Praise for the MFU packaging!!!

I believe I've mentioned not above a hundred times or so that I've been rewatching the Man from U.N.C.L.E. from the DVD set that I got as a present a few years ago. We just started watching the 4th season, and I have to give kudos to the people who designed the attache case it came in ( Read more... )

spyfi, man from u.n.c.l.e.

I credit you and Cynthia with getting me starting to watch NCIS to see my old love, David McCallum. I am concerned about him now. If anyone finds that painting of him aging that he has hidden in his attic things could go very wrong.

He's so PRETTY in MFU. And so is Napoleon, honestly. *happy sigh*

It took me a while to get used to Robert Vaughn. He was too smooth for me. Even at a young age I loved the more unusual men or the men who had rough edges.

And some of your friends, including me, are in that bonus dvd.

So that's where you are! I knew you were in the box somewhere. :-) We watched all the bonus discs for Season 1, but we've been saving the others.

I haven't been able to watch any reruns of MFU. *stifled sob* B and I had cable once, and B's memory of why we dropped it was that I wasn't watching it. I remember watching MTV then. This was back in the days of their showing music videos exclusively, and I remember seeing Dr. Dre's video of "Let Me Ride" several times. It was on heavy rotation. Dre borrowed the conceit of "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" for "Let Me Ride" which I liked, and the music has a melancholy edge that I'm fond of. (Later, I bought the cassette of The Chronic, which "Let Me Ride" is a part of. It's difficult for me to listen too. Dre's favorite expressions are f-bombs, and the feminists are right to revile "Bitches Ain't Shit," the last track. I used to play it very occasionally, when I was feeling very angry, but now I can't listen to it at all. Except for "Let Me Ride ( ... )
