TGIF Toys: A Dark and Stormy Knight

There he is, the guardian of Gotham -- and of laptops. He's the big, beautiful, oversized Batman of the "Justice League" figure line. BRBTV actually owns three of these guys. This particular one, which tends to perch itself atop BRB's desk, was snagged as part of an eBay lot. Watch those fingers, folks ...

BRBTV now has a YouTube channel

Yea, yea, we know ... welcome to the new millennium! Yea, and we still use the two VCRs we own!!!! Anyhow, BRBTV has at long last begun a YouTube channel so that we can share some of the fun tidbits and precious moments we encounter when we're out on the road seein' all the amazing things we see!

For instance, in this inaugural BRBTV YouTube video, Mr. Don Pedro Colley tells all about how he first nabbed the role of Sheriff Ed Little on "The Dukes of Hazzard." This video was shot at the Motor City Comic Con a week or two back ... We gave you quotes last week, but now you can experience the whole story ...




So stay tuned; we'll be uploading more, including shots of the "A-Team" van jumping at last summer's Professional Stuntman Invitational in Concord, North Carolina, and great Hollywood stunt guys like Buzz Bundy talking about their craft and their time on "Knight Rider" at the first-ever Knight Rider Festival in Las Vegas last year!

TGIF Toys: Motor City Comic Con!

We're going to round out our full week of coverage of the 2010 Motor City Comic Con by also tying in our regular Friday feature, TGIF Toys. And it's as simple as ending the week where we began, with "The Dukes of Hazzard."

A sprinkling of toys, for your viewing pleasure, from the event's Canadian Dukes of Hazzard museum display, ranging in a variety of "Dukes" incarnations over the years ...

Motor City Comic Con: Other fun and games

The costumes were out in full force at last weekend's Motor City Comic Con in Novi, Michigan. We saw all kinds of Batmans (even a cute little Batgirl in hot pink and silver!), other Bat-characters, a great Sinestro, a rather metallic Aquaman, a Leatherface, the obligatory Princess Leias in the fleshy slave outfit, and of course all kinds of other "Star Wars" characters. Above is one of the quite-well-attended photo ops that occurred throughout the weekend.

One of the best aspects of this weekend was the opportunity to see many of our friends that we only see on Facebook and other online spots the rest of the year. Above, Eric, for instance, with whom BRB once worked at The Detroit News, belongs to a "Star Trek" club called Osiris and was there with the club's display on Sunday.

Many thanks to everyone else we saw along the way -- all of the other Facebook friends who were made "real" friends once again at this event, as well as the new friends who popped in to see the "Dukes" display and visit BRB's table ... It was great fun, and we were blessed by each one of you!!!!

Motor City Comic Con: The power of star cars

You can't come to an event like the Motor City Comic Con and not see some cool star cars (especially since this is Deeee-troit we're talkin' about!). This past weekend's event at the Rock Financial Showplace in Novi, Michigan, showed some nice variety this year. Really, tell us ... how often do you see one of these ...

Yes, this is the Ecto 1 car from "Ghostbusters." Very nicely done, with an amazing amount of detail. And we're not just saying that because the owner is a friend of ours. Mike, of Metro Detroit, worked furiously on this thing in the (very) few months leading up to the event to get it ready for its big debut. Take a 360-degree spin around the car in this YouTube video.

During the weekend, Mike (above left) and our friend Krista of Philadelphia (at the camera below) offered photos with the car -- with full "Ghostbusters" gear! -- for only $5. Needless to say, it was a popular feature of the con.

BRB got to ride out of the convention hall in the car with Mike and Krista on Sunday evening, with every camera phone in the place firmly trained on!

Here's another one you don't see every day ... the Black Beauty from the '60s "Green Hornet" series.

And this macabre scene? If you don't recognize it, you're not a fan of the '70s/'80s "Mad Max" films.

Motor City Comic Con: Jenilee Harrison, Johnny Green and other famous faces

Our buddy Will "The Voice Man" Rodgers is a big "Dallas" fan, so what a privilege to be photographed with Ms. Jenilee Harrison, our own Jamie Ewing. Harrison appeared at this past weekend's Motor City Comic Con in Novi, Michigan, and the BRBTV News Blog continues special weeklong coverage of the event with this snapshot of the two along with some other assorted schtuff.

BRBTV got a chance to chat with Harrison a bit on Saturday morning. She's been involved in several ventures, including a horse farm and other projects related to her love of animals. She's been producing in the TV world and has a project coming up that's she discussing with CBS. She says it could air as soon as late this fall.



Also at the event for diehard classic TV fans was Dawn Wells of "Gilligan's Island" and Lindsay Wagner of "Bionic Woman." It's the first time we got to meet Wagner -- very cool. She tells BRBTV that the "Bionic Woman" DVDs are due out this summer (it's been reported that there were legal issues surrounding the long-awaited release) but that she has not been asked yet to tape any special features.




BRBTV also had the pleasure of meeting Johnny Green, who with his band back in the '60s appeared on the Adam West "Batman" series. He was a henchman of the Joker, and you can see him well in the episode, "Surf's Up, Joker's Under." Green -- whose hair is green, you know -- has been around Hollywood a long time. He was Liberace's agent for 37 years, and managed Bob Hope for 35 years.



Green, who accompanied Adam West at his table at the Novi con, told BRBTV the story of first nabbing the gig on "Batman," a point in his life when he was "starving" and living in a junky apartment. All of a sudden, upon landing the part, he was making $350 every three days.

"We went from nothing to something," he says. "Adam says, 'Johnny, we've been blessed.' He really appreciates where we've come from."

Green was driving a 1932 Lincoln at the time, and it drew the eye of Lucille Ball one day. "She says, 'I want that car -- it brings back memories.'" Ball leased the car from him for $175 a month. "I was rich!" he quips. Eventually, Ball offered him $7,500 for the car.

Nowadays, you can learn more about Green at his site, http://www.johnnygreenandthegreenmen.8m.com/.

Motor City Comic Con: We love us some "Dukes" ...

... At least ... one Duke and a lawman ... Mr. Byron Cherry and Mr. Don Pedro Colley, known respectively (and respectfully) as Coy Duke and Sheriff Ed Little of "The Dukes of Hazzard," were on hand at this past weekend's Motor City Comic Con at the Rock Financial Showplace in Novi, Michigan. We kick off a full week of coverage of the event with this check-in from our beloved "Dukes" realm ...

The "Dukes" has had a presence at this con for many years, but we're pretty sure this is the first time that "Dukes" guests have been featured in a panel discussion. On Friday late afternoon, Colley and Cherry assembled in one of the panel rooms along with Will "The Voice Man" Rodgers, Paul Harrington of the Canadian Dukes of Hazzard Fan Club and BRB herself to talk "Dukes."

Colley told the story of his spin on the classic show "Daktari" that eventually led to his role on "The Dukes," through the Leonard Kaufman connection (see our August 27, 2008 post). He described his strong, stern audition as Sheriff Little, when he could barely be convinced to read from a script, he was so in character:

"Sheriff Little is being told this big lie about Boss Hogg," he said to set the audition scene, "and he has a shotgun, and he cocks his shotgun as emphasis to the lie. Well, you don't have a shotgun in the producer's office. You can't very well walk around ... So I said, if you focus the sound of 'cow chips' just right, it can sound like you're cocking a shotgun. Cow-chips! Cow-chips! So I came up on the line, and I went, 'Cow-chips!' Paul Picard came right up out of his chair about that far. Boom! And he looked at me, and right after that, he's stumbling and fumbling and says, 'Well, thank-you, thank-you for the audition. That'll be enough.' I said, 'Oh, thank-you, Mr. Picard!' I took off my hat. I shook his hand. ...

"I left the office, and I no sooner got outside of his office than the telephone rang for the secretary. She says, 'It's Mr. Leonard. He wants you to come over and talk to him.' So I went over and said thank-you and so forth. And while I'm in Leonard's office, the phone rings again, and they said, 'Be ready to go to work tomorrow morning. The script is on your way. And later this afternoon you'll get a costume, and you'll pick up your costume,' and so forth. And the rest is 'the rest of the story.' "

Cherry, meanwhile, shared the story of his original audition for "The Dukes" (which was for the part of Bo, at the very beginning of the series' production) and how he later nabbed the role of Coy Duke.

Back at the Canadian Dukes of Hazzard museum display, things were hoppin' and fun all weekend. Above, display organizer Paul Harrington goofs around with Byron Cherry and a couple "Dukes" fans who traveled from long distance -- Ken of Denmark and Sabine of Germany, whom BRBTV was delighted to meet after crossing paths so many times on Facebook!

Ken tells us he first saw "The Dukes" in only 2006, but Sabine was able to begin watching the series in Germany in 1989, after satellite TV opened up new possibilities there. She says "The Dukes" aired in the late afternoon, and sometimes repeated the next morning.

"I think they missed a few episodes," she laughs. "I never could figure out why they had two sets of cousins."

The episodes were dubbed, but Sabine now owns all of the seasons on DVD, so she can actually hear the real actors in their real roles, in real English!

TGIF Toys: There's no "Blackest Night" about this one

No, it's not really a stretch. Nosiree. You see, Green Lantern is friends with Batman, and there are three (count 'em, three!) Batman TV shows covered by the reference guides of BRBTV ... Heck, we're sure Green Lantern would have even guest-starred on an episode of "Batman: The Animated Series" if given half the chance. Plus, on "Batman Beyond," there actually was a Green Lantern present, you know, that small, levitating Ghandi-type guy ...

OK, OK, it's a stretch, but this one was just too cool not to use for our weekly TGIF Toys feature. What we have here, folks, is a genuine, custom-made, lifesize, and operational, Green Lantern. All that's missing is a power ring to charge up.

Finely crafted from found parts (at the local Home Depot), this stunning creation was presented as a birthday gift to our buddy John, a big Green Lantern fan. The base is a small globe ceiling light. Drainage culverts and green spray paint also went into the construction, and inside is a thoroughly green (in color as well as usage) compact fluorescent bulb. John is "green" in more ways than one, after all.

Stop by and see us this weekend at the Motor City Comic Con

Are you heading to Deee-troit? Well, shouldn't you be???? A reminder that BRB will be there, at the Motor City Comic Con in Novi, Michigan, beginning Friday afternoon, along with Byron ("Coy Duke") Cherry and Don Pedro ("Sheriff Little") Colley of "The Dukes of Hazzard."

Come check the display of the Canadian Dukes of Hazzard Fan Club, and you'll see 'em, along with a General Lee, a Hazzard County Sheriff's car or two, and a host of cool "Dukes" memorabilia, from props actually used in the production of the series (and movies) to all kinds of signed photos and such, to cool "Dukes" stuff you can buy and take home wit' ya!

And stay tuned for coverage of the event all next week. Because that's just what we do, here at the BRBTV News Blog (don't take our word for it -- check the archives!).

Ooh-baby-ooh-baby-ooh-baby ... Grab your Scooby Snacks, 'cuz we're going on a moon bounce! This beautiful creation was part of the action at an Easter festival in Germantown, Maryland, just a few weeks ago, and what bliss it was for any fan of the '60s cartoon (OK, maybe those were the parents, but we're sure the kids liked it, too!). This inflatable paradise, fully equipped with interior slide, was classic Scooby-Doo, not that newfangled stuff (not that we mind the newfangled stuff, of course!).
