It's a shame Roc doesn't get much love from folks. Probably one of the best casts ever assembled in a sitcom, and the acting was top-notch, as one would expect from talented theater veterans. They even did a live season where every episode was a mini play.
But alas, it was on early FOX.

Huh weird how those Southern dad jokes about greeting your daughter’s prom dates with a gun seem to evaporate in a situation like this.
All the adults failed her including her dad
"Honestly, I have no ill will towards that young man or his family. Kids are kids, & they do dumb things just like adults do. So, especially at that age, they don’t comprehend the severity of what they do" said the girl's dad

Who in this blip of a lifetime, on this fragile earth, in this whisper of a dream of an existence, has ever assumed a continuity in the James Bond franchise
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."
