    Reportedly the TV series Moonlighting is available to stream on Hulu soon. Someone elsewhere posted their favorite bit of banter from the show:

    Security Officer : I’m sorry, but you’re not on the guest list.

    David Addison : That’s because we’re not guests. We’re looking for a man with a mole on his nose.

    Security Officer : A mole on his nose?

    Maddie Hayes : A mole on his nose.

    Security Officer : [to Maddie] What kind of clothes?

    Maddie Hayes : [to David] What kind of clothes?

    David Addison : What kind of clothes do you suppose?

    Security Officer : What kind of clothes do I suppose would be worn by a man with a mole on his nose? Who knows?

    David Addison : Did I happen to mention, did I bother to disclose, that this man that we’re seeking with the mole on his nose? I’m not sure of his clothes or anything else, except he’s Chinese, a big clue by itself.

    Maddie Hayes : How do you do that?

    David Addison : Gotta read a lot of Dr. Seuss.

    Security Officer : I’m sorry to say, I’m sad to report, I haven’t seen anyone at all of that sort. Not a man who’s Chinese with a mole on his nose with some kind of clothes that you can’t suppose. So get away from this door and get out of this place, or I’ll have to hurt you - put my foot in your face.

      Mount Olympus, the home of the Greek gods was on earth.

      Zeus also spent most of his time away from Mount Olympus trying (and succeeding) to bone various young women.

        Did Zeus and Persephone spend much time together? I didn’t get further in the story than the half of the year she spends ruling the underworld and I thought “badass” and moved on without learning about how she spent her other time with her momma on earth.
