Q: You know the fountain used in the opening credits for "Friends"? Is that a set or does it actually exist somewhere?
Contrary to what is apparently popular belief, the fountain in which the six friends splash around in the opening credits of "Friends" is not in New York or anywhere else normal people can go to (unless you consider actors and studio honchos "normal").
The scene was filmed on a Warner Bros. studio lot in Los Angeles.
You better 'Believe' it: NBC's new sci-fi drama can't be missed

Mixology, on ABC

Q: I am looking for two music scores. One is the score at the end of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" when Chief breaks out of the institution, and the other is the theme music for the PBS series "Nature."
The challenge in finding pieces like the ones you're looking for is figuring out what to call them. As it turns out they're both, essentially, called "Theme."
The first is officially called "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Closing Theme)" by Jack Nitzsche, and the other is even more simply titled "Nature Theme," by Alex Lasarenko.
Fortunately, both are pretty widely available, though in different places.

Q: The movie "12 Years a Slave" won a bunch of awards this year, but I remember a made-for-TV movie from the 1980s with the same story. I don't remember who played the unfortunate captive, but John Saxon played the sadistic slave owner. What was the name
"12 Years a Slave," the devastating and critically beloved 2013 film, was based on the book of the same name, an autobiography written by the titular slave, Solomon Northup. However, his autobiography had already been filmed 29 years earlier, titled "Solomon Northup's Odyssey."
It aired in 1984 as an episode of PBS's "American Playhouse," an anthology series that offered TV versions of important literary works.
The verdict is in: With the return of Season 3, 'Suits' is better than ever
Patrick J. Adams and Gabriel Macht star in "Suits"
The only thing worse than a bad lawyer is a cheap suit, but as fans know, USA Network's "Suits" has neither.
Intelligent and well-dressed lawyers argue interesting cases in this series, while simultaneously navigating some pretty messy personal drama. Season 3 of "Suits" returns with a new episode Thursday, March 6, on USA Network.
