So I finally watched the tv special on youtube to see what everyone's been talking about. I remember I had started watching a clip once but got bored pretty quick as it was starring a man I had never seen before. But if you continue watching... Ta daaa! Murdock!
I should have persevered!
Anyhow, I have a few questions about the show.
Did the guys not really know he was coming or was that set up?
Dwight and Dirk were obviously pretending that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, right?
Why didn't they try to talk with Amy?
Why did they focus so much on Fullbright and so little on Decker?
Marla was gorgeous, by the way. And it was cool that Peppard's son was there. I never knew George was supposed to be on Dynasty but was fired. That's hilarious.

I doubt that it could have been a total surprise. Seems like maybe it was a set-up, although I have not watched it for a long time. Yes, Marla Heasley did look great, if I recall. I think they spent a lot of time on Fulbright probably because they didn't get Lance LeGault to be on the show. Too bad. I love that guy.

He walked down a hallway with his arm around Decker. Was Decker not on it? Was that a clip from another show or someting? I watched it in pieces on youtube, so maybe I watched something different.

I don't even remember Decker on it! Maybe he was, and I forgot or maybe I somehow didn't see that part!

But my mom does have Decker playing the tambourine with Elvis on a video.

Maybe we can find that clip on youtube... What would we look under... Elvis and Lance?

It looks like there may be clips of the special on youtube...it was Elvis' '68 Comeback Special. Also, it looks like Lance LeGault was in some Captain America movie from 1979!

I have a Lance LeGault record. I was not a big fan of the special. I liked the idea, but I don't think he did it very well. I think doing it more as a fan and not so much tongue-in-cheek would have been better.

He seemed pretty excited to me. At times he stumbled over his words and I remember thinking, 'Wow, he's genuinely excited to talk with Dwight."

He might have been excited, but I still think it could have been done better.

Well, having more team and less him would have been the route I'd take.

I would like for them to just have a reunion show with the remaining cast, maybe some people who were really good guest stars (like Daniel Running Bear!), and people who worked on the show. I still really, really, really, really would love to see an interview with the stuntmen! Or at least with Craig Baxley.

I'm still hung up on the idea of an interview with Babs now!
