I don't mind BW; it's a humorous thing, all in).

They did try a television prequel to "Casablanca" starring David Soul, it didn't last.
Now for something off topic:
There has been talk of simplifying spelling by reducing the number of letters in the alphabet by eliminating unneeded letters. But what if the opposite was actually a better option: Reducing the number of sounds each letter makes to one, and assigning some sounds to new or redefined letters.
As an example is the letter "c." While it does not have a unique sound right now, what if it was given its own sound, that of "ch" (which it does in some words)? In the same way, the letter "x" could be given the "ks" sound, and the ampersand (&) could be given the "and" sound (would "sand" would become "s&" and "stand" would become "st&").
