Not so much a question as a suggestion:

BK, while you are in the editing room, why not make a scene sampler (or an actual commercial) to send out to theatre groups to entice them into doing DECEIT?

Is there a 60s flop play that you think should be given a second chance?

Thanks for the birthday wishes.  How fitting that my birthday is on the same day as THE AMAZING RACE.  But I will have to tape it, since i'm going to my favorite restaurant (with cake, for DR Laura)!

Made it to the office. Secretaries are both out sick, temp is here (she's a regular temp if that makes any sense - knows how we do things) and the other lawyer fessed up that none of that needs to be done until next week.  All is right with the world

Good morning!

Rain is in the forecast for today, but when I got up to get the newspaper, it couldn't have been more beautiful outside. However, in the past half hour, clouds have moved in, and it does indeed look ;ike we're in for a drenching.

It's OK. I've exercised already and will be sitting inside watching things recorded last night and (hopefully) one of the musicals from the Warner/MGM musical box before the day is through.

The phone lines for IDOL last night were really funny. Katharine's line was the only one not consistently busy during the three different times I called all the numbers. Paris didn't have the busy signals that she's had the last few weeks, and since she was in the bottom three last week WITH busy signals on the exchange here, I'm thinking she may be the one in the most trouble tonight.

Looking forward to seeing last night's VERONICA MARS especially. I also recorded the CSI: MIAMI rerun since from the description on the cable guide, I didn't remember much about the episode.

I've been going back and forth in my mind about which musical from the Warner/MGM box I'm going to watch first. I've narrowed it down to SUMMER STOCK and IT'S ALWAYS FAIR WEATHER. I've seen both on remastered laserdiscs within the last few months, but I'm probably leaning toward FAIR WEATHER since it is in 2.55:1 Cinemascope and should look wonderful in an anamorphic transfer. I understand that the two outtakes which were on the laserdisc - Michael Kidd's "Jack and the Space Giants" and the Kelly-Charisse duet "Love Is Nothing but a Racket" - have been carried over to the DVD. Wise decision.

MattH, Regarding MEDIUM, yes it has galled me for the last 6-7 episodes now, that no matter how many times she has saved lives, bailed the District Attorney —who I like to call Señor Exposition since he speaks almost entirely in expository fashion—out, they still doubt her all the time. At what point wouldn't they just be like, "Okay Allison, whatever you say. Sounds crazy, but let's check it out." Even her husband still doubts her.

Last night's "Idol":

I think the judges were dead-on correct in their assessments of the performances.

They've been told time and again that they should never pick a song sung by a power vocalist like Celine Dion or Whitney Houston if they aren't going to bring a new twist on the song.  Katharine suffered by comparison with every note...it does not matter how well anyone thought she sang it.  

Paris had a really good thing going with her rendition of "The Way We Were" -- I remember thinking she might just pull off the performance of the night because she had this Gladys Knight-sounding rendition going on....and then she totally messed it up.  Sang some unintelligble lyrics.  Showing off and falling way short.

Taylor.  Gimme a break.  He'll never get what he deserves, and that's a bottom-three appearance.  His rabid fans will carry him to the final two, IMO, but he should have gone weeks ago.

Kellie -- go home, chile!  Go home!  Still, I fear Paris will go before Kellie because Kellie, too, has this enormous fan base that forgives way too much.  I think she mangled some lyrics...again.  And there was a phrasing glitch at the end that was nearly like what she did last week.

Chris -- not bad at all.  I'm still tired of his shouting tendencies when he sings, but it was "good"...very, very good.

Elliot -- I'm with Randy...the arrangement was terrible, but Elliot proved himself the most vocally talented contestant...EVER.  I was nearly as moved as Paula was.  Actually, the song was brilliant up to the point where he removed the microphone from the stand.  At that point, I wondered how much better it could get.  But it didn't get there because the arrangement didn't go there.  Doesn't matter.  It was "da bomb"!

Going home tonight:  Paris.

Bottom three:  Paris, Kellie, Katharine.

My (first) question for ASK BK day:

Is the CD of Ronald Stein's DJ movie scores still being considered?

Since I put it together two years ago, I'd say chances are slim.

Yes - Peter Barnes' Time of the Barracudas, which, to my knowledge, only played a couple of out-of-town engagements before folding.  A wonderful black comedy that starred Elaine Stritch and Laurence Harvey.  It went through a change of directors, and they closed it because Miss Stritch was out of control (I reminded her of the play when I worked with her, and it jogged her memory and she eventually put it in her one-woman show).
