   	Oh!  I heard that completely wrong and that got me most   
   embarrassingly screwed up, given the second writer of the incomparable   
   afcob FAQ.  But now it all fits into place, as Vic Damone played the   
   singer Rick Vallone -- which was surely what Conan was saying -- in   
   the epsiode 'Like A Sister', in which, in a daring stretch for the   
   show, Sally Rogers falls in love yet can't turn this into a workable   
   relationship.   
      
   	There does need to be some less-bad way to search episode   
   guides online.  Happily, Wikipedia seems to be filling out in one   
   of its dimensions as a fanboy guide to everything.  Science fiction   
   shows are pretty well represented; comedy has to follow.
