Not a lot of Bob offered up on TCM for November, but they are showing a Joel & Garda mini-marathon. For those who don't know, Joel & Garda Sloane are similar to Nick & Nora Charles in their detective ways, but there's less booze and no dog. Can you say DVD box set?

Why I have never heard of this series before. Thanks for the heads up.
Wait- Busby Berkeley is directing Fast And Furious? That should be interesting.
I didn't know that about Busby either, there really aren't any "women everywhere" musical scenes in it. Joel does have an eye toward the ladies though ;0)
