    I didn't make up Fat Albert. He was always saying "Hey Hey Hey" so I thought he might have said "Hey Now" as well. If I'm way off mark then give us some more clues.

    The line is from a comedy, taking a behind-the-scenes look at a late night talk show.

    Woohoo. Here's one for Splunge but it will probably have gone before he gets back. Might be easy, might be tricky (knowing me, it will probably be easy)...........

    The main actors in this show included:
    - a character actor who has gone on to a career in movies (in front and behind the camera)
    - a one trick actor who went on to play an identical character in a long running but bad sitcom
    - an actor who played a Kramer-like character and went on to be the star of my third favourite movie trilogy
    - an actor whose life was the subject of a movie
    - an actress who went on to a string of terrible TV mini-series
    - ironically the star of this show probably went on to become the least famous of all his co-stars.

    Well, two of those clues make me think it might be Taxi

    Ah, good work Splunge. Yet another of my offerings is guessed on the first attempt. For clarity, the actors referred to in my clues were:
    Danny deVito
    Tony Danza (Who's The Boss)
    Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future)
    Andy Kaufman (Man in the Moon)
    Marilu Henner
    Judd Hirsch

    Your turn, Splunge-bob.

    I didn't really watch the show, but I thought deVito and Kaufman were two of the people.

    Next up:

    Buffy, Jodi and Mr. French

    Ara, if you had correctly guessed this show, I would have been shocked, since it was on when your parents were probably kids. :D

    No, not Buffy the Vampire Slayer. :p
