"Due to the film's explicit violence and uncomfortable detail of a homicidal sniper acting alone and without apparent motivation, NBC negotiated with Universal Studios to film additional scenes for its television premiere in 1978. The new scenes would detail an art theft, with the sniper serving as a decoy so robbers could escape without detection. The additional scenes, totaling 40 minutes in length, were added for the film's TV showing while 45 minutes of the original version were removed. Director Larry Peerce disowned the TV version, which credits the pseudonymous "Gene Palmer" as director and Francesca Turner (who also helped doctor David Lynch's Dune for TV) for the "teleplay". When shown on network television, this version of Two-Minute Warning is often shown rather than the original theatrical release The television version was not included when the film was released to video and DVD."
probably have only seen the tv version, want to see the theatrical now

x-post After I watched Cracker a few years ago I couldn't get Robert Carlyle's Liverpool FC chant out of my head for months.

Watched the first ep of Annika Bengzton on the rec of posters here-- I thought it was servicable and well shot though not especially gripping. I did like where she threatened to kill the bully kid.

"When shown on network television, this version of Two-Minute Warning is often shown rather than the original theatrical release." - curious when Two-Minute Warning was last shown on network television.

I remember watching it sometime in either the very late 80s or very early 90s on commercial television and thinking it was godawful, hardly worth convincing my parents to let me stay awake on a school night for.

got stoned and watched The Dove last night. Joseph Bottoms is soooooooooo gay in that movie. like gayer than gay. he's supposed to be in love with Deborah Raffin but i don't buy it. on the other hand, Deborah Raffin in this movie could turn a blind, gay statue straight. oof! the whole movie is pretty gay. i also kept thinking that Joseph Bottoms was Timothy Bottoms and wondering why he didn't look like Timothy Bottoms. even his name is pretty gay. worth watching for the feral cat scene and the one outfit he wears which is nothing but some sort of chain/strap harness instead of a shirt and short short jean shorts. so gay! if you want to know what the pre-irony world was like, you should watch it. 70's blissful ignorance/guilelessness at its most squishy.

oh hey, adventure time, childrens hospital, and carrie. also the venture brothers but prob only the first season from what i can tell

is it adventure time or regular show that ilx is in love with? theyre both up now
― My Chemical Romance did 9/11 (jjjusten), Monday, 1 April 2013 16:37 (eleven years ago) link
it is children's hospital, which is also up
― congratulations (n/a), Monday, 1 April 2013 16:41 (eleven years ago) link
Children's Hospital kind of fizzled out later on but I'll happily re-watch the early episodes! Thanks for the heads up.
― Evan, Monday, 1 April 2013 16:43 (eleven years ago) link
I've been hoping Carrie would show up sooner or later!
― how's life, Monday, 1 April 2013 16:45 (eleven years ago) link
Childrens Hospital still manages at least a handful of episodes each season that are funnier or more clever than any other comedy on TV.

I'm finding Cracker barely tolerable with the sexual harassment and "two inches of white, white thigh" tactics, and the main character's high-handedness. Altogether it's ooging me out. "Such a beautiful woman, so full of life" oh sit down.

i love love love regular show, couldn't get into adventure time but the opposite seems true for ILX

Tried to watch "Adventure Time" with the kids today, Found it so obnoxious I couldn't hang around, then five minutes later they asked me to put on "Phineas and Ferb" instead.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 1 April 2013 23:49 (eleven years ago) link
Phineas and Ferb definitely gets a lot more love at my house than Adventure Time

seems more kid-lovable than meta- and in-jokey

"P & F" is totally meta and in-jokey, but it's not nearly as obnoxious.

I should really make a Fringe episode guide, actually
that dove/boy who sailed poster and cover upthread are tripping me out. they just took the dude's body from the book cover and put the actor's head on there. I had no idea they did that sort of thing that early on!
