Q: I am unable to find anything about a (cheesy) show in the '70s called "The Kids from C.A.P.E.R." I watched it every Saturday morning. I would love to know who the characters were and what they did after the show was canceled. Did I just dream up this s
It's easy to see why it might seem unreal in retrospect. A show about a team of teenage boys with names like Bugs and Doomsday, wearing bizarre outfits while fighting crime as part of an organization that's only tenuously linked to the actual police -- did I mention they were also a rock band? -- only makes sense in the context of the mid-1970s.
Rosewood, on Fox
Morris Chestnut stars as brilliant and charismatic Miami pathologist Dr. Beaumont Rosewood Jr., who teams up with Det. Annalise Villa (Jaina Lee Ortiz) to solve cases in another new episode. Rosewood's unique skill set allows him to uncover clues no one else can.
Shark Tank, on ABC
The Sharks are once again on the hunt for money-making deals, entertaining pitches from entrepreneurs with military backgrounds in this rebroadcast. Only the best ideas impress the tycoons, including recycled .50 caliber shells and a carrying case.
Q: What can you tell me about "Little People, Big World" and the Roloff farm? Also, how can I purchase their brand of salsa?
I can tell you about the Roloffs, their farm and their long-running reality show. But I'm afraid I'm going to leave you disappointed about the salsa -- according to their website (TheRoloffFamily.com), it's only available in Oregon.
For those who don't know, "Little People, Big World" is a reality show on TLC that follows Matt and Amy Roloff, little people who run a pumpkin farm in Helvetia, Oregon, where they've raised a family composed of both little and average-height children.
Scorpion, on CBS
Genius Walter O’Brien (Elyes Gabel) leads a brainy group of misfits as they battle the high-tech threats of the modern age in this new episode. While the experts are comfortable with each other, they find it difficult to fit in with average people.

Late Laughs for the week of October 18 - October 24, 2015
The Late Show: Stephen Colbert
Tonight, I'll be tangling with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. He is the third presidential candidate I've had on the show. I want to interview all of them, but I only have 200 shows a year.
Republican candidate Jeb Bush is struggling to gain traction against Donald Trump. Trump is even dominating in Jeb's home state of Florida, where the former governor is behind by 15 points. It makes sense that Florida likes Trump -- they're used to life-size cartoon characters with giant heads.

Q: I remember a sitcom, I think it was called "The Good Life," that took place in a lock-manufacturing company. In my opinion, it was one of the funniest shows ever. For some strange reason, it just disappeared. I would love to know the names of the funny
"The Good Life" lasted just one season in 1994 on NBC, which is a surprise since it introduced sitcom fans to Drew Carey.
Carey, who is of course now better known for hosting "The Price Is Right," played a sidekick to the show's actual star, fellow stand-up comedian John Caponera. By the following year, however, Carey was on his own sitcom, "The Drew Carey Show," which was significantly more successful.
