On the Batman series, when ever Batman and Robin were captured, why did no one ever think of unmasking them?

How did The Skipper in Gilligan's Island maintain his girth by just eating fruit, coconuts, and fish?

No carbs, no animal fats or dairy, no bacon?

Back to Batman. If you had him tied, up why not just put a bullet in his head, instead of some elaborate plan to kill him?

Why did Fred Flintstone get the large order of ribs at the end of every show if he knew it would flip the car over? Wink

Every time Lucas Mc Cain from "The Rifleman" went to town, he had to shoot a few people. Why didn't he just have his stuff delivered?

Tonto was constantly getting beaten up. Why did he hang out with the Lone ranger? That relationship usually resulted in an epic ass kicking.

This goes both ways... after the third or fourth time a supervillain escapes from superprison and kills a bunch of people, you'd think someone might come up with the bright idea to just kill the bad guy so it doesn't happen again.

Back to Gilligan.
Why did everyone take their suitcases full of clothes on a three hour tour. Why would the Howells, who owned a yacht, be on the boat anyway?

Most recently I've been watching many of Jean-Claude Van Damme movies and what I kept seeing is that knot or bump on the right side of his forehead. And as many movies over a period of time the knot is still there. I was figuring something in-operable, maybe a tumor or cyst. Out of curiosity I did a web search to see if there were medical reasons for not removing it. Though many of the replies were hilarious as you'd expect from the internet, I was looking for serious answers. I had a Golden Retriever (bless her heart) that got a large tumor-like growth on her back. I had it surgically removed and a year later it returned again.

Maybe Jean-Claude something similar? He's a great martial artist though, very flexible guy.

Why does it only take Chip Foose one week to do a complete restoration on a nearly junk vehicle, yet my vehicles always took weeks to come back from accident repair?

On an episode of the Andy Griffith show, they were teaching Ernest T. Bass to read and write, yet in the first episode he appeared, he was throwing rocks with notes attached to them.

He had a beef with the USPS carrier, and they skipped his place on purpose.

NCIS Special Agent Jethro Gibbs has been working on that boat of his in his basement for 16 years. So far, I see absolutely no progress at all. Why doesn't he just give up, or find a new hobby?

The A team.

That's it. The whole show is one big WTF? for me.

Who then would Marvel bring out for the third part of a sequel trilogy?

Why are most shows on TV even there? They SUCK.

He was never married. It was a cover for his alternative lifestyle. Opie was a product of a relationship that Goober had with Aunt Bea. This was revealed by Floyd the barber in episode 57.

There was an episode of MASH going from Jan 1 1951 to Jan 1 1952 with Colonel Potter. Potter arrived in Sept. 1952.

Also an episode where Margaret's father visits. Earlier episodes stated her father was dead.
