Today, remember those lost and loved, ‘just because’ you can. Another Sunday Family Brunch—missing my beloved Robert Altman so, so much. His spirit, humor, and character is so alive in me, at times I can’t breathe. Honey, thank you for loving me.

TNG was teed up by Star Trek IV being an enormous hit in the fall of 1986.

I can offer you salvation …

Happy “parents of high school and college age kids look at old photos of their children in their cute lil’ costumes and wonder how they grew up so fast” day to all who observe.

Here’s a story for you. We started filming without owning the title and had to do alternates. Taft Broadcasting owned the title Ghostbusters as part of their half-hour sitcom starring Larry Storch and Forrest Tucker (F-Troop) and a gorilla chasing ghosts. I had never heard of it. They didn’t have proton packs or Bill Murray. Columbia paid $500,000 to buy the name, but they really should have paid Dean Martin, from whom I first heard the term. In the film Scared Stiff (1953), he and Jerry Lewis (check out his acrobatic stair descent) are in an old haunted castle, and Lizabeth Scott asks Dean: “Who are you guys?” And Dean answers: “You’ve heard of Trustbusters and Gangbusters, we’re Ghostbusters!” For my research writing the first movie, I watched every single ‘ghost’ comedy ever made. Bowery Boys, Hope and Crosby, Abbot and Costello, Martin and Lewis all did such films. Happy Halloween 2026.
