Deney Terrio

[Freelance Hack]

Since we have an Adrian Zmed thread, I think it's only fair we have one for Mr. Terrio as well.

Didn't Deney once sue Merv Griffin for making a pass at him?

I think so. I believe he told Merv he "wasn't ready yet".

 

[Ace]

Didn't Deney teach John Travolta how to dance?

Never heard of this guy, so I looked him up on IMDB.

Hey! He was in Star Trek 2: Wrath of Khan. He was...uhm....uh....one of Khan's crewmen. Yeah.

I will be seriously disappointed if either this or the Zmed thread winds up longer than this one:

Leslie is a God! How dare you compare him to heathens like Zmed and Terrio and Bronson Pinchot. Grrrr!

Deney Terrio was Dance Fever. And although I didn't like disco all that much, my 7 p.m. Saturday night TV options were limited when I was a kid. And there was no way in hell that I'd watch Hee Haw.

Some may say Dance Fever jumped the shark when Wayne Gretzky served as a celebrity judge -- and thus met Janet Jones. But the true jump the shark moment was when they forced Adrian Zmed upon us. Dance Fever was never the same after that.

Saturday nights I was usually with my dad while he was covering a high school football or baseball game. I truly don't remember watching TV on Saturday nights.

This was a syndicated show, just like Solid Gold, Star Search and Puttin' on the Hits. It aired here on Saturday nights -- may have aired another time elsewhere.

Of course, the other side of it was that it was a dance show. I only watched one that MTV showed.

What, no Don Cornelius thread?

the shame.

Don Cornelius is too cool for a thread.

Now Yukon Cornelius or Cornelius from Planet of the Apes? That's up for discussion.

We had Dance Fever on Saturday nights when I was a kid.

When I was a teenager, the Saturday night fare was She's The Sheriff, Marblehead Manor and everyone's favorite show about a teenaged alien who can stop time by touching her pointer fingers together...OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! You have no idea how many mornings began with me crawling out of bed to do my paper route and wishing I could just stop time so I could sleep in.

I'm jealous and threatened by this thread.

If the end of the world was ever to come, I'd at least hope we'd have some time for a Zmed-Terrio fight to the death., That's one question I'd want answered before I go.
