I like  Helen Mirren in most everything she does....but a particular obscure favorite is her turn as Ayn Rand in a tv movie The Passion of Ayn Rand.

She plays the title character having an affair with a young writer Nathanial Branden based on an interesting book by Barbara Branden, his wife.  It was published shortly after Rand's death....and it was not flattering to anybody.

The writing on Route 66 got pretty bad in Season Three.

George Maharis had missed many episodes of Season Two - being sick and all - so a lot of times Tod would just call him on the phone and ask how he was doing....we didn't see Buz or hear his voice.

Maharis returned at the beginning of Season Three - but was only around for a few episodes....sick again.

Glen Corbett was eventually hired on as the new co-star and Maharis was never mentioned again.
Title: Re: RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN'S NOTES
Post by: Jrand74 on January 14, 2025, 04:30:27 AM
It didn't work and I think the writing is mostly to blame....and the series was gone after Season Four.

I keep thinking of young actors of the time who might have been able to make it work...and I'm thinking Gary Conway or Rad Fulton would have been good.
Title: Re: RODGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN'S NOTES
Post by: Jrand74 on January 14, 2025, 04:33:28 AM
Later Maharis said that he wasn't sick - he just thought he was being overworked and he didn't like the writers or the directors....so he doubled the work on Martin Milner...and all of the rest of the crew who had to keep going.

The producers gave his character echovirus.....most commonly spread through contact with fecal matter.....which tells us what the producers thought of Maharis and his antics.

I received a text last night from my Discover Card provider asking about a transaction they had denied in or to Mediapolis.  I said no I had not made it.....

So I had to call and cancel the card and a new one is on the way....in 14 days.

The only time I had used my card was in the Bradford Exchange mix up from last week.  I think it is more than a coincidence that one week after I canceled my membership in that shady company that my card was compromised.

Avoid Bradford Exchange.

Rodzinski, Wikipedia says this about Peter Allen's involvement in co-writing "Arthur's Theme"

"The line in the chorus 'When you get caught between the moon and New York City' was taken from an unreleased song written by [Peter] Allen and [Carole] Bayer Sager.  Allen came up with the line while his plane was in a holding pattern during a night arrival at John F. Kennedy International Airport."

BK - Yes, more of the lyrics features like your excellent ones in today's Notes.  It's even needed to remind people that parody is not just for a select few lyricists.

Warning:  Pointed kvetching in the next few paragraphs!
:)

It's starting to feel like Randy Rainbow and Forbidden Broadway are "owning" the theater-music parody world these days, and the rest of us are in many ways getting told why bother! 

I was routinely getting YouTube comments like "Forbidden Broadway already parodied that song, why would you do a video to that tune?"  Or "Randy Rainbow does the greatest Trump videos, why are you trying to compete with him by doing a Trump video?" 

Last year in February 2024, some very persistent theater attorney was taking direct aim at trying to cancel my parody lyrics in the Times comments, lyrics which the Times had not only allowed but actively encouraged uninterrupted for over 14 years - and the attempt to cancel those lyrics happened literally three days before Forbidden Broadway announced its then-intended Broadway production.  This theater lawyer even wrote me very convincing-looking emails under the name of an actual New York Times editor, except that it made no sense that any actual  New York Times editor would be sending emails that looked like legal arguments!)

BK - Yes, more of the lyrics features like your excellent ones in today's Notes.  It's even needed to remind people that parody is not just for a select few lyricists.

Warning:  Pointed kvetching in the next few paragraphs!
:)

It's starting to feel like Randy Rainbow and Forbidden Broadway are "owning" the theater-music parody world these days, and the rest of us are in many ways getting told why bother! 

I was routinely getting YouTube comments like "Forbidden Broadway already parodied that song, why would you do a video to that tune?"  Or "Randy Rainbow does the greatest Trump videos, why are you trying to compete with him by doing a Trump video?" 

Last year in February 2024, some very persistent theater attorney was taking direct aim at trying to cancel my parody lyrics in the Times comments, lyrics which the Times had not only allowed but actively encouraged uninterrupted for over 14 years - and the attempt to cancel those lyrics happened literally three days before Forbidden Broadway announced its then-intended Broadway production.  This theater lawyer even wrote me very convincing-looking emails under the name of an actual New York Times editor, except that it made no sense that any actual  New York Times editor would be sending emails that looked like legal arguments!)

Freddie, I have always enjoyed reading your parody lyrics in the comments.
I have missed them!

I have somewhere an LP I found that is the cast album of the staged reading of Whispers on the Wind, book and lyrics by John B. Kuntz, music by Lor Crane, featuring Nancy Dussault, Karen Morrow and David Cryer.

I recall it being kinda good.

I was reminded of this when someone mentioned Dussault.

That's great, John, but which is your least favorite food on the planet?  Inquiring minds want to know!
