Isn't this the greatest show! Tony Shaloub plays the part so incredibly well. Count me in; I'll bring the popcorn and drinks. Thanks for the invite.

Tony Shaloub is one of the most under rated actors ever. I mean he's playing Monk, who is nuts, he's played an immigrant cab driver, an arabic terrorist, etc. etc. Versatile is an understatement!

My family lives with OCD on a daily basis and this show has been very helpful by adding reinforcement for the behavioral modification necessary to overcome the problem. Sometimes Hollywood does get it right, and you are all correct in that Shaloub plays it so well.

and.... how about "Jeebs"(?) in Men in Black? I didn't even reconize him at first! I think within time, more and more people will come to recognize and appreciate Tony's remarkable genius.
All you need to see to know he has done incredible roles is look at his biography of film/tv roles. Click Here!
My favorite role of his, of course, still goes back to playing Antonio Scarpacci in Wings!

In a world of reality TV gone mad, this is one great show that doesn't get enough attention! We love it at my house.

I think it doesn't get enough attention simply because it's on USA and not CBS or NBC.

Yes, Michael! I watch it when I am wintering in Florida, where I have cable. I don't get cable here in Wisconsin, so I'm *@%* out of luck!

Yes, but I bet you get those yummy cheese curds out in your neck of the woods! I miss those squeeky things from my former life in Chicago and the frequent trips my father made for work to Kenosha!

LOL, Elena. I was reading the thread in a hurry, and I thought, "What an odd thing to bring." Then I "got it". Duh!

Directions?
Left at the car wash, left at the stop sign, first right and I am at the top of the hill on the right. Be here by 9. I have drinks if you want Gatorade, D-Coke or Coors Light.
I'm beginning to think the invite was disingenuous.

Me too, offering Gatorade, Diet Coke, and Coors Light but not Pepsi, Wine, or real beer? I don't think he wants anyone to show up!

Further South than I wanna be.

Michael, guess we have to bring our own pepsi products. I will also bring the M&Ms to go in the popcorn. Yummy.

The directions were above, but since you were coming from the south instead of the north, that may have thrown things off a bit. We had a great time. Did you know that KCGeoQueen can toss an M&M 12 feet into the air, geo-code it, add the color to her LAR and catch it in her mouth when it comes down? Amazing.
