Scandal, while not high art, was quite good this season. I watched it on Netflix because I fell behind on it this season. I'm watching The Rockford Files now on Netflix. I just watched one or two episodes of this show in reruns when I was young. So different watching a show from that time period

I don't know Kiefer Sutherland, but one incident makes me sympathetic to him. A then unknown Andy Samberg was shooting a comedy video in Los Angeles, very low budget. I think it was just a guy with a handheld consumer video camera. The scene involved someone beating up a woman. They were shooting

Unless IMDB (the end-all and be-all of all things minutia) is incorrect, Sutherland is 5'9, which seems much more believable than 5'4, considering the photos I've seen over the years. Doug Fields Tampa, FL Original Message Subject: [TV orNotTV] Kiefer-Freddie Cat Fight From:
