From the archives...what watching TV is like in our famiily:
Last night, flipping through the channels, we came across The Fugitive. The following is pretty close to actual discussion:
Cotter: Hey, that's Han Solo!
Me: That's right.
Kaylyn: Why is he running?
Me: Because they think he did something bad.
Kaylyn: So Han Solo is a bad guy?
Me: No, he didn't do what they said he did.
Kaylyn: So who did?
Me: A one-armed man.
Cotter: Hey! That's 'K.' (Tommy Lee Jones, referring to his Men In Black character)
Me: Oh yeah. That's right. Agent K is trying to catch Han Solo.
Cotter: Where's 'J?'
Me: He's not in this movie?
Cotter: Is that singing dog in this one?
Me: No, he's not in this one.
Cotter: Who let the dogs out? Woof woof woof woofwoof woof!
Me (to Kelli): That's a little unrealistic...the Chicago Police would not shoot at him if he was unarmed.
Kaylyn: What do you mean unarmed? He's has two arms. I thought you said a one-armed man was the bad guy. I'm confused!
Me: No...wait...Han Solo...does have two arms....'unarmed' means he doesn't have a weapon.
Kaylyn: Han Solo uses his arms as weapons?
Kelli (to me): I am laughing at you, Professor 'Inside the Actor's Studio.'
Me: Let's see what else is on....
