   From: weberm@polaris.net   
      
   On the day of the Superb Owl, I watched:   
      
   WE ARE THE 80'S   
      
   WE ARE THE 80'S   
      
   WE ARE THE 80'S   
      
   HERE'S LUCY:   
   "Lucy Loses Her Cool". Lucy is chosen on an audience participation game   
   show. The host, Art Linkletter, offers her $500 if she won't lose her   
   temper for 24 hours. When she's escorted off the stage, the host then   
   brings out Harry, Mary Jane, & the kids, offering them $250 each if   
   they can make Lucy lose her temper! They do everything possible to make   
   Lucy lose it, but she overcomes temptation. Lucy manages to demolish a   
   grocery store!   
      
   HERE'S LUCY:   
   "Lucy, the Part-Time Wife". Harry bribes Lucy into posing as his   
   pregnant wife to keep away an old flame with romantic desires for   
   Harry. A funny physical show in which Lucy gets ready to deliver a baby   
   largely made of feathers.   
      
   CHARLIE'S ANGELS:   
   "Angel in Love". A DB Cooper type plot (though they used the name BJ   
   Smith to avoid lawsuits). A guy stole two million dollars and then   
   vanished. It turns out the money is hidden in the walls of a cabin at   
   Utopia West (a "growth center") where several murders have taken place.   
   Sabrina poses as a freelance magazine writer. Kelly is a bus driver.   
   Kris is a phys ed instructor and happens to be an expert in karate and   
   yoga. Bosley is a paying guest at the center, and goes on an herb diet   
   (against his will).   
      
   The groundskeeper(?) is searching the cabins for the money when Kris   
   and Kelly walk in. He hides in the closet and watches them start to   
   undress before making a break for it.   
      
   HART TO HART:   
   "Hart-Shaped Murder". The Harts want to give their charity committee   
   gourmet chocolate hearts as a thank-you, but when one turns out to have   
   been part of a smuggling operation, can Jonathan and Jennifer figure   
   out what is going on before someone tries the "special" chocolates from   
   an unknown admirer?   
      
   FANTASY ISLAND:   
   • "I Want to Get Married". Pennsylvania librarian Cindy Barker is set   
   to have her wedding on Fantasy Island - all she needs is the groom.   
      
   • "The Jewel Thief". Manufacturer Jordan Montgomery hopes to pull off   
   one major heist as a cat burglar. Tattoo runs a greeting card business.   
      
   THE SUPERB OWL   
   I only had it on so I could chnage the channel for the alternative   
   halftimje show.   
      
   What did you watch?   
      
   --   
   Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they   
   love this country.
