman's Head




the four personalities in his head...pure magic!


Blossom



it had some cheap jokes..some really great cheap jokes.

Family Ties



Michael J. Fox became a star from here so did Justine Bateman

Hi dear? Hehehe - kumbuka chatquiz on the Monkees and Parker Lewis? You still bowing down? Mrs Musso and sijui Kudrow. Parker was da bomb.

@Princess: Does Moonlighting qualify as a comedy?

mwasjd said...

He was all that and a bag of chips, kwanza his eyes! The guy was psycho, but I think I expected more terror from him, most of the movie save for the end makes him look like a nice misunderstood mzee

First, I want a post on how 'Tato came to be. Right from the very first thing that triggered in you a love for all things tatoholic to the present day.

Second, if you had unlimited resources, what movie would you make, and who would you cast in it. Describe the criteria used to choose that particular movie, as well as rationale used in selecting the actors/actresses for the various roles.
