RIP to the one and only Jim Bowen.
I remember watching Bullseye with my nan and grandad as a kid. One of the better 80's game shows.

Agent_99

I'm so sorry, @BeatlesSansEarmuffs. She sounds like a lovely mum. (Mine also got me enjoying books from an early age, and it's one of the best gifts you can give.)

Sorry for your loss, @BeatlesSansEarmuffs. I lost my mom to cancer as well.

@BeatlesSansEarmuffs My condolences to you and your family.

I've found this video of the late Jim Bowen telling the story of two Bullseye inebriated contestants from Belfast hilarious and I'm sure you will too:



It's a great tribute to his comedic talents! :))

RIP Katie Boyle.

91 is not a bad age to go, I think.

BeatlesSansEarmuffs

Thanks @DrKaufmann & @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. Thanks, @Gerard -- and funny thing about Michael Fleisher: he seemed to have pretty much dropped off the edge of the world after losing his suit against The Comics Journal. I wonder...?

DarthDimi

I'm terribly sorry to read about your loss, @BeatlesSansEarmuffs. A mother is irreplaceable. May she live on forever in your dreams and memories.

BeatlesSansEarmuffs

Thanks @DarthDimi. She does, she will...

In France, all we got was the Hanna-Barbera cartoon. I don't know if Frank Avruch did the voice on these. Still, for the kid I was at the time, they were fun.

Hill Street Blues had my attention. The Columbo connection rings true. Steven Bochco did very good work.
