Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
toko1959 I remember watching this show also as a kid. I was saddened that they didn't continue it at the time. I too have been waiting/looking for it to show up on TV Land or something eventually, but it hasn't. I think TV LAnd should run it some Saturday or Sunday in the future as an all day marathon type thing. After 40+ years, I'd like to see it again myself. I found it quite funny & it had some good actors of the day portraying the astronauts and the cave man clan. Plus all the dinosaurs & volcanoes always kept my interests as a young person in 2nd grade. This, just like Gilligans Island never ran enough episodes. They were good shows to a person of THIS generation, that maybe the OLDER generations didn't like. You know, the Sinatra, Gary Cooper, & John Wayne generation. I do suppose it was cornball/stupid to those folks, but to a kid like me, I waited for it to come on each and every week.
mamaw-martin The show came out when I was only 6 and I have been singing the theme song ever since. People look at me like I'm crazy. They think I am making this up. I am so glad to see that other people remember the show also. It was one of my favorites. I would love to get the whole series on DVD for my grand children ages 2, 5 and 7. They would love it.I was pleased to see that someone had all the words to the theme song. I copied them and showed them to my brother who is 7 years older then me to prove I wasn't nuts. After he read it he remembered the show. We laughed about it for hours. He finally came up with the names of the actors so that I could look them up to see if we could really validate what we remembered.
horrorfilmx I found the common thread through most of the member comments for IT'S ABOUT TIME to be hilarious: three pages of comments from startled people who all thought they were the ONLY ones who remember the show! And everyone can still whistle the theme song. The thing that captivated me about this show when I was a kid were the dinosaurs, lifted mostly from the movies DINOSAURUS! and THE BEAST OF HOLLOW MOUNTAIN. In fact in one scene where a tyrannosaurus (from DINOSAURUS!) is supposed to be trying to attack some cave men hiding in a cave you can clearly see that it's actually digging away at the entrance to a mine, complete with supporting timbers and a sign warning people to keep out. Later on when (I assume) the show wasn't doing too well in the rating and the producers decided to bring cave people back to the future in a sort of BEVERLY HILLBILIES scenario I quickly lost interest. The only other things about the show that really stand out in my memory are the goofy cast of cave people (Mike Mazurki, Joe E. "Ooh! Ooh!" Ross, Imogene Coca, and a sort of prehistoric Daisy Duke who always wore nylons under her animal skins) and the fact that one of the two astronauts (I think if was Frank Aletter, although I'm not sure) had to dye his hand blonde because the producers didn't want two brunettes in the leads.You know, that's a lot to stick in one's memory after forty years!I could easily see this show being resurrected as a big budget theatrical comedy (replacing "cheesy" stop-motion dinos with cheesier CGI effects), with Tom Arnold as the leader of the cave family and Will Farrell and Greg Kinnear as the astronauts. Ugghhhh.......
anubis-45 It is indeed a pleasure to read that someone else in this VAST UNIVERSE has heard of, and remembers the comedy series "It's About Time", for I thought that I was the only one...I mentioned it to my Dad the other day, and he couldn't recall it....(I am 55 and he is 80!!) All I really remember is the two astronauts, stuck in the time-shift which brings them back to ancient civilization, and the fact that "over the hill" and "other side of valley" were significant.The laughs then sort of come at you, like an episode of "F Troop", but it is still a long time ago...The theme ("It's About Time, It's About Space,.....") has also stuck in my head over the years, and I would love to see it on DVD.I am not THE ONLY ONE....
