Everyone remembers this commercial for “Folks, These Robots are Hot.”
But my favourite thing about it is how desperately football star Alex Karras grips that G1 Perceptor.

Blazing Saddles (1974) - David Huddleston as Olson Johnson
What a hunk of a man David was. Those lips, hips and face. Body all over the place. I can work with John Hillerman too.
And by "work with", I mean I'd fuck him.
Alex Karras here is about 8 to 10 years from being hot to me. That being said, he could still get it.

Faerie Tale Theatre: The Ultimate Episode Ranking
So, we’ve come to the end of this years-long Faerie Tale Theatre retrospective, my friends. It’s been quite a ride. Unlike most big Hollywood collaborations, Faerie Tale Theatre wasn’t a vanity project or a corporate mandate driven by synergistic greed, but a labor of love from start to finish. There’s been highs and lows, but I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t any passion put into every minute…

Top 10 Sitcom Daddies
#10. Bill Cosby as Cliff Huxtable on The Cosby Show
I remember having a huge boner for Cosby, but lost it way before the rape allegations came out. That being said, I still had to put Cliff Huxtable on the list.
#9. John Mahoney as Martin Crane on Frasier
I had fantasies helping Martin out with his 'therapy'. And it only got better when found out Mahoney was gay in real life.
#8. Kurtwood Smith as Red Forman on That 70s Show
I had fantasies of Red angry fucking me in the basement. And when I'm not him, I'm hitting Donna's dad too. Plus Kitty would have gotten a taste too. What? Still bi.
#7. Ed O'Neill as Jay Pritchett on Modern Family
I know everybody loves Eric Stonestreet, but Ed O'Neill as Jay Pritchett could get me anytime he wanted. And when he's done, I'd slid over and hit Sofía Vergara. Again, still bi.
#6. John Goodman as Dan Conner on Roseanne
Let me clearify, John Goodman as Dan Conner on Roseanne. Not John Goodman as Dan Conner on The Connors. What? More pushing for the cushion.
#5. Alex Karras as George Papadapolis on Webster
I remember loving this show as a kid. And Karras would have me loving for whole different reason.
#4. Mark Addy as Bill Miller on Still Standing
This show helped my developing lust for Mark.
#3. Ed O'Neill as Al Bundy on Married with Children
Why do I have Ed twice on this list. As much as I like Ed as Jay Pritchett, it's Al Bundy who I'd be imagining dicking me down. Plus, I'm doing Peg too.
#2. Carroll O’Connor as Archie Bunker on All in the Family
Looking at Carroll sitting in that chair with his legs crossed was hot. Thick thighs does that to me.
#1. Tom Bosley as Howard Cunningham (Mr C) on Happy Days
There something about Tom walking around in those suits and him always being frisky.

so i can find this again. finally bit the bullet and changed my kjs city names to differentiate them from my ocs so:
party — ash london coleman (ooo lady fagita)
kobra — james “jamie” eric coleman
jet — danielle “dani” camila reyes-yoon
ghoul — edward “eddie” maxwell mochizuki ii
#pi's personal#danger days#hcs#<- so i can find it#erica i literally don’t want to hear anything about it okay.#getting shot and killed for kinnie crimes#damien as a name was derived from father karras from the exorcist so why not give him a different gayboy horror movie name#my backup name for the siblings was blackwell but i prefer being a kinnie thank you#for party it was close between max and ash#max is cuter imo but that would make their deadname MAXINE. sorry to any maxines out there but we#do NOT like it.#thanks#i judged it in part based on what gender neutral names i would change mine to if i didn’t like the associations with my birthname#and i like max better but ALAS#unrelated but my parents already have trouble with my pronouns i feel like their brains would explode if i changed my name also#and yes ghoul is named after his dad. his family buys big into bli’s way of life with conformity and gender roles as a part of it#these names might actually be better than the old ones. with the exception of alex party will always kind of be alex to me#but these have more thought behind them. yippee#party’s struggles with not feeling feminine or pretty enough as a girl thus traumatizing them and feeding into their eating disorder etc etc#and their mother named them ASHLEY LONDON. YIKES GIRL#party seeing who’s first in their class and ooh it’s ‘edward maxwell mochizuki#the SECOND’. oh lah di dah. that might make them hate him even more tbqh. rich boy ass name#jamie is still jamie just a nickname for james instead of jamison#also i think party’s name changes from ashley -> asher when they transition in the city but they go by ash because. gender#if erie finds this post and hunts me down for sport it was nice knowing all of you

Do you ever think about your OC's accents? I know folks often do voice claims for their characters, but if your stuff was being adapted into a format with audio, how would they all sound in relation to each other and in your native language? Would everybody just have the "normal" regional accent for your area (whether that be locally or country-wide), would certain characters be exceptions? How deep down the rabbit hole do you go, and is this a dark, dangerous door for me to have opened? :P
#xellafail#I've been thinking about it a lot for some reason#and while I can't say I have any specific accents chosen for any of my characters#I do know Karra and Sevvie and James would all sound different than the rest of the cast#because they're not from the area it takes place in#(or in James' case the time period it takes place in lol)#Xella-or-whatever-Xella's-replacement-ends-up-being would probably have a 'fake' accent that blends in and a 'real' accent that doesn't#I'm tempted to say that Alex would be given whatever accent seems to be the most 'swoon-worthy' in the states at any given time#so like australian or soft texan or something like that#(what are people swooning over these days idrk)#Sevvie's the only one that has a sort of 'grounded' accent#but even that's kind of up in the air#because I vacillate daily between her being some flavour of British#(because when R made the character she was leaning heavily on BTVS' Spike for it)#and californian#(because her language patterns are heavily californian and also that's where we were at the time)#which is a weird ping ponging in my head but there you go lol#almost all the Hellfyres would have the local accent#Kanos might be SLIGHTLY different due to James' influence but not significantly so#don't even talk to me about my D&D characters tho bc I have absolutely no idea lmao#I think I've been thinking about it because of the new-ish Castlevania series#where everyone's british except for the aztec vampire#even the french folks#also I guess the russian lady#and possibly more characters I haven't run into bc I'm having a real hard time getting through it#but like everyone's from the same place even though they're not!#and it's driving me crazy for some reason#(I think I listened to the og castlevania series in french maybe that'd help here)

Crazy thing is I remember him more as a TV actor...of course what sticks in mind most is his turn as a dad in "Webster".
A TITAN has passed away. I was an avid football fan a long time ago. I was a fan of my home town team, The Miami Dolphins. Dick Butkus was a well known player in those good old days & he was a great linebacker. MAY HE REST IN PEACE.

Dennis Burkley in the 1970s (Part 2)
In 1977: Dennis Burkley was a regular on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman for 85 episodes. It is difficult to find any photos.
He appeared on another episode of The Rockford Files as a Nazi.
He was in Eight is Enough as a guy who got sucker-punched at a dance.
Dennis Burkley was in a TV Movie about a wrestler called Mad Bull, starring Alex Karras, who looks kind of puny next to his co-stars. Richard Karron is the big, hairy guy.
In 1977 Burkley also appeared in TV Movie Delta County, U.S.A., Quincy, M.E., The Oregon Trail and the Henry Winkler and Sally Field movie Heroes. (no photos)
After Mary Hartman ended and the title character left the series, Dennis Burkley continued as Mac under the new title Forever Fernwood for 135 shows into 1978.
In 1978 he plays a Deputy in the sci-fi, alien invasion movie Laserblast.
He appeared on an episode of Baretta and on failed TV show Another Day.
He also appeared on Maude again as Congressional aid Sam Dickey. This was the last season of Maude as Bea Arthur quit the series. Norman Lear had planned to continue the Maude series as her being a Congresswoman and Dennis’ character Sam Dickey would be a regular. Instead, he developed a show starring John Amos as a black Congressman called Onward and Upward. John Amos had problems with the script and quit.
Lear reworked the show with Cleavon Little as the lead retitled Mr. Dugan. They were set to air in 1979, but a screening for actual black Congressmen was too insulting for them and the show was scrapped again.
The show was retooled again, now starring Bill Macy as a former pro football player becoming a congressman. Bill Macy, really? Why not make Dennis the former Pro-football player? The show was now entitled Hanging In. Dennis Burkley played his character, but the show lasted only 4 episodes.
Also in 1979, he appeared in his 3rd episode of The Rockford Files as a biker.
Other appearances in 1979 were in 2 episodes of BJ and the Bear and TV movies Charleston, Amateur Night at the Dixie Bar and Grill and Mrs. R’s Daughter (photo above)
