Most of the town scenes were in Hammond. They used the Daly Star for the scene when they break into U.S’ newspaper company..

So...is it a goner? I own the movie on DVD. But surely Amazon will cave. It just is waiting its turn behind Gone With the Wind.

Coming to America is my dark horse to be canceled. Even though it is about royalty.

There should be some negotiations allowed. “You can keep Blazing Saddles but you have to give up The Toy”.

Master Bates and young Eric are one in the same. But “U arse” and Jack would be appalled.

Because it makes no sense to cancel it. Thus, they cancel it.


And McDowell's ought to be ready to settle that lawsuit with McDonald's now.
