I don't think you need a B plot in a tornado episode. Just the A plot of how it's affecting everyone. Where are we, a fictional season 10? Barbara and Max worry about some customers scheduled to return that day. Max trying to keep things calm and normal for Annie. Barbara and Mark working to protect the house. Grandma recalling tornadoes and disasters of the past.

I think that stuff would kill a half an hour. Even a two-parter (If it's a 2 parter then it's a mostly normal day till the first commercial break)

By the way, Hot In Cleveland did a tornado episode

How about Julie calling out of the blue worrying about them because of the tornado ? Max has moved on and has a new love interest / girlfriend but Julie stirs up emotions in him ? Not sure if it is indeed Julie or combined with the tension of the tornado?

And Max's new girlfriend is from the east or the west coast and has never been through a tornado before to add to the drama of Julie calling !

I think it would give good closure for Julie as not being such a bad person, genuinely concerned for her family in a natural disaster. Of course Mac wouldn't be in the ep., just supposed to be Julie on the phone call!

And Antenna is on lovely season 6 now, I had the privilege of watching Ann meets Nick parts 1 and 2 today ! At least there was a good looking Latino guy at the unemployment office in part 1 who knew Ann. He was cute and had a couple funny lines . A shame he couldn't have joined the cast!,

Did we lose opus? Hopefully he enjoyed the long holiday weekend.

I moved some posts to a new thread. Feel free to edit the title if you want to change it up a little. Something without Dick Creamer would be preferred.

Thank you TJ ! I guess " Cuddling and Muddling with Dick Creamer" wouldn't really be too appropriate !

Hope Opus shows up today. He usually doesn't post much on the weekends . Watching sports. And it's been the US Open tennis going on.

That's the problem for me. The Disney/Spectrum fight took away my ESPN and ABC, so right now I have a free trial week of Fubu to watch all of it. But that will expire soon, and I can't afford to pay to get what I'm already supposedly paying for. Up next would be a free trial of YouTube TV. But that could only last so long too. Disney and Charter, two billion dollar companies, better adult up. It's not fair they get to punish the consumer over their petty bickering. It's also quite mean to yank away the US Open and the start of football season.

I was thinking the cuddle and muddle thing was becoming played out, but I'll see what Bonnie says.

Can't believe you prefer your Richards without cream.

YouTube TV is a pretty decent alternative. You don't get the regional sports networks, MLB Network or NHL Network. It's not quite as good of a deal as it used to be at $72.99 a month. It costs $64.99 for the first 3 months for new subscribers.

Please consider using my referral link if you sign up for it. I can get $45 off my next bill. If you become a Base Plan member, you'll get a $15 discount.

I still have cable of course and all the sports channels except for the blacked out ones in the fight (I wonder how prevalent the Yankee network, YES, is out there. Although that won't be needed for a while in a few weeks. And I need to start watching MSG soon for the Islanders. I don't use that one over the summer). And I can grab ABC from an antenna, although it's a bit annoying to do so. The problem right now is ESPN and all the various ESPN networks. I just need a temporary solution right now and hope this thing works itself out. I can't picture Spectrum perma dropping the ESPN's. Sports is like the main thing keeping cable alive.

It's also much harder to jump back and forth between games and networks with streaming, which is another problem for me.

I forgot to add before, I know Disney did the same pulling thing to YouTube TV in 2021, and I just know with my luck if I made a permanent move the YouTube/Disney contract would be ending and suddenly ESPN would be pulled from YouTube TV again.

There’s always some provider fighting with some content giver somewhere.

Well, we have time to think about it ! The " Cuddle & Muddle" is cute and we could keep that or I'd be OK with a change !

So let's think of the other lyrics to the theme song and see what we come up with? Or remember back what old threads were called?

" This is it, this is it , this is life the one you get , so go and have a ball" ! Maybe something on that theme?

Or " So up on your feet" ( or is it hop on your feet)? Somewhere the musics playing, don't you worry none just take it as it comes, One day at at a time........ !!

" Hold on tight ( to Richard Creamer) we'll Muddle through , One day at a time " !

We can come up with something new eventually if we decide too! I'm open for a change!
