Mmmmm...do they still make Dove Ice Cream bars?  I haven't had one in years.

Yes, they still make Dove Ice Cream Bars.  Alas, I believe they stopped making the Dove Ice Cream Miniatures.

[JoseSPiano]

PAGE THREE DOVE ICE CREAM MINIATURES DANCE!!!

[John G.]

Good afternoon, all.

[John G.]

Happy, happy, DR Cason.

[John G.]

TOD:

DVD -- "The Girl by the Lake"

MP3 -- Springsteen sings Pete Seeger

CD: Guy Haines

Car CD: Disc 22 of 26 in "Vanity Fair." The end is in sight!

[John G.]

I never mentioned "Julia Ross," either. Don't think I knew of the film before yesterday.

[JoseSPiano]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR CASON!!!!!

[JMK]

Project Runway's elimin-ee was very hard to watch last night.  I don't think I've ever seen a contestant on any reality show take their elimination quite so badly.  I worry for this person's mental health.

This person is on a reality show, right? What mentality?

I'm up, I'm up - wow, guess I needed a really good night's sleep and I got it.  Ten hours, baby.

Travel Vibes to DR Jane!

TOD:

Last night I watched the theatrical version of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST on blu-ray and was dutifully enchanted.

I watched the special features on the blu-ray of PSYCHO, which I will get to sometime.

~~~~~TRAVEL VIBES TO DR JANE~~~~~



Hmmm, I wonder if I should text her a list of my favorite Chicago bakeries.

[MBarnum]

DR TCB, to answer your question from last night's posts: I am loving my new apartment!!!

[JoseSPiano]

Project Runway's elimin-ee was very hard to watch last night.  I don't think I've ever seen a contestant on any reality show take their elimination quite so badly.  I worry for this person's mental health.

Yeah, that was quite a reaction.  However, I will say, even though it was sort of painful to watch, it was nice(?) to see a truly genuine, albeit heartbreaking, reaction.

On a related note... Since I happened to be walking around Lincoln Center during Fashion Week... And since I happened to spy two of the finalists walking around and posing for pictures on the Plaza, well... I guess that was sort of a spoiler for me.

[MBarnum]

BK, I hope you will enjoy the location shots on HIGHWAY PATROL.

The episode I watched the other day was filmed outside of (and inside of) a pharmacy on N. Bronson, and then the next scene was filmed at the Bronson Caves.

[JoseSPiano]

DR Cillaliz - As for that "not having pattern baldness dance" you may or may not have done yesterday... Were you referring to Callie or yourself?

[JoseSPiano]

DR George - Congrats on your new modem! -And congrats that the installation process was "pleasant" too.

I seriously think the judges made a mistake in their choice.  Two of the final three were predictably boring...one hasn't had an original idea all season that didn't look like last weekls dress.  And "granola" isn't going to look better in high heels!

bk - Sounds like you had another successful LACC event.  -Is there any chance that LACC archives these, your events via video, web or just audio?

[Druxy]

DR Druxy - Just in case: I never commented on "My Name Is Julia Ross" either.

Well, if the guilty party won't admit it, we'll just have to punish everybody.

What's you're preference?

100 push-ups or 20 laps.

 

It was DR Matt!  It was DR Matt!

Aha!  A stool pigeon!

 

[JoseSPiano]

For those DRs in NYC who may want to attend the staged reading of "Evening Primrose" on Monday, some tickets were released to TDF according to Jane Klain (from the Museum of Television and Radio) via the Sondheim listserv. The TDF tickets are (were?) going for $32, down from the "benefit" pricing of $275.

Nope - I've asked them to in the past, but they never do.

Didn't Jane JUST travel and not be with us for a WEEK?  Shall we just rename her Travelin' Jane?

DR Druxy - OH! Look what I found!

Last night, I watched quite a bad motion picture on the DVR entitled Dead of Winter. It’s really hard to believe that this piece of cheese was directed by the great Arthur Penn, but then I read that he replaced the original director, said original director also being the writer of the film. And the writing is the problem. It’s just dreadful and stupid beyond repair. The film seems to have been “inspired by” or is an unofficial remake of the wonderful Joseph H. Lewis film, My Name is Julia Ross. One character in Dead of Winter is called Julie Rose, and the lead character played by Jan Rubes is called Joseph Lewis. Mary Steenburgen can’t do anything with her poorly written character, and Roddy McDowell has been made to play so over the top that it’s embarrassing. In fact, the only thing that works about the film at all is its excellent musical score by Richard Einhorn – that is top-notch. The hi-def transfer looks like it was just a regular transfer turned into hi-def – in other words, it didn’t look too good.

That's from bk's NOTES back on July 3 of this year, BESERK.

[JoseSPiano]

Oh! And in regards to the changing release date of "Evening Primrose" - and this may have been posted here before, and if it has, I'm sorry for the redundancy - but Jane Klain of the Museum of Television and Radio, also posted this on the Sondheim listserv:

he official release date is Oct. 26.  The reason that the April 
release was postponed was that I found a pristine black and white 16mm 
print in the CBS vaults in March and E1 delayed the release date so 
that they could use that copy instead of the one at the Paley Center 
or Sondheim's copy.

They have done a handsome job of the packaging and there are wonderful 
bonus features.

Thank you, Jose.

The plot thickens....doesn't it BK?

 

[Druxy]

I think BK was trying to gaslight me.

 

[Jrand73]

I agree with DR RP about those who are/did show at Fashion Week.  But the eliminated contestant should have shown some color choices to the judges.....and maybe it is time for a "granny dress" - "hippie" - "patchouli" renaissance in women's styles.

Yes, Paula.....yes.................
