Neither Agnes Moorehead nor ELizabeth Montgomery ever won an Emmy for BEWITCHED (a criminal offense if you ask me).

Alice Pearce and Marion Lorne did win, and, of course, William Asher, Montgomery's husband at the time, won for directing the show.

Well, it heated up very quickly this morning, so I was able to mow the grass, and it wasn't the least bit wet even after the rain we had this morning. Glad to have that chore behind me for another 10 days or so.

Dakota - Could the employees have ejected the man without potentially endangering themselves physically?

I began my afternoon viewing with NANCY DREW AND THE HIDDEN STAIRCASE. This movie, adapted from the second book in the series, is probably the most faithful to the original source of any of the four NANCY DREW movies. (#1 was based on PASSWORD TO LARKSPUR LANE; I don't think #2 and #3 were based on the books).

In fact, the only things that didn't ring true was Nancy being scared of a frog and being dependent on her boy friend to do the dirty work like firing a gun, etc. The Nancy of the books would have no trouble doing that. And the Ned of the books (called Ted in the movies) wasn't such a bumbler, either.

Oh, it was only one employee on duty. But could he or she have handled the man had the man turned violent?

Next, I open the MURDER SHE WROTE Season five boxed set, and watched the first three episodes. The season premiere again featured Len Cariou as MI-5 agent Michael Haggerty, and Jessica, caught at the scene of a murder, is thrown in jail where Michael has he framed so she'll stay locked up and safe from danger while he investigates. The ever-gorgeous Maxwell Caulfield was a primary guest star, and also on board were Hichael Horton, Michael Callen, and Leslie Easterbrook.

Matt H. · « **Reply #221 on:** June 24, 2007, 01:23:51 PM »

The second episode introduced Keith Michell as glamorous jewel thief Dennis Stanton. (He would star in several MURDER SHE WROTE episodes in Season 6 when Angela demanded some time off.)

Matt H. · « **Reply #222 on:** June 24, 2007, 01:25:33 PM »

And the third episode featured Henry Jones playing a man murdered and then discovered by two sisters and buried in their flower garden. Teresa Wright played one of the sisters. This episode introduced Ron Masak as new town sheriff Mort Metzger after Tom Bosley left the cast.

On this first disc is also a documentary on the show which I'll watch when I go back down.

I dont think so... But the experience left a rather icky taste in my mouth

We've all had experiences like that, I guess.

Just rustled up a mess of spahetti, which was very good. I'm having a marvelously marvelous bout of relaxation, watching a big ham and cheese on rye film entitled Land Of The Pharohs.

Just waiting for someone to pick up some CDs. They never get here when they tell you they're getting here, and I'm worried I won't hear them if I go back to the movie.

I'm not sure what all they mean by this, but on the NYMF website --
http://www.nymf.org/Page-101.html -- some Qand A section which you may have already seen, so stop here if you have -- it said "under certain circumstances, we will provide fiscal sponsorship enabling donors to make fully tax-deductible donations to support your production. This requires case-by-case discussion and an additional agreement between NYMF and your producing company."

Of course, it didn't specify what the "certain circumstances" are nor what the "additional agreement" entails (probably something like giving them your first born and all rights to actual and imagined future earnings) ... but it might be something to ask them about on Monday cause tax-deductible is a word that might make some potential donors sit up and take notice...
