    ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
    Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
    TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
    AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
    lauracox Finally! I can't wait! I used to record parts of the show with my cassette recorder while my Mom made fun of me. It'll be great to see those episodes again. I remember Daryl fishing for a giant letter E, and I think a steam roller in "Lonely Nights." Toni's spaghetti strap sequenced gowns, and all the different colored captain's hats. I was too young to remember much more.I hope Neil Sedaka is on one of the episodes. That would be doubly delightful! With any luck, they'll have some behind the scenes extras and any music videos they made. I think there was one for "Do that to me one more time."
    Mark Ewing I was a big fan of Captain and Tennille back then, but I can't say the show was all that good. The skits were poorly written and not all that innovative, but who cared? I believe they had 2 Captain and Tennille singing segments that were great. They always had guest stars, I think they were always singers....like Leo Sayer, whoever was popular at the time. I still cringe at some of the jokes and skits...but Tennille had such a good voice, it was worth it to watch her sing the songs...remember there was no MTV back then. I remember they did "Gangster, you're no good", to the tune of "You're No Good"-by Linda Rondstadt. It was a tribute to "The Godfather" movies. I was mad when they cancelled it. I had no way to way to see Captain and Tennille. It was replaced by "Eight is Enough" on ABC. I boycotted the show.
    numberone_1 I too would like to know if these episodes are floating around! This show - along with Sonny & Cher and Carol Burnett - made being a kid growing up in the 70s very, very fun.I do not remember much of this show other than I really liked it, never missed it, and was mad when it was canceled. Oh yes, I also remember the "Bionic Watermelon." Makes me laugh just thinking about it now....
    jerrymarcelina The Captain and Tennille series erupted on the scene in 1976 and 1977 and it aired every monday night at 8pm on ABC. I think this was the finest form of muscial entertainment an hour could be spent with, no offense to the Sonny and Cher show but they simply could not hold water to the talent, versatility and fine theme The Captain and Tennille had on their series. Although Cher has done well for herself, I must tell you Toni Tennille did as well. She now exercises her stage talent along with the lush sounds of the combined muscial keyboarding of her husband the Captain (Daryl Dragon). I would love to be able to view the re-runs from the original series, they were such good entertainment and their music was always appreciated, with their new CD "Twenty years of Romance" , their music will remain timeless and in closing, once again, there just is no topping their series.....
