Over at theamazingracesucks.com i just read the most bizarre casting for UGLY BETTY.


spoiler space in case you don't want to know.

It says that Rebecca Romijn (sp?) is joining the cast.  That part is okay and i actually really like her (i loved her on her own show last year).  Anyhow it's the part that she'll be playing that makes no sense to me.

It's the part of the mystery woman (wrapped in bandages).  Now we've seen another actress play her for many weeks.  She has a specific voice. And isn't she MUCH older than rebecca (i assumed the character was 60+). This makes so little sense to me. Anybody else have any thoughts?

Scudda Ho, Scudda Hay...

Wasn't that a film about barnyard prostitutes?  Sort of a Refer Madness with livestock?

Whenever the cops would show up, the girls would climb into their henhouse and cry out "Nobody here but us chicks!"

The Masked Woman is currently played by Elizabeth Payne.  About which I know very little.

It does seem a very strange bit of gossip, Jennifer.  But digging around, there's some confirmation over at zap2it.com (http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-rebeccaromijnjoinsuglybetty,0,3609692.story?coll=zap-tv-headlines).

So....

Spoilerish...



















The mask has always suggested that the masked woman is undergoing "some" plastic surgery.  Make that oodles of plastic surgery.  Therefor, Rebecca could play the part.  Stranger things have been known to happen.  And it is just television.

At least she'll get to wear more fabulous clothes than she did in the X-Men films!

Now that I've had a couple cups of coffee, I'm ready to say:

Sunday morning greetings!  On the second day of my five-in-a-row off I'm planning to go grocery shopping, bake cinnamon pecan coffee cakes (1 for the family, 2 for a talent auction tomorrow), put up our Christmas tree.

Travel vibes for DR Elmore!  Is anyone else traveling today?

Thanks, DR DearReaderLaura, for the photos from last night's gathering.

Today, I want to watch that 1931 version of WATERLOO BRIDGE which I've never seen.

There are three more episodes of BONES on the first side of Disc 3 that I will watch today, too.

Since there are new episodes of BROTHERS & SISTERS, COLD CASE, WITHOUT A TRACE, and DEXTER's season finale tonight, it'll be a busy night of viewing/recording once 9 p.m. gets here.

Happiest of Birthday's to my dear friend and fellow HHW'er...DR MICHAEL PATRICK BARNUM.

Everyone should read his interview with actor Tony Russel in the latest issue of VideoLog...it seemed strange but unusually calming to hold a paper magazine in my hand after reading MANY things only online.

Some very revealing moments....only one of which I will quote:

While lying in bed with an actress rehearsing a love scene - she said to Tony:  I have slept with eleven producers and I have starred in eleven movies.

Congratulations, Bruce on the whole thing.   Having this all actually come about is quite an amazing thing, and i am very happy for you and very proud of you.

Hello to DR Laura nd DRMusicGuy too.

Hello to the ever charming Mr. Kevin Spirtas.

HI Ginny! Glad you are enjoying your days off. I am taking the week off between Christmas and New Years and can't wait.  

I did sleep late this morning.  Not quite sure what I'm going to get done today.  I wanted to do Christmas cards, but I seem to have lost my address book. I hope I find it. It's probably with my wristwatch, which I still haven't found. Although in the past month since I had it last I haven't been late to one thing...amazing

I went to a party last night at Barbara Bosson's house - remember her from LA LAW and Hill Street Blues? The house is quite spectacular, and of course we sang! First caroling of the season. how nice that was. Her little grandson awoke from his nap and toddled around greeting the folks. And a delicious little white poodle made the rounds. I had a swell time. Ran into a woman with whom I had a "falling out" twenty years ago - we had been very close, but we haven't spoken since... by the end of the evening we had exchanged emails and phone numbers. And time rolls on...

Now to chime in on THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X....my only complaint about this play is......that JRand56 was not there sitting next to me watching it....he would have been howling with laughter right along with me!

Now when I love, love, love something I do tend to gush about it a lot....and I have been sincerely gushing about this play to anyone who would listen (and even to some who weren't listening) but if I had spent the plane ticket to come down here and had only seen this play and then returned it would have been worth it! This play was like it was meant for me (and JRand56). The songs were wonderful fun and I am still humming some of them....the dance numbers were astounding and much, much more then I was expecting.....

Title: Re:SCUDDA HOO, SCUDDA HAY
Post by: MBarnum on December 10, 2006, 12:12:04 PM
...I will tell you what really makes this play so enjoyable...aside from the fact that the costumes and make-up are so very authentic to the period (which is always a sticking point for me, particularly if something is set in the 50s)...is that although this is a spoof of a particular genre of film and of the 50s it isn't a meanspirited spoof like you so often see and which are usually created by people who have no appreciating of the era....BK loves that era and he loves those movies...he can take those things and spoof them and joke about them but he doesn't insult them...and that is what makes this play so enjoyable....he celebrates the era and the old B movies, rather then treating them as if they were inferior to the modern day......
Title: Re:SCUDDA HOO, SCUDDA HAY
Post by: MBarnum on December 10, 2006, 12:14:55 PM
What also made this play was the excellent cast. I know BK says he has some things about it that he dislikes or isn't totally happy with, but from my point of view, and the point of view of those I say the play with (both nights), they all came of great...even the one who BK plans to have a little talk with...I personally thought he was quite good....

...but of course Mr. Cason Murphy as Zubrick steals the show and it is amazing that he is not yet a professional actor...he is someone that we will very soon be seeing on TV or film, mark my word...he is one heck of a talent!
Title: Re:SCUDDA HOO, SCUDDA HAY
Post by: bk on December 10, 2006, 12:17:17 PM
Our first review from reviewplays.com:

After weeks of anticipation, the world premiere of The Brain From Planet X finally made its appearance at the El Camino Theatre at Los Angeles City College, wreaking havoc and leaving dozens of bodies on the floor from people who succumbed to its laughter induced fits and knee jerk slaps.  

First written in the late 1980's by Bruce Kimmel (click here for our interview with Bruce), the collaborative effort with co-writer David Wechter has morphed into a science fiction musical that is very short on science, very long on fiction and wonderfully rich with music.  It's also a little raunchy, a little baudy, a lot sexy and a merciless spoof of the great bad sci-fi films of the '50's and the '60's.

From the opening number (The Brain from Planet X) sung by the narrator and the company to the closing Finale the almost non-stop music advances the plot that would have us believe that a gigantic brain has made an expedition to the earth of 1958 with the evil plan of taking over the world, because the inhabitants of Planet X are convinced the earthlings are "Stupid!".

The brain and its stooges, Yoni and Zubrick, have a "Will Bender" ray gun with which they hope to control the entire population. One zap and the person is in their control.  Their first stop is the heartland of the American landscape - The San Fernando Valley, and their first victims are Fred and Joyce, an amalgamation of Ozzie and Harriet, Lucy and Ricky, Jim and Margaret Anderson and every other TV cutesy couple of the era.

The U.S. Army gets involved vowing to destroy the brain, ignoring the pleas of Professor Leder who believes there is much to learn from the aliens.  With Army characters named General Mills and his aide Private Parts, you kind of know they won't be too successful. In spite of their bumbling, true to every great literary masterpiece, good triumphs over evil, although we won't tell you how.

We can say that the cast is absolutely great, even if they are so much over the top they almost float next to the little space ship that sometimes glides across the stage.  Kevin Spirtas put on his nerdy mantle to become inventor Fred, a model 1958 husband with his dutiful wife Joyce believably played by Lauren Rubin.  Merrill Grant nails the role of horny teen-age daughter Donna, who in turn is nailed by beat generation wanna-be poet Rod, played by Grady Williams, man.  Benjamin Clark is great as the Narrator who opens the show, later doubling as the Professor.  Michael Hausner and Efrèn Sanchez play the General and the Private and Egbert Bernard is assigned the role of Brain.  The guy has to schlep the massive glob over his head for the two hours plus - and even sings and dances with it.  If the Ovations had a category - Best Performance by a Brain - Egbert would walk off with it.

One of the Brain's stooges is Yoni, played by the architecturally endowed Alet Taylor.  Yoni discovers the pleasures of the flesh and proceeds to indulge at every possible chance with any man around.  She even out-"horny's" Donna, and those familiar the the hormonal drive of a teen-ager will appreciate her effort.  Her opposite number Zubrick is by far the best character in the play.  The gifted Cason Murphy takes complete ownership of the role, and creates a character that is chaotic, zany and often bumbling, but always fiercely loyal to the cause - even if he doesn't understand it.  Murphy's rubber face shows priceless expressions even when he brings up a member of the audience on stage for a little interactive shtick, discovering it's Dr. Steve Maradian, College President. Good thing Cason Murphy went into acting instead of crime; if the way he steals the show is any indication, imagine what a threat he could be to society.  

Aided by imaginative and fluid retro sets by Kevin Morrisey the production shimmers with "big time" touches and one would be hard pressed to realize that most of the cast and crew is made up of LACC Theatre Academy students. The five piece band (often sounding much bigger) is led by Richard Berent (on keyboards) and includes Shannon Ford on drums and percussion, Daniel Fabricani on bass, Matthew Smedal on keyboards and Kurt Festinger on reeds.  The orchestrations are by Larry Moore.  One of the highlights of the shows is the Brain Tap number, featuring the entire company singing and tap dancing; a tribute to the talents of choreographer Shari Jordan.
 
The chorus members include Alien Tappers, Eric Brown, Aundrèa Colfield,  Svetlana Kisiyan, Ksenia Litomisky, Masafumi Matsumoto, Chie Saito and Alfonso Toxqui.  Costuming of the period and the alien costumes are the creations of Terri Reh. Cricket S. Meyers designed the sound and Jim Moody is responsible for the moody lighting effects.  
 
The Brain From Planet X will convince you that there is no intelligent life in outer space - but it will provide the most fun you can have with your clothes on while trying to find it.

Post by: MBarnum on December 10, 2006, 12:17:41 PM
Alet is another one whose I am now a huge fan of...I will admit that I was not that crazy about her in WHAT IF?, but in THE BRAIN I loved her....and I swear she was channeling both Allison Hayes and Julie Newmar (JRand56, remember that photo of Allison with the tall, tall, hairdo from the Hypnotic Eye publicity photo...that is what Alet looked like in the first half of the play....in the second half she looked just like Allison in both THE UNDEAD and WOLF DOG).....AND SHE CAN SING! I loved her numbers so, so much!!!

And of course Benjamin Clark, who played the narrator and the old professor is from my old stomping grounds Ashland, Oregon. I nice guy and quite a talent. He was certainly a highlight....there were just so many wonderful performances that stand out...Pvt. Parts was hilarious, and he had not a single line! He would have done Jonathan Haze or Dick Miller proud! He did not mug or try to upstage anyone and yet he made such an impact on those I was at the play with...they loved him...and I am happy to say I had a chance to tell him so (I think his name is Efren Sanchez, but I dont' have the cast list in front of me).

Sorry I interrupted your Brain report there, DR MBarnum!  

Those '50s sci fi films came up in the audiobook I'm "reading" in my car, Bill Bryson's The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid.  He's telling the story of going with his mother to the movies in downtown Des Moines and lamenting that they never saw the really good shows.  I really cannot recommend this book highly enough to anyone who grew up in the '50s and '60s (or anyone who wishes they had!)

....and the BRAIN! Oh, the Brain itself is wonderful! I am in love with the brain. I have a huge crush on the Brain...it was hilarioius, and cute, and so much fun. the actor playing him had the perfect voice for the brain...and the way the actor made the brain move was perfection! It could not have been any better...I was laughing my socks off everytime the brain was on stage, and even now when I picture the brain I laugh!!!

Kevin Spirtas was also very good and most certainly looked the part of the stalwart 1950s hero/sit com type dad. Very Hugh Marlowe handsome, and a very nice guy to boot. I am now a fan and will be getting the DVD of his cabaret act upon my return to Salem.

I should have waited until BK posted that review...it says so much of what I was  trying to say in my 2000 posts! LOL!

And I will stop gushing, although I could go on, and I am honestly not brownnosing BK...those thoughts above that I posted are from the heart....I will miss seeing this play and if I lived here in LA I would be attending every single show (I am so sorry that I had to miss yesterdays matinee!).

Now the gushing stops and I return you to your regularly scheduled postings....

Oh, but first! My friend Diana Darrin is now a huge fan of BKs...she laughed so hard during that play that I was worried she would hurt herself...she was even whooping and hollering after each song. She was most certainly impressed.

Laurie Mitchell was also very, very impressed and just loved the production!!!

And judging from the reactions of people sitting around on both nights, the show was a hit!

Last night there was a group from NY that were so fun to watch because they were enjoying the show so much! And the first night there as a young 20 something gal sitting behind us that was having the time of her life!!!

And Laurie's neice Lori said that during intermission all the ladies in the ladie's room were going on and on about how much they were enjoying the play and how professional it was! It really was difficult to believe that so much of the cast were student...some danged talented ones!

BK, you done good!

Ok, I am going to skip the play in Encino that I was going to attend this afternoon as I just feel more like exploring more of Hollywood today.

DR Musicguy came by this morning and treated me to lunch at CAFE 101...which is so 50s!! I was loving it! and Musicguy (Lyn) is such a fascinating person! I didn't realize he had lived in Hollywood during the 60s and 70s as a young man...and oh the stories! I was having the time of my life! Thanks Musicguy...and DR Kerry, I am so disappionted not to have gotten to meet you  >:(   but thanks Musicguy for the wonderful motor tour of various places...including the Brady Bunch house!!!!

I watched three BONES episodes to begin my afternoon viewing.

The first involved two ongoing cases: the crash of a private plane and identification of those bodies but more interesting were the bones that the plane landed on which weren't a part of the passengers. That involves an entirely different murder which must be solved.
Title: Re:SCUDDA HOO, SCUDDA HAY
Post by: Matt H. on December 10, 2006, 01:27:03 PM
The second BONES episode was one of my favorites of the first season. Guest starring one of my favorite actors Adam Baldwin who plays an FBI cohort of Booth's, Temperance finds herself on a gangland hit list for identfying bones obviously belonging to a man who was hit by the Mafia. Very tense and surprising episode.
Title: Re:SCUDDA HOO, SCUDDA HAY
Post by: Matt H. on December 10, 2006, 01:28:49 PM
The third episode owed its inspiration to the movie NATIONAL TREASURE, a treasure hunt in the tunnels underneath DC to unearth valuables buried there during the Civil War. Not one of the better or more inspired episodes of the first season, but there was a fair amount of humor to compensate.

Post by: Matt H. on December 10, 2006, 01:30:53 PM
Then, I watched the first hour of the 1931 WATERLOO BRIDGE. Instead of Vivian Leigh in the 1940 version, we get Mae Clark playing the prostitute. Bette Davis has a small role as the leading man's concerned sister, and the whole show is directed by the legendary James Whale. It's a fairly early talkie, so the sound recording is hissy and tinny, but I'm finiding this "alternate" version of the story very interesting to watch.

Must head off to work.

Must heat up that leg tonight.

Must get garlic!!!

Yum!
I'm back from work, my leg is in the oven, and all is well in the world!

Lots of garlic and rosemary inserted in slits throughout the leg of lamb.  The leg should take two and a half, up to three hours to roast.

Meanwhile, I'll be heating up the second oven (nice to have two) in a bit to roast the veg - red bliss taters, anise, red onion, carrots, all to be drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with parsley and grated parmesan.

Oh, yes, very yum!

I went to a party last night at Barbara Bosson's house - remember her from LA LAW and Hill Street Blues? The house is quite spectacular, and of course we sang! First caroling of the season. how nice that was. Her little grandson awoke from his nap and toddled around greeting the folks. And a delicious little white poodle made the rounds. I had a swell time. Ran into a woman with whom I had a "falling out" twenty years ago - we had been very close, but we haven't spoken since... by the end of the evening we had exchanged emails and phone numbers. And time rolls on...

I was just thinking of Ms. Bosson a couple days ago. So odd!

Glad I checked on my leg early, because the internal temp was already where it should be for medium rare - the way we like it.  It's resting now.

Meanwhile, I've got my veg roasting.  Dang, but I thought I had carrots on hand, and I don't!  But we've got plenty of taters, and the onion, and I've never roasted anise before (also known as fennel), but I'm sure looking forward to giving it a try.

I can smell the anise on my hands!  I'm getting hongry!!!   :D :D :D

It always just seems to work out that way with Egyptian pop singers. Go figure.

BK, pics look great.  Alet looks yummy!  My only question...does the cast really need those distracting mics sloping around their jaws and chins.  God, do I hate to see this practice becomes standard.  Part of being an actor and a singer is being able to hit the back wall.  I can understand a few strategically placed mics around the stage, but I detest visible body mics.  Tell me, when you were doing your musicals on that same stage years ago did you need those kind of mics?

The person next to me is my long time friend Julie Amato. I actually made my television debut on her TV series in Canada. It was a musical variety series. My debut consisted of her sing a song to me, "I Love You Because You're Trash" written by Cliff Jones who also wrote ROCKABYE HAMLET. And to my amazement she remembered the lyrics.
I bought her the DVD of Kevin Spirtas Concert Show so she will get hers in a few days.

And you are one of the few men I know who look good in tights!

Pogue, I'd originally asked for the small wig mics, but they showed up with these things and it was too late to change.  I hate them.  Back in 1968 when we did How To Succeed, I became the first person to ever wear a body mic on the LACC stage - prior to that it was just some foot mics.  I contracted pleuresy during rehearsals - I was wrapped in some sort of chest girdle, and I could barely breathe without pain, so they miked me to make it easier on me.

I'm home and have been for about an hour or so.  The show went very well, except that the top level of the set (it's only about 4 feet off the ground with one level below it) broke at some point during the first act and now there's a foot-sized hole in it!  Fortunately, the word got out and the big running cross-over that happens over that level was able to be rerouted to the next lower level.  No one got hurt and since our next performance isn't until Friday, the set fixers have a lot of time to fix the set. :)

After today's sold out performance (the word's getting out!), I had lunch at Quiznos (I had a coupon for $2 off!) and then came home, which is where I am now.

Good morning, all!  I need to check the weather in NYC before I leave today: that will dtermine how much goes into the suitcase and what I wear.  

I am essentially all packed now and raring to go.  My hostshave other commitments today, so I'd like to be out of their way ASAP.

Here's a photo of our Christmas tree.  Yeah, I know, it's dated 2004.  It's artificial, so it's the same tree this year, and we're so tradition-bound here that it looks almost exactly the same.  Maybe a few new ornaments this year, but that's about it.

Newspaper montage person, Aundrea.

When I did Gypsy 10 years ago or so, I was one of the two placard changers.  I also played a couple of other characters in the show, but the main thing is that I and Alice would do a different bit in a different costume that fit with each scene, each time we had to change the placards.  The audiences really enjoyed us. ;)

Yes, indeed, football did indeed run late. As a result, though I recorded COLD CASE and WITHOUT A TRACE, their uncertain hours made it impossible for me to watch them this evening. In fact, I only watched one network TV show this evening. Everything else was DVDs and DVR.

She said she spent the entire movie wanting to play the lead, and she could have!

Next, I put in THE ROBE and watched it. Hadn't seen it in awhile, and it was good to reconnect with it again. Fox didn't go to any great lengths with the transfer. It's a pretty dirty print they've used though the Technicolor is vibrant.

Now I know why I don't go to E-Bay very often.  The first time back in over a year, and I win the first item I bid.

I am now the owner of a 1962 LP of the movie soundtrack of GYPSY, which I already own.  However, this copy is autographed on the back by Rosalind Russell, Karl Malden, and Natalie Wood.   I would not have bid on it, except I trust the Seller.

Got so engrossed in the story of the robe that I put in DEMETRIUS AND THE GLADIATORS as soon as THE ROBE finished. Only got about 15 minutes in, but it was a better looking print of it than THE ROBE was. I was surprised that it, too, was in TEchnicolor. I thought Fox would have switched totally over to DeLuxe Color by then. I guess not.

Yes, I am home!  Finaly.  The flight was uneventful but the ordeal with transportation at JFK was no fun at all.  On the flight I read and completed HOW TO WRITE A DIRTY BOOK, which I enjoyed quite a bit, especially "Adventures With My Father."


DR Cason!  Darlin', welcome!  Tell your Ma to get her ass on board now.  She is one of the best, and since she's been a lurker for some time, we need her on the posting side of things.

BK, I loved the photos.  I'm already missing everyone on the show and depressed to be away from the Brain and its players.  The photos and the rave review only sadden me.

DR AdrianaPatti, did you get my message?

DR JRand56, I second DR MBarnum's wish that you were there.  The first time Alet walked onstage with that Dairy Queen hairdo, I wanted you to be there to fully appreciate its Allison Hayes connection.  Speaking of La Hayes, my hosts live not far from Allison's home.  Isn't that right, DR MBarnum?

I've got to unpack, get to bed and gird my loins for a trek to Toyland in the morning.

Anyway he says he is going to try again next friday, but that still does not make up for his not going opening night when he had nothing to do but sit around at home.

Holy cow! Rad is an actor from the 50s (JOYRIDE, MARJORIE MORNINGSTAR) who I have been wanting to find for an interview...well it turns out that Diana's friend Kathy knows Rad Fulton and she brought him to the meet me! Wasn't that great!!!
