Had some fun viewing tonight. Started off with THE MUPPET SHOW with Elton John.

Can he ever have been so youthful and fit? (Can I ever have been?) Just scary to see him in this period of his career.

Funny how I see movie stars who had long career like Crawford, Davis, Wayne, etc. and their changes over the years I can take with the blink of an eye. But seeing the young Elton John tonight REALLY made me feel supremely OLD.

PSYCH in high definition was a lot of fun. It was that fun case about the missing $5 million antique engagement ring (I think this was the third episode of the series). NBC probably won't show many more of the episodes on Monday nights, but I certainly enjoyed seeing this one in widescreen.

I agree with TCB...Shakespeare's the only philosopher I need.

I never studied philosophy in school.  I don't know from philosophy.  My basic philosophy is the three  "g's".  "Grow up, quit griping, get on with it."

THE CLOSER had a episode with a wonderful twist in the middle of the show, but apart from that, I guessed this week's murderer pretty easily. (Admittedly, the list of suspects was pretty thin this week.)

And the interrogations of Brenda concerning her past association with Will Pope gave another dimension to the show with brenda feeling vulnerable and in danger of losing what she's fought so hard to achieve at the LAPD - respect.

Tonight's MEDIUM repeat had some scary moments, but I remember commenting during the season that I found the resolution much too quick and too pat. I still feel it was.

Before PSYCH came on, I put in FORBIDDEN PLANET. Since a new remastered special edition disc is coming in a few months, I figured I'd watch this old transfer one last time since I will likely never see this DVD again once I get the new version (unless Warners manages to botch it up.)

More about it tmorrow.

Well, eight-thirty on a Monday night and we're heading towards a new all-time low unless we get a frenzy or two.  Congratulations to all the errant and truant for helping to achieve that dubious distinction.

Well, here is a post.

I just watched the first episode on my budget DVD of 12 episodes from 1950 THE BUFFALO BILL, JR TV series...it was a lot of fun...that Dick Moore has a whole lot a personality...I don't know how popular this show was, but I hope it did well. I look forward to watching the other 11 episodes on the discs.

Also with this disc were episodes of the 1950s western FRONTIER DOCTOR, which was quite entertaining as well. I watched all 6 episodes a few months back. Had never heard of the show before, but it had some very interesting storylines.

6 episodes of the 1960s comedy/western series PISTOLS AND PETTICOATS filled out the disc...I only got through 2 before giving up. One of my interviewees Dorothy Green appeared in one episode, so at least that was fun. I understand that star Ann Sheridan passed away during the shows run...she looked very ill in the two episodes that I saw.

There is a bumper on TCM right now that has Miss Joanne Woodward dissing Miss Lana Turner's performance in THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE.

I guess miss Woodward's New Yawk/Method/Plain Jane style has always escaped me....but this is too much!!!

Joanne should take another look at her performances in NEW KIND OF LOVE, RALLY ROUND THE FLAG BOYS, and FROM THE TERRACE before she starts throwing around too much criticism.  :o

Yes, I remember Ann Sheridan passing away during the run of PISTOLS 'N PETTICOATS. The show's ratings were very poor even before she passed away, and I'm not sure the show made it through an entire season of episodes. I could go look it up. I'm downstairs and the reference books are all upstairs.

Having watched Glenda Jackson in SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY recently and her cameo in THE BOY FRIEND over this past weekend, I got a hankering to see THE MUSIC LOVERS. Came to learn I did not have it on laserdisc, the VHS is pan and scan (it's a Panavision movie), and the DVD is not on the docket for any near future release. (All I had was the soundtrack LP.)

Funny which films get chosen for release and which don't.

Mr. Barnum, that is no way to start a frenzy.

I've always been really fond of Des Cartes.  The meditations were some of the most entertaining reading I did during my college years.
