TODAY IN THEATRE HISTORY...

Forty years ago tonight, DEAR WORLD opened at the Mark Hellinger.

I just noticed that the show had 45 preview performances--wasn't that a rather long period for a show at that time?  I knew that there was trouble but I never realized it lasted that long a time.

DR JRand, thanks for the recording of Inner City. But most of all, thanks so much for sending it electronically, album notes and cover art included!  I'll be checking it out later today. 

Needless to say, besides a few various podcasts, this will be what is playing on my computer today.

Yes, for that time it was a very long preview period. I have a friend who was a dancer in the show and he said it was a tumultous experience. It changed drastically from conception to opening.

So, today I will be starting on FRIDAY THE 13th - THE SERIES, Season 2. Looking over the contents of the episodes, I don't recognize any of the stories. (I watched the show off and on during the years it ran in syndication.) So, it should be fun watching these.

DR MattH re: the Grey's/ Private Practice cross-over.

Even though they implied it would be last night IT WAS NOT.  I don't watch Grey's but ff and there was only one call. And on Private Practice there was the same call.

The real cross-over will apparently be NEXT week. And it looks like much of Grey's Anatomy will feature addison.  Since they will be in Seattle i'm not sure exactly how that will work. The promo sort of made it seem like the 2 hours might just continue the story.  But i sort of suspect that Grey's Anatomy will have its regular storyline and then the addison storyline. And then Private Practice will either just continue there and have them go home. Or else addison's scenes will just be in seattle.

I won't say that Private Practice is my favorite show. But it's been pretty decent this year. The cast is excellent.

Well, I knew next week would be the major crossover between GREY'S/PRACTICE because it's featured on the cover of next week's TV GUIDE. I may HAVE to break down next week and record PRACTICE, but I'll decide then what I'm going to do. It might depend on how much of the story is left to tell.

I love all of the cast members of PRIVATE PRACTICE. They're all exceptionally talented and charismatic performers. But last season, with everyone so mopey about wanting love and needing love and the frustrations about that, it got old FAST. There weren't nearly enough patient story plots to suit me, and when everyone in a cast is jumping into bed with each other, there's nowhere to go unless you bring in more new staff for them to switch over to them. No thanks.

speaking individually i really could not when they were all speaking at the same

much would understand anyways. But they were all talking over each other!
I'm curious what will happen with the six. And how/if they will attempt to go back.

I'll likely choose BURN NOTICE to watch while I eat lunch today. Of the shows on the DVR, it's my favorite though THE OFFICE and SUPERNATURAL are right up there. With so many episodes of FRIDAY THE 13th to get through this weekend, I doubt I'll get much else watched today and tonight (except I will record GHOST WHISPERER and watch it around 10.)

No thanks.

I actually thought (because of the promos) that the only cross-over was this week.

I'd say record Private Practice and then do what you said and see how much of the story is left. Like i said the promos are sort of vague. But they make it seem like the 2 hours could be extremly connected (like the first hour might just continue). Although i can't see Private Practice focusing totally on addison. So we shall see. i'm gonna record Grey's next week and just ff thru the parts that don't feature addison.

If the purpose is to get Grey's viewers to watch Private Practice then i would think they would have to spend some time showing the Private Practice characters (other than addison). But it would be sort of weird for them to do that during the first Grey's hour. I guess we'll see next week.

It's funny we have the opposite problem (you watch the first show and i watch the second).

Well, remember that Ben has lost his daughter and may actually want Aaron as a replacement. Of course, Aaron must go back with the rest of the 6, but Ben is known for having MANY ulterior motives.

The previews show Addison hearing that Derek was going to propose to Meredith.  And when Meredith came home last night the whole bed was cleared off of rose petals except the one she found. (Which in Meredith's mind could easily go to Derek being with someone else, but that's just a guess)  I can see the vast majority of the episode being the romantic triangle while doing brain surgery. And it wasn't just Addison who went to Seattle Grace from Private Practice.   

BTW, there were no ghosts last night

Media Check:

In honor of Kritzerland's Mystery Soundtrack Release™, I'm playing the previous Kritzerland Michel Colombier release, which I love.  But Michel has been a favorite of mine since I was a very young child and Wings was released.

I have finished up my reviewing duties with the BD of Rent: Filmed Live on Broadway (loved it), and am awaiting a new pile of review discs which will probably arrive today.  I am supposed to be reviewing Goodbye, Mr. Chips, but alas DVDTalk hasn't gotten it in yet.  I will be patient for a little while longer before I break down and buy it myself.  ;)
