Next, I watched TEA FOR TWO from the Doris Day box. It looked better than I was expecting. Gene Nelson should have been a much bigger star. If he had been at MGM, I'm thinking he might have had some movies built around his great dancing abilities, though, of course, they did have Kelly and Astaire already.

At least they did let him use his own singing voice in this film unlike some of his other Warner musicals.

Then we watched "Glee"...

So how many months do we have to wait until the series starts up in the fall?

*And it was nice to see that Matthew Morrison's chest hair grew back in so fast after he left South Pacific.

*I also really liked the underscoring during "Glee". Debussy's "Golliwog's Cakewalk" always makes me smile.

NCIS had a kind of disappointing season finale. Just a continuation of Tony's killing of the Mussad agent and a silly cliffhanger with Ziva at the end. Bah!

And then I just happened to make it home in time to see who won "DWTS". And I'd have to say that it was sort of a shocker, imho.

Well, it'll likely start in early September so you do the math!

It was a shocker but based on the last 2 nights, I was happy.

On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoyed the season finale of THE MENTALIST even though I caught the give away clue to the identity of one of the perps and was way ahead of the game there. Still very effective episode to close out the season.

Tonight's LAW AND ORDER: SVU turned out to be a powerhouse - I guessed the ending early, but it hardly mattered.

Matt H. · « **Reply #250 on:** May 19, 2009, 08:25:08 PM »

And I ended my evening watching the finals of AMERICAN IDOL. No question that Adam is the better performer even with that unfortunate song both he and Kris had to sing at the end of the show.

I could easily see Kris winning, however. He's got that same kind of homespun appeal that brought the title to Taylor Hicks (though Katherine McPhee wasn't much competition.) Ah, well, at least the season is over.

I did record GLEE and will watch it at some point over the next few days. I'm looking forward to it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #252 on:** May 19, 2009, 08:28:54 PM »

I was also glad Adam repeated "Mad World" so I could get a recording of it. I have all of the performances from "Tracks of My Tears" onward. but I didn't have that one from the week the show ran way over. I had only heard and seen it on the internet, and having it in HD and stereo surround sound was SO much more enjoyable.

Dear FJL, Miss California can bite me.

Matt H. · « **Reply #254 on:** May 19, 2009, 08:47:06 PM »

Well, I have some computer stuff to take care of and then I think I'll head downstairs to bed. Another busy day or reviewing tomorrow, so I need some sleep.

Good night!

DR Sam -

I've felt so many earthquakes since 1965 (when I moved to LA) that they don't bother me anymore. The trick is to live in buildings that survived. Also, after having the TV fall on me while sleeping through one in the 1980's, what else is there to worry about.

And, apparently, there was another one tonight. I think. -At least according to some posts on Facebook and Twitter.

I'm only up to SEARCH FOR SPOCK in my review chore, but I noticed quite a bit of DNR on the first film, something that normally doesn't bother me as much as it does others. But it was quite noticeable--Botox smoothness everywhere.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #261 on:** May 19, 2009, 09:32:35 PM »

Well, I'm going to try to get to bed at a semi-decent hour tonight - well, at least get into bed... So...

Goodnight.

Dear DAW, What else could one wish for

I'm all caught up.

Now time to say goodnight.

Pleasant Wednesday.

Till tomarrow evening.

I'm exhausted - I gotta tell you, shipping out 1000 CDs is exhausting, hence my exhaustion. I'm through viewing and shall shortly write some sort of exhausted notes.

Still and all, will we never get to page ten?

A Proposition 8 Quickie (about 90 seconds): a parody of the song "I'm Just Wild About Harry" (from the Broadway musical SHUFFLE ALONG)

I had to look for pictures from South Pacific, but I did notice his very (nicely) hairy chest in "Glee."
