A time traveler from an undisclosed time in the 20th Century travelled back to 1881. After failing to save the people of Hiroshima, failing to assassinate Adolf Hitler, or prevent the sinking of the Lousitania, he had sworn off trying to change history. In 1881 he was enjoying the simple life and even fell in love until he realized the school was in danger of burning down putting students in danger. He tried to prevent the accident from happening but ended up being the cause of it. ("No Time Like the Past", The Twilight Zone, TV)

After Catherine died, Gloucester summoned Tudor before the council under a safe conduct; he sought sanctuary at Westminster. He maintained his innocence of any charge and was released, but on his way to Wales was arrested. His goods, worth £137 10s. 4d., were seized and he was consigned to Newgate prison, whence he escaped in January or early February 1438. After his recapture by John, Lord Beaumont (d. 1460), he returned to Newgate, and was then transferred to Windsor Castle (14 July) in the charge, soon afterwards, of Edmund Beaufort. Released in July 1439 on a £2000 recognizance, he was pardoned all offences on 12 November. Thereafter he was a member of the king's household; his two sons were in the care (1437–42) of the earl of Suffolk's sister, Katherine de la Pole, abbess of Barking, at the king's expense.

Revisiting this, I find that I do not have this sort of opinion on other Great Detectives. Every version of Miss Marple is equally a manifestation of the frighteningly smart, eminently sensible elderly spinster that susses out the lies with nosy curiosity, be it Margaret Rutherford, Angela Lansbury, Julia McKenzie, or Joan Hickson. All of them conjure up Jane Marple equally well. Both William Conrad and Maury Chaykin brought the pre-eminent American Great Detective, Nero Wolfe, to life in all his grumpy, opinionated, and sedentary manner. Both Humphrey Bogart and Clive Owen embody the cynicism, anger, and resolution of Sam Spade. Robert Mitchum and Liam Neeson both manifest Phillip Marlowe in all his hard-boiled magnificence. It is only Holmes and Poirot where I have the dissatisfaction.

Maybe it is the popularity of these two, over the others, or maybe there is more to reinterpret in the First Consulting Detective and the Fussy Little Belgian. Miss Marple is so inherently an icon of the British rural imagery, and Spade and Marlowe are iconic as the origins of the American movie detective. And if you changed anything about Nero Wolfe, he would cease to be Nero Wolfe. Perhaps there is less that authors feel needs to be changed. Or perhaps they are just not as well known.

I sometimes feel that Jeremy Brett and David Suchet have cursed me to never enjoy other actors' portrayals of their respective Great Detectives. I love Robert Downey, Jr., but he is not Holmes; he is a pulp action hero version of Holmes, whirling through melees and explosions that Holmes would have predicted and let Lestrade resolve with the combined might of Scotland Yard. Branagh and Ustinov are geniuses, but they are too comfortable in the world to be the fussy little Belgian. They lack the discomfort with the messiness of the day-to-day that Suchet imparts in every gesture. (Poirot does not _chase_ the fleeing villain on foot, Msr. Branagh; that is what Japp and Hastings are for.)

Despite this, though, I enjoy the other visions of Holmes and Poirot. They show that even such iconic, important archetypal characters can be re-interpreted and show some new and fun.

David Soul (born David Richard Solberg; August 28, 1943 – January 4, 2024) Actor and singer known for his role as Detective Kenneth "Hutch" Hutchinson in the television series Starsky & Hutch from 1975 to 1979; Joshua Bolt on Here Come the Brides from 1968 to 1970. As a singer, he scored one US hit and five UK hits with songs such as "Don't Give Up on Us" (No. 1 in US, Canada, and UK) in 1976 and "Silver Lady" (No. 1 in UK) in 1977. He also starred in the 1979 hit TV movie adaptation Salem's Lot by Stephen King.

Soul first gained national attention as the "Covered Man" appearing on The Merv Griffin Show in 1966 and 1967, on which he sang while wearing a mask. He explained: "My name is David Soul, and I want to be known for my music." The same year, he made his television debut in Flipper.

In 1967, he signed a contract with Columbia Pictures and following a number of guest appearances, including the episode "The Apple" from the second season of Star Trek, he landed the role of Joshua Bolt on the television program Here Come the Brides with co-stars Robert Brown, Bobby Sherman and Bridget Hanley. The series was telecast on the ABC network from September 25, 1968, to September 18, 1970. In 1972, he co-starred as Arthur Hill's law partner on Owen Marshall: Counselor at Law. Following numerous guest-starring roles on TV, including The Streets of San Francisco.

His breakthrough came when he portrayed Detective Ken "Hutch" Hutchinson on Starsky & Hutch, a role he played from 1975 until 1979. During his career he made guest appearances on Star Trek, I Dream of Jeannie, McMillan & Wife, Cannon, Gunsmoke, All in the Family, and numerous TV movies and mini-series, including Homeward Bound (1980), World War III, and Rage (1980), a TV movie commended on the floor of the U.S. Senate and for which he received an Emmy Award nomination. Soul also starred with James Mason in the 1979 TV miniseries adaptation of Stephen King's Salem's Lot, which was edited and released as a theatrical feature film in some countries.

He continued to make guest appearances in various television series. He starred in the miniseries The Manions of America as Caleb Staunton in 1981. He starred in the short-lived 1983 NBC series Casablanca, playing nightclub owner Rick Blaine (the role that was made famous by Humphrey Bogart in the 1942 film Casablanca), and co-starred in the NBC series The Yellow Rose during the 1983–1984 season. He also starred in the television adaptation of Ken Follett's wartime drama The Key to Rebecca (1985) directed by David Hemmings. He later starred as the infamous Florida robber Michael Platt in the TV movie In the Line of Duty: The F.B.I. Murders (1988), which depicted the 1986 FBI Miami shootout, subsequently used as an FBI training film. Soul also directed the episode "No Exit" of the 1980s TV series Miami Vice. (Wikipedia)

Siblings Mimi and Luke unwittingly resurrect an ancient alien overlord who was entombed on Earth millions of years ago after a failed attempt to destroy the universe. They nickname the evil creature Psycho Goreman (or PG for short) and use the magical amulet they discovered to force him to obey their childish whims. It isn’t long before PG’s reappearance draws the attention of intergalactic friends and foes from across the cosmos and a rogues’ gallery of alien combatants converges in small-town suburbia to battle for the fate of the galaxy.
