While filming Caddyshack, Rodney Dangerfield was convinced he was bombing . . . because no one was laughing.
His co-star had to remind him that the crew couldn’t laugh due to the fact that they were filming.
Happy Birthday to the King of One-Liners!

Here's the disco-tastic intro to "Evening Magazine" from 1981.
Depending on what part of the country you were in, this may look very similar to the intro to "PM Magazine" (it was the same show with different titles based on where it aired).

Sally Field is often remembered for her 1985 Best Actress acceptance speech for "Places in the Heart": "You like me! You really like me!"
She didn't really say that, though. Her actual line was "I can’t deny the fact that you like me. Right now, you like me!"
