Just got done watching Lifetime Channel's "The District." It looks like a good show -have been forgetting to catch it on Sunday nights.

Notice Nancy McKeon (Jinny on the show & Jo on Facts of Life show) has her tv Dad from FoL as her Dad on "The District."

Alex Rocco?

Never seen The District -- seen probably WAY too much Facts of Life ....

Yep, Alex Rocco.

About eight years ago I was watching a Batman (60s show) and noticed his familar face in the Penquin's rough-abouts. In the credits I looked for his name to confirm my eyes and there it was. Holy King Rat Batman!

I wasn't expecting much from "The District" last night particularly with Nancy. Her attempts for a weekly series haven't empressed me but last night she and the entire show was pretty good -in my opinion.

I did, though noticed a pinch of "Jo" in the "Jinny" character though, which Nancy's other endeavors didn't.

Alex Rocco also played one of the lead characters in a Russ Meyer movie, Motorpsycho! (1965?)

yes I have seen him in other things but the Batman episode was the first thing to come to my mind.

Here is a link to his movie credits:

SCI-FI channel is playing Batman this am. Just watched the first episode for the day that featured "Bookworm" as the villian. The end credits were hard to read because they were advertising another SCI-FI show. Wouldn't have noticed his name today.

I see they were together in:

Love, Honor and Obey: The Last Mafia Marriage (movie, 1993)

Which now that my memory has been activated I do recall that.
