Yes, I'm really enjoying them, much to my surprise. Got your IM, will keep you posted.

Took the kids to a restaurant for dinner, then to Office Depot for a big box o' paper and then to Border's for various and sundried items, and they behaved beautifully. I'm wondering exactly whose kids these are, and where mine have gone.

I loved Charles MacArthur's JOHNNY ON A SPOT, a very cynical comedy set in a southern governor's mansion on election day around 1942 and the attempts of the governor's secretary and PR man to keep the voters unaware that the alcoholic governor who's just been elected to the senate was just found dead in in the local whorehouse. The play is filled with cynical hustlers and political advisors, corrupt cops, a horny southern belle, the whorehouse's madam posing as a nurse over the corpse, venal politicians, and graft. It all seems quite timely as well as reminiscent of Huey long and ALL THE KING'S MEN. I laughed myself silly at a farce that predated Joe Orton for completely unsympathetic characters. DRs JRand58 and TCB and BK would love playing this outrageous comedy. The production was wonderful and the cast was excellent. My friend Laura played the horny southern belle and Margery Beddows, who was Gewn Verdon's standby in REDHEAD, was a blowsy Rubenesque madam. It was truly wonderful.

In the photo my friend Laura;s on the right end.

Larry - Margery is the director of Milla's cabaret act, the one that is preserved on the Kritzerland Milla Ilieva CD.

Had an enjoyable evening of viewing. I began by watching the last six episodes of THE CULT OF CARTMAN (SOUTH PARK). All were enjoyably amusing, but like anything else like this, you can overdose on a character in a set like this. He's certainly the funniest member of the SOUTH PARK troupe, but there's a reason he isn't featured in every single episode. It's too much of a good thing to always have the spotlight on him.

The various HORATIO HORNBLOWER miniseries are my best friend John's favorite miniseries ever. Over the years, I've given him every one of those for either birthdays or Christmas.

Next, I skimmed through today's AS THE WORLD TURNS. Luke and Noah were not there much to my surprise, and they weren't featured in the previews for next week either.

Is she the one we saw in The Horrible and Tragic Life of the Singing Nun?

Next I watched tonight's GHOST WHISPERER. I was very disappointed in much of Jamie Kennedy's performance. He guest starred on some series I reviewed recently (CSI: NY?) and gave a very good performance, but he was very unfocused and bland tonight, and now he's going to be a regular!

The show was just OK tonight, not a great season premiere.

Matt H. · « **Reply #385 on:** October 03, 2008, 08:42:58 PM »

And I concluded my evening watching tonight's episode of LIFE. It's such a breezy, enjoyable show. Not a greatg mystery tonight, but the interplay between the characters keeps things entertaining even when the story isn't first rate.

We think that it was beautifully cast... It came along just after we finished the Sharpe series
