Chris Elliott is, of course, the son of Bob Elliott, of
the Bob and Ray, but we've seen him a lot over the past couple of decades, including his stint as the Barone family's weirdest in-law (and that's saying a lot) on
Everybody Loves Raymond.Nice film choices, Chris!
In other news, my jaw dropped when I saw TCM was running feature films on the characters from
The Man from U.N.C.L.E., a show we all watched religiously back in the day, though I don't think anyone in my family went to see the movies.
