...mind," says Willie, "I was seeling a movie unfold." Sure enough, Universal Pictures is interested in making a film based on the album. Willie has formed a production company to handle the deal. A canny businessman beneath his roistering exterior, he usually produces his own albums, has several real estate holdings in Texas and is majority owner of a record label and publishing company...
...Chase is unlikely to tax the minds of viewers. Based on a negligible 1973 movie (which won Houseman an Oscar as best supporting actor), the series is a high-minded exercise in old-school TV sentimentality-a sort of Teacher Knows Best.

Arok has a motorcycle helmet for a skull, a rubber Frankenstein mask for a face, clothes-dryer exhaust hoses for arms, rubber gloves for hands and a firm, manly handshake.

Skora, in fact, had to apply for an FCC license to ensure that commands to Arok would not be competing with Led Zeppelin...

Initially a fervent enemy of the ruthlessly capitalist Farnsworth, the girl soon sees the genuine warmth and goodness of Joe beneath the Farnsworth exterior, and, of course, they fall in love...
