Its called desaturation. Basically like turning down the colors on your tv.
Editors often play around with the colors of a film when they are finishing
it. Also if you have the money Panavision will make up film mixtures to
affect the color as well. Which seems sort of wasteful but it is all part of
the artistic process.

 Black and white film is extremely expensive to develop now, because there

 it. The process uses mercury (toxic) and silver in it. $1k per 1 foot was
 the last quote I heard.

 What a lot of people are doing now is shooting in color then using Avid or
 Final Cut effects to make it black and white.

 I get that tastes change over the generations, that succeeding eras add

 start out used to more FX, faster action, sometimes less plot. They become
 inured to the blood and gore and explicit sex my generation took as cutting
 edge or even shocking.

 But at some point quality is just quality, and the old standards just
 can't be replaced.  For example, I love the original Star Trek series. Some
 of the best of that series--of any Trek--are some of the slower shows.
 Shows like The Conscience of the King, Charlie X, What are Little Girls
 Made of?, Balance of Terror. Some would say those eps don't have enough
 action, or that the action is too slow. I say they represent some of the
 finest dramatic writing and acting of any genre, and I love that.

 So while I can appreciate the faster action and fancier FX of Star Wars or
 even the first Transformers movie, there's still a large part of me that
 crazes good plotting and acting. I miss scifi where plot and acting is
 paramount to FX. I miss movies where characters actually talk a lot and take
 time to execute a well thought out plan before blowing up stuff. I miss
 films where the camera stays in one place for more than two seconds,
 allowing me to take a whole scene. Hell, I miss good black and white films.
 Sad so few directors even work in that medium nowadays.

 To me, gorging on the bulk of American cinema nowadays is  like saying all
 i want to eat is a fast food meal every day of burger, fries and shake. I
 *love* that stuff, but I also love sitting down to a good, relaxed meal
 where I take time to savor the food. I think H'Wood cops out by just saying
 young kids need more action. Make some quality stuff and let them get a
 taste of something other than hamburger, and they just might like it.

LOL. The scary thing is that Pam apparently had a sister who looked exactly 
liker her. So God made two of them.

Lisa Nicole Carson and Nona Gaye. *SMH* I hope they both overcome their demons. 
I'd love to see these ladies act again.

That was part of the fun of those old detective shows. The guys weren't 
invincible, weren't some kind of Special Forces/Green Beret/SEAL who could kill 
a man with their pinky. They were regular guys who had to depend on sleuthing, 
healthy tips to the local pimp or drunk for information, and good old

Oh don't make me sad! I remember the good old shows for the important works 
they were at the time due to their cultural significance, then get sad when 
they're mined shamelessly for quick cash nowadays. 
Mod Squad was a seminal show for its time. I was puzzled as to why they did a 
remake, given the power and import of the original couldn't be recaptured in 
these modern times. it just came off as someone capitalizing on the name and 
memory of a show, but not really contributing to its significance. In the 70s, 
young hippie types as cops, a black man and a woman as detectives, was 
revolutionary. In modern times it's same old same old. Even TV shows like New 
York Undercover had covered that ground by the time the movie came out. 
I felt the same about Shaft. They just cashed in on the name, then gave us a 
movie where Jackson brought nothing new to the role, made nothing approaching 
the type of statements Roundtree was making back in the day (even of some of 
those statements were sexist). And it was toothless to boot, as the studio 
demanded they cut back on all the sexuality of Roundtree's original movies. 
Then what was the point...? 
And most of all, I still lament what Tom Cruise did to the Mission Impossible 
concept with his movies. I believe that was one of the first of the recent 
trend of remakes in name only, where the studio cashes in on the cachet of a 
name, then proceeds to completely butcher the original concept. The MI movies 
were okay (the third had lots of good action thanks to Abrams), but they were 
nothing like the real concept of the series. The series were about deception, 
planning, and teamwork. They had a lot of intelligently planned and executed 
missions. The movies were star vehicles centering on Cruise, with the other 
agents as mere assistants. It was really more a spy movie based on a single 
spy. I wish they'd have just created a new franchise and not sullied the memory 
of MI by using that great series' name. And what did they to Jim Phelps 
character in the first flick was unforgivable. Peter Graves--the second but 
most well known Jim Phelps---was aghast at that move. 

Yeah, yeah I know: idiot modern, younger audiences need more action. Man I get 
tired of that excuse. What are we producing, succeeding generations of kids 
with short attention spans?

I forgot about Mannix! That was one of the first detective shows that I

on tv from 1968-75.

According to wiki Gail Fisher won multiple Emmys for that show.

Doesn't do a lot for me. I stand by the women I listed below as being prettier, 
sexier, and more attractive in personality. 
But that's just me, this is truly a matter of personal taste.

I was never enamored of Ms. Grier (sacrilege I know!), but poor Lisa Nicole 
Carson did it for me! Too bad she seems to be suffering from serious emotional 
problems. Nola Gaye, yes indeed. And let's not forget Lola Falana and Dianne 
Carroll. Oh--and Sofia Vergara from Modern Family. Wow, wow, wow! 

Halle who?
