back when it was still vhs tapes, i recorded every show, it took 18 tapes,,northern exposure and the xfiles,they where lined up on that shelf next to each other,ed was my fave on northern exposure
Thanks for posting this. Possibly the most beautiful moment in a beautiful series. Does anyone else remember the initial opening of Northern Exposure? Not the opening credits - the single lonely scream of a Peregrine Falcon once the screen faded to black? I remember that sound from my youth in Northern Ontario; whenever I hear it it takes me home. I can't go home - but I can hear the falcon. Thanks!
flying cow is our favorite episodes as well. we just finished watching every episode from every season and now we're experiencing Northern Exposure withdrawal pains. Such a cool show.
The first time I saw this on TV, I recognized the music (The Blue Danube) from the opening intro, realized they were headed toward a takeoff of the movie "2001" (oh, the heracy!), then fell down laughing for literally five minutes. This was such a good laugh, I still remember it after almost twenty years.
I was really sad to see the end of the "Northern Exposure" series. It was the only TV show that promoted deep development of all its characters. We got to know every one of them very well. I read that there were a lot of complaints that the show was "too intellectual", with not enough "action". I guess those who make decisions about such things concluded that the public wanted only the usual pap that they didn't have to think about much---both during and after viewing. Let's hope for reruns.
Whiter Shade of Pale played when he flung his friend in the casket ... and cannot be found unless you have them on VCR tape it was removed when they came out on DVD and I'm not happy!
.......................... Joel's burglar ......the guy with the derby and the beard....... used to tend bar down in Redmond and I used to go over there and get drunk with him I got a couple of pictures of me and him it was pretty good he was a nice guy we had some fun tried to raise some hell......... but around Christmas time I ran across the little short Indian girl in a kind of Korean Deli and I was wishing them a merry Christmas and everything cuz I know these people....... and she walks up behind me and I got Starstruck .......it was a homina homina homina moment .....I couldn't speak.... I couldn't think.... nothing...... I felt so dumb...... I just sort of stood there mute feeling like an idiot....... I mean I had it made all I had to do is say Merry Christmas and they could have started a conversation with her you know I told her I liked her a four-wheel-drive truck thingy.....a baby in the front seat...... you know ..she would have fallen madly in love with me...... you know most girls do until they realize I'm not going to change therefore I must be evil and destroyed ...... but she could have Been supporting my beer habit until I died...... she seemed like a nice quiet girl ......I heard she's into Indian Affairs ....and I wish her luck........ but if you ever reminiscent looking at films from way back when like this one .....and you run across this.... I'd like to take a moment out .....and wish you a Merry Christmas ........and many happy returns............

Awesome show from the 90's.
Refreshing characters from today's dracula and zombie trash.

"It's not the thing you fling, but the fling itself." Thanks for posting!
What an Awesome show this was. Susan and I started watching all 6 seasons last week, two episodes a day. Tripping down memory lane in style.
excellent episode. I do miss Northern Exposure.
Sacrilege that the lawyers had to decide to have removed A Whiter Shade of Pale from this memorable scene.
LOL, thanks for this! I miss this show so much. I love Maurice's totally confused look after Chris' comment, LMAO!

Simply the best scene among the best scenes of the best series.
This was one awesome show. Brings back good memories.
My favorite episode in the entire series.
I'm always partial to a Ruth Ann and Walt or an Adam and Eve episode.
One of my favourite moments from my favourite ever series. Thank you.
I miss that show so much.
"it's not what you fling, it's the fling itself." Love it!
great episode; this show was superb, thanks for posting

the funny thing is that I felt "it" too.. you have to love NE, 1 of the best shows ever :)
It's not the thing you fling, it's the fling itself.
always loved that show!
What about the episode when they fling the corpse?
In this colorless version it feels more like I'm remember the scent than seeing it again.
I wish someone would post the one with Tooley's coffin being flung into the lake, to the tune of "White Shade of Pale".
Why do I remember that it was Whiter Shade of Pale playing while the piano was airborne?
Because it was.
Whiter Shade of Pale played when he flung his friend in the casket ... and cannot be found unless you have them on VCR tape it was removed when they came out on DVD and I'm not happy!
NX was a show that "watched" like a book.
@klimber1000
It is available on DVD.
It was released about 2 or 3 years ago.
I always wondered when all of the burn-outs from my home town moved-now I know.
@Vort317545 Northern Exposure was once in a life time experience . That's it.
I've always wanted my own trebeche, they have ads for free pianos in the local papers at least once a month.
Actually the background music was a Strauss Waltz, Johann Strauss not Richard Strauss.
HAHAHAHA. god i loved this how.
best example of a "rest" in music! ...minus the Stravinsky back ground music.
out f/n standing,,,remember it well,like yesterday
Here, here, good sir! Well said!
This show illustrates the potential of television as a medium to express art... alas we have regressed into the mirror opposite... f*ckin sad...
John Corbett, HOT as hell. been loving him a long time...
they should of, played a strieght clip of the piano flying ?
Was that an old piano that was flung from the catapult?

Int was done in a MONTY Python movie, "Monty Python & The Holy Grail."
@13strong that was cool,season 4 I think.

It was obviously a cow.
That would be Just. The. Best. if the piano had landed on a moose.
It doesn't look better.
I want do it
Hehee
Best thing about your videos is that they are full screen without that distracting small window on most others. I HATE those!!!
Thanks
LOL what the ?

Because I think it looks better, like a old movie.
It's not the thing you fling, it's the fling itself.
