I'm with Busey (2003)
This Is Classic Stuff
Thank God for shows like "I'm With Busey". For every bit of dreck like "Anna Nicole" and those Osbourne idiots, we need ten more shows like "I'm With Busey".
Hats off to the exec who green-lighted (green-lit?) this tremendous idea. Hats off to Comedy Central for recognizing the potential.
Busey is an ideal protagonist: unpredictable, reasonably intelligent, physically intimidating, disarmingly charming at times, I mean, I could go on, but I won't.
Watch this show and laugh your ass off!
Kolchak: The Night Stalker (1974)
Classic Memories
I know other readers have voiced the opinion already, but I had to chime in because it seems that this series has had a similar impact on so many people.
Great combo of horror and subtle comedy, great acting from McGavin, Oakland, et al, unique & original storylines; of course, it DOES look a bit dated when held up to today's standards (HDTV/DVD picture, etc.), but for me, the best part about viewing old Kolchak episodes are the memories it inspires, getting to stay up late with Dad and then having the sh$t scared out of me. Spanich Moss monster, Rakshasa, Doppleganger, I have very vivid memories of how these episodes scared me as a kid, and the nostalgic feelings the show engenders now are simply priceless.
Long live Darren McGavin!
