It's taken a bit of time for Chris to get on board with the year of the Stitch-up, but this week he's fully on board with the pick, Smokey and the Bandit 3. The production of Smokey and the Bandit Part 3 (1983) was plagued by confusion, last-minute changes, and a noticeable lack of direction—both literally and creatively. Initially conceived as Smokey IS the Bandit, the film was supposed to center entirely around Jackie Gleason playing both Sheriff Buford T. Justice and the Bandit himself. Universal even shot a version of the film under this premise, but test audiences were so baffled by the concept that the studio pulled the plug and hastily reshot large portions of the film, reinstating Jerry Reed's Cledus "Snowman" Snow as the new Bandit. Burt Reynolds, whose charisma had anchored the first two entries, wanted no part of the third film and only appeared in a brief cameo, further cementing the sense that the magic of the original was long gone.Behind the scenes, the budget was slashed and the enthusiasm of the cast and crew matched it. Gleason, a comedic titan, was reportedly frustrated with the rewrites and changes, and his performance suffered under the weight of a poorly conceived script. The film's tone teetered awkwardly between slapstick and tired repetition, and critics pounced on it for lacking the heart, fun, and chemistry of its predecessors. Despite all this, Smokey and the Bandit Part 3 did manage to close out the trilogy—albeit with a screech rather than a roar—serving as a cautionary tale of how a franchise can run out of gas when it loses its original spark.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesbackTrailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world where bootlegging beer is out and hauling stuffed fish is in, one retired sheriff is about to hit the road... one last time. When Big Enos and Little Enos cook up a cross-country prank, Sheriff Buford T. Justice takes the bait—literally—hauling a prized fish from Florida to Texas. But there's a twist... Cledus “Snowman” Snow steps into the Bandit's boots to turn the tables and reclaim the legend. Now, it's a high-octane race filled with car crashes, barroom brawls, and enough denim to clothe a small town. Smokey and the Bandit Part 3—because when the Bandit's away, the Smokey will play.thevhsstrikesback@gmail.comhttps://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick! On this week's episode, Beth and Caroline sit down with 2-time Emmy Award Winner, Henry Bronchtein, a longtime producer and director whose career spans decades and includes classic movies and TV shows like Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull, the HBO hit, The Sopranos, and Paramount hit, EVIL.

Interact with Beth, Caroline, Producer Mike, and all of the DTS listeners! GUEST BIO: henry bronchtein Henry Bronchtein was born and raised in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn, New York, the youngest of three sons of a cab-driver father and a homemaker. Henry attended New York University's Tisch School of The Arts to study filmmaking. Perhaps his first big break was working on Raging Bull (1980), as the apprentice assistant director to fellow NYU alumnus, Martin Scorsese. "As a child I was an avid reader, devouring every novel and every comic book put in front of me. I am a member of the first generation to be raised on television. Growing up my favorite shows were Rod Serling 's The Twilight Zone (1959), Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1955), I Love Lucy (1951), and The Honeymooners (1955). I particularly loved Jackie Gleason''s vision of the working-class life of a bus driver living in Bensonhurst. It not only made me laugh it seemed to illustrate and illuminate my life. "When I was sick, my mother would go to the corner candy store and buy every comic book on the stand for me. She would install me on the living room couch, in front of the TV with them. There I'd lay with a blanket, a pillow and a glass of hot tea laced with a teaspoon of cognac; this was the prescription for healing. I would rest there for hours, reading and watching television, engrossed in the worlds of drama and comedy. At an early age I experienced their ability to reach me in important ways." ### For over 35 years, Beth Kushnick has created character-driven settings for countless award-winning television series and feature films.

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers Created by Irving Brecher, the best-known incarnation of The Life of Riley came to the air Sunday January 16th, 1944 at 3PM eastern time over The Blue Network. It starred William Bendix as Chester A. Riley and was sponsored by The American Meat Institute. Riley was easily exasperated, but difficult to defeat. The difficulty increased by degrees with the flimsiness of Riley's cause. Bendix was born on January 14th, 1906 in Manhattan, New York. He came out of the New Jersey Federal Theater project, a latecomer to the profession, beginning at thirty when the grocery store he was running went out of business. His film career began in 1942. He was often the hooligan with the heart of gold. Riley was his most famous character. It co-starred the previously heard Hans Conreid as Uncle Baxter with John Brown as both Riley's friend Gillis and the undertaker, Digger O'Dell. Paula Winslowe was Riley's long-suffering wife Peg. Sharon Douglas was Babs and Conrad Binyon played Junior. The Life of Riley proved popular enough that in June of 1944 it was moved to Sundays at 10PM. When the series returned for the fall, its October 1944 rating was 4.7. On Sunday, October 29th, 1944 Junior was dared by his friends to visit the haunted Sherman house. He ropes Riley into going with him. Jeanette Nolan guest-stars on the show as Mrs. Sherman, who isn't a ghost, but is in fact a widow who lost her husband in the War and became a shut-in afterwards. Beginning in the fall of 1945 it moved to NBC where it was a mainstay for six seasons. It peaked in 1947-48 with a rating of 20.1, good for fourteenth overall that year. A TV version debuted in October of 1949, first with Jackie Gleason as Riley and later with William Bendix playing the familiar role for five years.

The younger of two children, his brother Clement died from meningitis at fourteen in 1919. Six years later his father left the family. Gleason's mother Mae got a job as a subway attendant for the Brooklyn–Manhattan Transit Corporation. Jackie spent his youth hustling pool and performing in class plays.

When Jackie was nineteen in 1935 his mother died from complications of sepsis. He worked his way up to a job at Manhattan's Club 18. Jack Warner saw him, signing Gleason to a contract for two-hundred-fifty dollars per-week. Jackie married dancer Genevieve Halford on September 20th, 1936. The couple had two children: Geraldine, born in 1940, and Linda, born in 1942. Classified as 4-F and rejected for military service, by the summer of 1944 a twenty-eight year-old Gleason had appeared in films opposite Ann Sheridan, Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson, and Betty Grable. He also became known for hosting all-night parties in his hotel suite. His hotel soundproofed his apartment out of consideration for its other guests.
