I liked The Joker's Wild, hosted by Jack Barry. When he died suddenly in 1984, Bill Cullen took over.

Also The $10,000 Pyramid (before it was adjusted for inflation), hosted by Dick Clark originally, and later by Bill Cullen as well. (He really got around!)

And Password, with Allen Ludden, of course.

Post by: Druxy on March 30, 2015, 05:23:55 AM: KINDLE COUNTDOWN DEAL!

CHARLA, my screenplay inspired by the life (and my relationship with) actress Charla Doherty, begins a one-week Kindle Countdown Deal later today.

In other words, if you act quickly, you can download a copy of the screenplay for as little as 99 cents. Over the week, the cost goes up in increments until it reaches the regular retail price of $5.00.

Post by: Druxy on March 30, 2015, 05:30:03 AM: We watched the movie version of INTO THE WOODS last night.

Question: I've never seen it on stage, and I'm wondering how close (scriptwise) the film follows the stage production. Although I enjoyed the movie and got what they were trying to do, the 3rd act seemed a bit convoluted.

Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jrand74 on March 30, 2015, 08:20:20 AM: TOD:

I never met a game show I didn't like.....they were everywhere when I was growing up.....in the mornings, afternoons, and prime time.

In the summer, I would watch Concentration and Password during the day. There may have been one or two others.....I seem to remember Dennis James doing some kind of show....or maybe he was on Concentration.

Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune are still going strong.

My favorite Prime Time Game Shows were: Beat the Clock, To Tell the Truth, I've Got a Secret, and What's My Line.

To Tell the Truth had the biggest turnover on the panel, you never knew who you were going to get....my favorites were Kitty Carlisle, Polly Bergen, and Peggy Cass. Tom Poston and Orson Bean were big pills and I hated having to endure their presence among the sparkling ladies.

I've Got a Secret had a more regular panel: Betsy Palmer, Bess Myerson, Henry Morgan, and Bill Cullen - all of whom were terrific! Gary Moore was always smoking.

The kingpin and flagship for me was What's My Line on Sunday night, which we watched after Candid Camera. That panel was top of the line.....Bennett, Dorothy, Arlene, and whoever they could drag in....I liked everyone except Tony Randall who was also a big pill (although not as bad as he was when he did the Hollywood Squares). And John Daly was the perfect moderator.....in a tuxedo.....
Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jrand74 on March 30, 2015, 08:23:53 AM: My favorite TTTT moment is not on YouTube that I can find. The three contestants all claimed to be a famous hairstylist. Polly Bergen put on her glasses - which always made me laugh. She asked each one of them if he shampooed the hair before he set a pincurl....and the answers were each more incredible than the one before.....she just looked at them making an hilarious face.....

When voting time came, Bud called on her....and she said: "I don't want to vote for any of them, I don't think a one of them ever had his hands in a woman's hair in his life!"
Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jrand74 on March 30, 2015, 08:26:19 AM: Polly also asked three contestants claiming to be a composer: "What is your ASCAP rating?" Two of them didn't know, and one of them said: "Somewhere between you and Irving Berlin....."

She voted for him, and she was right.

In the terrible syndicated version of To Tell the Truth...I think Larry Blyden was the host.....anyway....

Veronica Lake had published her autobiography - and she was on the show. Two other blonde women pretended to be her. Poor Veronica looked so bad....I guess a couple of the panelists recognized her....but another woman got two votes.

One of Jen's brilliant ideas was to ask people to bring a book instead of a card and inscribe it to Baby J. His library is off to a great start!

That's a great idea, Ginny! My favorite children's books were (and still are) "Frederick (http://www.amazon.com/Frederick-Leo-Lionni/dp/0394826140/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1427743230&sr=8-1&keywords=lionni+Frederick)" and "Swimmy (http://www.amazon.com/Swimmy-Leo-Lionni/dp/0394826205/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_y)," both by Leo Lionni. :)

The internet service tech crew just left Toyland afdter replacing a bad cable. We have internet again, and i can hopefully accomplish a few things in the next week. Now I'm off to proofread part of the Duck Finale.

Why are you moving?

After looking at homes for sale in town this morning I am wondering that myself ;D
Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jane on March 30, 2015, 02:20:32 PM: When we moved here we said we would experience country living for 10 years and then move into town. Between the economy and or renovations we have been here 7 years longer than expected.

The house is almost perfect. As beautiful as the grounds are it is time to have a small garden. So what house was Keith most interested in today, the one with the most land and way too much work needed everywhere.

Why are you the most moving person I've ever met?

Except for our first home in Reseda and this house we moved because Keith either took a new job or was relocated by the company he worked for.

We did not want to leave our last home in Tiburon, however, in order to stay Keith could not have retired. I lost my views of the Golden Gate Bridge and gained mountain views and Keith home all the time. Not a bad deal at all.

Why aren't you moving back to your home town?

Cost of living. I admit, we are spoiled. Our home is worth a fraction of the cost for the same home almost anywhere back in our home town, without any land. The areas we would consider, if price were not an option, are still a good distance to drive.

Post by: Jane on March 30, 2015, 02:41:21 PM: After looking at the homes in town, most of which had too many stairs just to get into the house, we will be checking out a few areas in Washington. We could live on a lake or along the river. Granted they aren't as pretty as the Pacific Ocean coast line, but then they are affordable.

Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jane on March 30, 2015, 02:48:24 PM: We looked at a Craftsman style home today that was all custom woodwork with wonderful little touches throughout. The quality was excellent and we enjoyed our tour. We aren't planning to buy it. For one, it has a detached garage. After living having 2 homes on the east coast with detached garages I said never again. Carries items to and from the car in the ice is dangerous, plus it is cold and wet for half the year. This detached garage was poorly designed with multiple steps to go in and out. They could have made a gradual slope instead.

Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jane on March 30, 2015, 02:49:41 PM: The house Keith was most interested overlooked the creek in the park. When we first moved here we kept telling our realtor we wanted to live there. Unfortunately there weren't any homes for sale.
Title: Re: LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE TO TELL THE TRUTH
Post by: Jane on March 30, 2015, 02:51:25 PM: Another home we liked, on a street we have always wanted to live on, had tons of steps just to enter the house. The driveway into the garage was a very odd angle. I'm not sure I could park my own car there, or ever get out.

Without that allure....she was a fairly ordinary looking woman.

When I went blond in high school I wore banks over one eye and adults were always telling me I looked like Veronica Lake.

I found that to be an improvement over being told I looked like Mona Lisa because of my smile. I was not happy the first time I saw what Mona Lisa looked like ;D

Post by: ChasSmith on March 30, 2015, 05:45:07 PM: Well, ladies and germs, this afternoon I finally got the lead out and set up my Medicare supplemental insurance and prescription plan. I'll be paying a little more than I'd like, but it's really the addition of the damned drug plan that makes it feel over the top. But as of April Fool's Day, I've once again got total coverage, as opposed to just the basic Medicare.

I know people who don't bother with supplemental, but I already got burned with my little five-minute ear infection visit last month, and I'm the type who'd rather pay a steady, predictable amount every month than face the unknown every time I sneeze and go to the doctor.

We have it and it does seem to make a difference. The problem is, it doesn't cover anything that medicare doesn't cover.

Cute tune and I'm having fun with the lyrics, and then she'll get to pretend to dance next to Fred Astaire and tap next to Gene Kelly - Sami was dying to be able to tap and this was what I came up with - it will become a fantasy number, will give us a change of costume and be fun, I think.
