    Names misspelled in TV credits

    When this episode first aired on FOX it was part of special night of promotions. This 90210 episode had intentional "bloopers" viewers were supposed to try and spot throughout the show.

    Charlie's Angels Season 5

    I have been a fan of all of the Angels since they started in 1976, however the only way I would purchase season 5 (or the complete series box) is if the Season 5 Premiere episode was in its original 3 hour format. The original airing had the first story (Julie's intro) running about 2hours and...

    Did Columbia House have better quality control?

    All of Charlie's Angels 2 hour episodes are presented as 2 hours and are complete and uncut on Columbia House while the dvds are split into 2 parts and are syndicated prints.

    Netflix goes bat@#%@ insane, it's $16 a month now if you want to keep 1 DVD + streaming, $18 for 1 B

    I do enjoy the streaming for movies (I like the old stuff), but for TV no way as they stream edited episodes of tv shows that are available complete on dvd. Roseanne is an example. I know the season 1 dvd is edited, but all streaming episodes are edited.

    We may have to hang on to our BEAUTY AND THE BEAST DVD's...

    I am not entirely sure, but I think that the Work In Progress presented on the DVD is not only a different version than the one on the laserdisc, but is also framed incorrectly/differently. I have never seen the dvd version, but own the laserdisc.

    Need help to connect S-video Laserdisc player output to Optoma projector without S-video input

    I never knew that. I feel kind of silly knowing that now, because although I do not recall the moment, I am sure I "saw" an upgrade in video quality years ago when I switched from composite to s-video. lol.

    Need help to connect S-video Laserdisc player output to Optoma projector without S-video input

    Interesting information. I had no idea. I hooked it up last night and enjoyed my CAV disc of [as far as I know it is the closest to the theatrical version] Who Framed Roger Rabbit lol. Thanks for all the suggestions and info. Tony

    Need help to connect S-video Laserdisc player output to Optoma projector without S-video input

    My laserdisc player has s-video and composite outputs, however I now have an Optoma projector that does not have an S-video input. I would prefer not to have to use the composite input and was hoping for some suggestions in the best way to convert the laserdisc S-video to an input that is...

    This is starting to be no fun (projector & screen help needed)

    Sorry G. Alan Brown, President, but I find that Home Theater Forum has anything BUT "narrowly knowledgeable and/or insufficiently experienced novices" and is the perfect place to ask anything home theater related. It sounds like you are making a sales pitch.

    How do I receive my local HD channels with a projection tv?

    I just purchased the Optoma HD20 and currently use Dish Network, but will be ditching it asap. I would like to just receive my local HD channels via antenna, but I don't have any idea what equipment is needed. Is there a tv tuner type box I need to purchase? I did some poking around the...

    Kosher Coke, or Mexican Coke made with real suger cane

    I am a total Pepsi junkie. Pepsi does make a Kosher for Passover Pepsi with sugar. Last year the 2 liter bottles had a white cap. I buy as much as possible and even tell my friends to be on the lookout for it. I live in Brooklyn, NY near a large Jewish community, so I can find it with...

    Help with movie title

    Well I found it! It is "Fear of the dark". I remembered the title was something like "Don't be afraid of the dark" and then went on IMDB doing searches like "Scared of the dark" etc and found it. Now I hope that my friend likes it after driving myself crazy trying to think of it all day...

    Help with movie title

    Okay, let me state up front that it was not the best scary movie, but I think that a friend of mine who only enjoys their scary movies on the lite side would like this one. My guess is the movie came out in the past 5 years and was direct to video (or a tv movie). I saw it on a channel like HBO...

    Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition, etc. Exchange Number and info

    I called about 5 weeks ago just for the return envelope and still have not received it. I made a couple of followup calls and confirmed my address with them. They keep telling me they sent it but it hasn't arrived. I am so annoyed at this slow process. When I returned my Back to the Future and...

    Anyone ever attended a TV show taping (Studio Audience)? Share your experiences!

    Back in the 80's I saw a taping of The Facts of Life. It was during their last season and was the episode that Natalie lost her virginity! I remember that when they were ready to begin taping, an announcement was made to the effect "Due to the content of tonights episode, Lisa Welchel has...

    Calling all mechanics--Car Repair Cost Question

    Thanks Seth. I did do research after I got the car and saw the horror stories. Fortunately my sister gave it to me so I had no upfront costs. It was her husbands (he passed away) and she had several other cars and was getting rid of it, so I took it. Living in NYC I drive it very...

    Calling all mechanics--Car Repair Cost Question

    I have a 99 Dodge Intrepid that I got from my sister about 6 months ago, it has around 60,000 miles on it. The AC was not working so I took it in. I have been told that the ac unit is fine, it is the flaps that control the air flow into the car that are not working. I guess they move to let in...

    Hitachi--great customer service

    Well Duncan I can tell you that I have never purchased them for any item I have bought (many tv's stereo components, computers, etc) in the last 20 years and have never regretted it. But without knowing one's situation I would never recommend or not recommend the extended service plan. I...

    Hitachi--great customer service

    Since so many people in person and on the web are so quick to talk about horrible stories regarding customer service (myself included), I thought for a change I would share a good story. In Nov. 2004 I received as a gift the Hitachi 50v500 LCD RPTV. The picture (after adjustments) was...

    I once again return to pick the brain of the best on the internet! I saw this move last year and want to watch it again with a friend, but for the life of me I cannot remember the name. I tried searching IMDB but could not find it. Not really sure what genre it falls into. It is one of those...
