>>>was watching the 1945 film "Christmas in Connecticut" over the holidays which featured Dick Elliott (Mayor Pike) as a judge...but that's not the BIG news! In a crowded room seen, I believe I saw OUR OWN MR. SCHWAMP sitting in a chair smiling. I'm going to try to track down the movie to watch that part again! Can anybody confirm or deny?!

Keith, I'm going to deny. That is a common myth/ sighting, but I think our Thelma Lou--Janet already 10-4ed that one back in 2004. I watched it also and agree both; that it takes a second look, but its not him. Here is her 2004 post from my personal archives. "Yes, once when I was watching "Christmas in Connecticut," I too thought I spotted Mr. Schwamp at the dance. On closer inspection, though, I decided it wasn't him. For one thing, that movie was released in 1945, which was about twenty years before our beloved Schwamp appeared on TAGS, so he would have looked much younger in "Christmas," if that was him. If you want to indulge in wishful thinking, you could speculate that the extra in "Christmas" was Schwamp's daddy! Thelma Lou (Janet)" " The Untrained Voice Sgt at Arms.
