Why in the world is an interview with the outgoing FDNY chief worth a full minute of time on the CBS Evening News, let alone an extended chat on CBS Mornings? Oh, right, because it’s about the scary new mayor of NYC and Bari Weiss has made it clear what she wants. youtu.be/UNayaEXPy8U?...

Also playing Super Password this week in 1986: Jamie Farr, who’s plugging his new NBC movie. Among the young actors he mentions: George Clooney. Clooney was so small time then, he didn’t even get mentioned in the NBC promo.

Fun thing I learned today watching Super Password (and then Googling): Teresa Ganzel is married to Steven Van Zandt’s brother, Billy (who’s an actor/writer and was in Jaws 2, among other films).

As @allnewtpir.bsky.social somehow guessed, this woman, as of 1983, had been the main PYRAMID judge for the past 10 years—aka the woman who determined if clues were legal and whether folks beat the buzzer. She was also a producer on the show—and her profile is on LinkedIn! It’s Francine Bergman.
