Wow, how much fun, it's been ages. The guy has a SCM typewriter. LOL

I watched it way back when.

Did you?

I watched it every week!  I remember really liking the show.  And we still have a Smith Corona manual typewriter.  But I am pretty sure the ribbon must be dry as a bone...

This was one of my favorites when it was originally aired. I haven't seen it on tv since that time.

The movie from the 1970's was the best! With Timothy Bottoms - and John Houseman as the law professor!

That series was very addictive!

The TV series and the movie were good and so was the acting in both. I  still have my Smith and Corona typewriter from the 50's and it has the case to hold it In and  is in excellent condition except for the ribbon, there isn't one. I have two Brother typewriters in cases also. I am not a hoarder but there are some things that one elects not to part with for personal reasons.

This is too funny.  What were Better-half and I discussing at 3 AM this morning?  My typewriters.  I have three.  I have the manual Smith Corona (in the case) that my sister gave me before I went to college as well as the fancy "script" electric model she gave me.  I bought the third one.

Not sure why.

Better-half wants to know why I have any of them.

As for The Paper Chase, I recall watching it because there was an era in which I flirted with the idea of being a lawyer.  Today, that concept has zero appeal.
