25 Nov 00 - 04:11 PM (#346684) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: kendall My favorite is Fish. second, Dietrich |

25 Nov 00 - 05:55 PM (#346722) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Banjer I liked all the characters, but if I had a favorite it would have to be Nick. Like Matt I loved his deadpan, almost Jack Benny quality. I think my favorite line of his is the time he was doing an investigation and there was a Chinese wok involved. He needed to take it to a local store for someone to ID it and he tolk Fish that was going to 'Take a wok (walk) down to the corner' |

25 Nov 00 - 09:16 PM (#346813) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: catspaw49 I loved 'em all, but Jack Soo was really priceless in that show. The infamous "mooshie,mooshie" brownies........and the one where he was making soup and someone said it smelled like garbage. He proceeds to rattle off the ingredients and stops after he say "fisheads" and gets this great "enlightened" look on his face and says, "Hey....this IS garbage." Too many great episodes........Dietrich telling the lie detector he's from another galaxy "far, far away" and the machine believes him. Fish looking longingly at the bathroom which has just been blown up. He stares at the shattered door, shrugs his shoulders and goes on in. Great show....Glad its back on a syndicated cable basis.

25 Nov 00 - 09:21 PM (#346814) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Matt_R Who was Deitrich? I'm not sure I remember him. Was he the guy who liked Fish's daughter, and did a great Gregory Peck impression? |

26 Nov 00 - 09:40 AM (#346878) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: kendall Thats him Matt. The brains of the outfit. He appeared for the first time as a bogus Bible salesman. Also, the police artist in one show was the guy who played the farmer in the movie Babe. I get a big kick out of Inspector Luger...he reminds me of my old supervisor. I'm really enjoying this marathon. |

26 Nov 00 - 10:16 AM (#346880) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Matt_R Kendall, you mean James Cromwell? He was awesome as Zefram Cochrane in Star Trek:First Contact. Was Inspector Luger the guy with the fedora with the little feather in it? |

26 Nov 00 - 02:20 PM (#346921) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: kendall yes, the bachelor with the deep voice. Another guy showed up as Scanlon from Internal Affairs. He was an Army Sargent in a previous episode. |

27 Nov 00 - 03:24 PM (#347200) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: radriano Barney Miller was one of the best sitcoms ever made. Intelligent, subtle, and very funny. Makes you wonder why sitcoms made today seem to rely almost entirely on sex for content. |

27 Nov 00 - 04:12 PM (#347219) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Peg I met Steve Landesberg (aka Dietrich) and what's more, I KISSED him! On the lips! On my birthday...a number of years ago. (it was a fluttery fan's request and what could he do, say no?) He was always my favorite, too, even before that. Oh, and, in person? His voice is really that deep... Great show and one of the best sitcoms ever! peg |

28 Nov 00 - 01:44 PM (#347607) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Mrrzy I LOVE THIS SHOW! LOGVE LOVE LOVE! Boy that Barney Miller is HOT, sorry, I don't know why, I just want to jump his bones. But nobody can beat Jack Soo for the comedy. And Inspector Luger was on Star Trek... |

28 Nov 00 - 02:22 PM (#347648) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Peg Wojo was kinda sexy in his way...at any rate he seemed to be the one who was always gettin' some (or talking about it)... for sheer animal magnetism, I liked the foxy (if fastidious) Harris... my favorite lines from some of these guys: on being asked by Barney during a heat wave, "Don't you sweat?" Harris replies, "It's a question of values. This is a fifty-dollar shirt."
after a gorgeous, intelligent woman walks through the squad room, Harris says: to which Dietrich replies: "There is nothing like a dame... (pause) Oscar Hammerstein." star |

28 Nov 00 - 06:16 PM (#347860) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: kendall One of my favorite lines was when the hooker asked Fish how long he had been a cop, and he said "I was the first" |

29 Nov 00 - 11:53 AM (#348316) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Irish sergeant Truly a great show! My wife, Peggy and I vegged in front of the TV Saturday and Sunday and watched it.I always liked Fish, Deitrich and Harris the most because they seemed to get the best lines. It is most unfortunate that there are no truly well crafted comedies like that on the lobotomy box anymore. I believe TVLand is carrying Barnie Miller Monday nights at 8:00pm (Bugger all, that's when I work, damn it!) Kindest reguards, Neil |

29 Nov 00 - 12:26 PM (#348339) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Mrrzy Although it is Barney I swoon over, Wojo was my favorite member of the show. Still is. Remember, he didn't even notice anything with the brownies? But Fish had the best line there - "First time in years I feel really good, and it has to be illegal!" Or something. I'm going on memory there... I haven't seen that episode replayed yet. I can tell I'm gonna start taping it to watch during a better time of day... |

29 Nov 00 - 12:40 PM (#348350) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: GUEST,Mickey191 Catspaw49, Your exact quote of Yamana describing his soup was imbedded in my brain all these years. Jack was my favorite also, but I did get a hell of a kick out of Insp. Luger played by James Gregory. I wish I could get the reruns. Barney is right up there with Mary Tyler Moore & the first Newhart show. Slainte, Mickey |

29 Nov 00 - 12:44 PM (#348353) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Wesley S I loved it too - Now let them bring back "Soap" for a marathon. We need "Invisible Burt" |

29 Nov 00 - 02:48 PM (#348417) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: kendall I'm curious to know what certain women saw in Wojo. He was not very bright, quite macho and he "slept around" |
|
30 Nov 00 - 01:46 PM (#349053) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Mrrzy What I saw in him, kendall, was sheer animal magnetism. Nothing that would attract me to a human being in real life, I hope! Now Barney, on the other hand, has all the triggers for me - intelligence, kindness, and oh yes, good looks too. Swoon, swoon. I used to have dreams about him... |

30 Nov 00 - 03:18 PM (#349112) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Pseudolus It is amazing that there are that many Barney Miller fans out there. I LOVED the show but until now I thought it was only me. The really cool thing is that after all these years, it's still funny!!!! The one character not mentioned yet was Levitt. He wasn't my favorite (I liked 'em all) but he certainly deserves mentioning. What a show!! Frank |

30 Nov 00 - 03:31 PM (#349122) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: Kim C Sins, Wojo was probably my favorite too, although I was only like 8 or 9 years old when this was on TV! But it was a show your kids actually could watch in those days, even if they didn't understand it all. I don't have cable and haven't seen Barney in years... One episode I really remember was the vagrant who claimed he was Jesus... and they could find no missing persons reports matching his description. And yes, Hal Linden was a fine looking specimen of a man. Seems like awhile back Max Gail appeared on one of the nighttime drama shows as a bad guy. I was so disappointed. But that's WOJO, I moaned... he can't be a bad guy... waaaaahhhh..... My very favorite old show, though, is Bonanza. I wanted to marry Adam Cartwright. :) ------------KFC |

30 Nov 00 - 06:12 PM (#349227) Subject: RE: BS: Barney Miller From: BeauDangles Yeah, I loved that show too. The final episode was one of the saddest moments in TV history. I also seem to remember one of the scariest moments in TV history when they had a guy in the holding cell who claimed to be the Devil, or was possessed or someting like that. That show kept me awake for a couple of nights! BeauD |
