Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman, marking my 106th episode of VideoFuzzy titled "NERD SHOW!" reporting the progress I've made in cataloging thousands of VHS transfers and digital recordings.

The title comes from my Fuzzy Feature, episodes of The History Channel's "The Universe" that turned up in my cataloging efforts including "The Seven Wonders of The Solar System," "Extreme Energy," "Light Speed" and "Time Travel."

In Cross Connections I highlight appearances by Savion Glover on The Colbert Report, Seth MacFarlane and Pamela Anderson at the Comedy Central Roast of David Hasselhoff. Also Dean Norris, Neil Grayston, René Auberjonois, Rhea Perlman, Bruno Campos, Tom Skerritt, Bob Gunton, Michael Rappaport, Robert Wisdom, Gregory Itzen, Jean Smart, John Michael Higgins and John Cena. I identify Robert Patrick of "Peacemaker" as a Golden Thread in my collection.

Finally, I follow an appearance by Derek Hamilton in "Psych" to his appearance in mid-'90s FOX production "Strange Luck," which lead me on a journey that turned up 15 episodes of that show on a YouTube channel called "Videos and Memories" (https://www.youtube.com/@VideosandMemories-h9c)

In my Classic Collection [VHS-to-DVD transfers] this set covered discs 1926-1950. I found interviews with photographer Doug Beasley and artist Andy DuCett on "Minnesota Original," shared to VideoFuzzy's Instagram. I note the passing of Jamaican artist Jimmy Cliff's passing, his having appeared on The Colbert Report archived to disc 1926. Also, comments on "Psych," "Tosh.0," "The Comedy Central Roast of David Hasselhoff," "Monty Python's Flying Circus," "Kids in the Hall" and their 2010-era effort "Death Takes a Holiday."

In Book Reports, I note author and fellow podcaster Kemper Donovan's third installment in the ghostwriter mystery series "Sweet Spot" is now available for preorder, and talk about "The Woman in Cabin 10" by Ruth Ware, an author I learned of through his production with late, fondly remembered cohost Catherine Brobeck.

In my Current Collection [direct to digital], spoiler-free comments on "Schitt's Creek," "Only Murders in the Building" and "Peacemaker" (second season opening sequence: https://youtu.be/xS11-GIemXY). Also P!nk's "I'm Not Dead" concert from 2007 and commentary on indy Canticle production "End of the Rope" (2023) Other movies I watched include "Coco," "Noises Off," "Cocaine Bear," "Let's Kill Ward's Wife," "Bros," "Spoiler Alert," "M3GAN," "The Fifth Element," "In Time," "Black Adam," "Sorry to Bother You," "Fritz the Cat," "Labyrinth," "The Dark Crystal," and may I HIGHLY recommend psychological spy thriller "Black Box" with Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett. Finally, I note with some irritation changes to tubi's presentation of classic "Doctor Who."

In What I've Been Watching, watch for "Knives Out 3: Wake Up, Dead Man" on Netflix. Also, spoiler-free comments on "Wicked: For Good" and "Zootopia 2."

And having found that YouTube channel, here's where I dig into "Strange Luck," the unlikely set of circumstances that led me to it, my astonishment at finding it at all and how enjoyable I found it to be after all these years. Also, a cheerful little coincidence that led me to a comment about coincidences themselves in an episode of the "All About Agatha" podcast's back catalog, also shared to VideoFuzzy's Instagram page.

TOP FIFTEEN: Here's a "Top Fifteen" episode guide for people looking for a quick read-in on this blog and podcast effort: https://videofuzzy.libsyn.com/about. Enjoy! 🙃

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman, marking my 105th episode of VideoFuzzy, reporting the progress I've made in cataloging thousands of VHS transfers and digital recordings.

My Fuzzy Feature is "Happy Town 2," following up from "Ep. 101: Happy Town" after the balance of those episodes turned up in my classic collection, and I archived the two that only aired online to my current collection.

This set covers discs 1901 to 1925 in my Classic Collection. My Fuzzy Feature represents a look back at discs 1820, 1825, 1834, 1835, 1861, 1868, 1878 and disc X549 from my current collection, along with my 14th-ever "VideoFuzzy the Video" posted here: https://youtu.be/c3nd-ra93Zo

Cross Connections through the mystical centers of my media collection -- Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Joss Whedon productions, Six Feet Under and Ryan Murphy Productions -- are Studio Whedon Under Murph or SWUM, and "Happy Town" was a nexus for all of them. Also appearing in this set: Joe Koppinger, Jade Tailor, Rutger Hauer, Anthony Stewart Head, Kylie Minogue, Matt Lucas, Weird Al Yankovic, Richard Kind, Burt Reynolds, Steven Culp, Alan Ruck and Garrett Dillahunt.

In Book Report, I got my home library set up and added books by Lucy Foley, Nita Prose, Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, Ngaio Marsh, Sophie Hannah and Ellis Peters.

In my Classic Collection, I chat with my Minot theater friend Joe Koppinger about his work in the third season "Leverage" production "The Studio Job," our time on stage together and what he's done since, including his comic book, collectible and pop culture discussion YouTube channel "Crazy Hungarian" at https://bit.ly/4nvbLfY. Also, comments on "The Glades," "Rizzoli and Isles," "Covert Affairs," "Haven" and "Doctor Who" among others, including "The Universe" and "Parks and Rec." Also, getting my home office up to speed and filling gaps in my commercial media.

In my Current Collection, along with the final web-released entries of "Happy Town," I archived the two short seasons of "Galavant" and so far about three seasons of "Schitt's Creek," both released on hulu, and "Queens of Mystery" off Utah Public Television.

Also, I had a couple dozen music videos by artist DJ Benjamin Koll. I'd chatted with him for my world music VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack "Ep. 14: Osito," and I included the second part of that conversation here under Video Outreach, talking about his music videos, posted to his YouTube channel at https://bit.ly/4627Hys, and I chat a bit about the bear culture we reference.

In Off the Shelf, I go off the rails a bit with comments on the 1996 Peter Falk, Woody Allen production of Neil Simon's "The Sunshine Boys." Also, in Old Business I chat about a DVD of Grand Jubilee performances from Branson, Mo., and a box set of remastered Rodgers & Hammerstein Classics I found when I was clearing my mom's space last spring.

In What I've Been Watching, Ralph and I got to Seth MacFarlane's "Naked Gun" reboot, starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson, James Gunn's "Superman," and the invention of something called a "musical" at the Ruth and Nathan Hale Theater in Pleasant Grove, Utah, where Ralph and I took in the hilarious Shakespeare-themed comedy, "Something Rotten."
