    Anyone else think they should just re-boot Mork & Mindy instead?

    Nanu Nanu indeed

    Trivia time -Can you name the landlord of the music store where Mindy worked?

    As for Robin Williams, the less he's on TV the better, irritating git.

    During Robin Williams' career he went from being mad funny to being just mad, with a bit of creepiness thrown in for good measure.

    Will this be a comedy or drama or dramedy?

    early days yet, its from the same guy that made Boston Legal and Ally McBeal, so a dramedy would probably be the most likely,

    All I remember is that he was a baldy fella with a narrow head. What about the ould fella Mr Bicley?

    No, the baldy guy was called Fred, Mindy's boss iirc. The landlord was more exotically monickered. :D
    Season 1 - Ep8: When Mork tricks Mindy into believing that he can predict the weather, Mindy tells him that he should never lie ("splinking"). The music store's despicable landlord Arnold Wanker dies while trying to evict Fred from the music store. Mork, hearing the family try to comfort his widow, assumes that Wanker is their friend, and brings him back from the dead.
