    Huh, yeah. The person I was thinking of specifically was   
   Scott Thompson, who used to even have his own little Scottland web   
   site, and then kind of got kidnapped by Romulans.   
      
    Norm MacDonald vanished too, but we all know he was put into   
   NBC Jail.

    The one I think people overlook -- easily, since it's kind of   
   an understated one around a lot of laugh lines -- comes as Arthur is   
   at the castle full of French people, the scene that would culminate in   
   the wooden bunny. The French people with the outrageous accents have   
   just unleashed a long, almost uninterrupted string of vicious and   
   savage taunting, and Galahad weakly asks, ``Is there someone else there   
   we can talk to?''   
      
    It's frightfully funny and perfectly delivered and is an utterly   
   logical thing to say nevertheless ... but it's placed in a spot where   
   it's easily and often overlooked.
