RE: last night's DANCING WITH THE STARS

DR Cillaliz, did you pick a favorite yet?

My favorite dance last night was melissa joan hart and mark. I don't think that she is the strongest dancer. But she was much improved last night. And he choreographed an amazing routine.

I also thought donny osmond was very good.

Obviously mya is the strongest dancer. But she really rubbed me the wrong way last night, telling dimitri which of his choreography she wanted to change. To me if a celeb can do their own choreography then they really are too good to be in this competition. It is about them learning from the professionals.

One of my previous favorites was so bad last night that i think he may get voted out (louie). I just thought that was awful. What was chelsie thinking???

I also dislike michael irvin and chuck lidell. And thought aaron carter had problems (but i do like him and karina).

I think derek and joanna were quite good too. It's amazing how mark and derek can take any partner they get and make them quite good. I like them both as choreographers.

I spent a wonderful evening last night having dinner with Larry and then seeing Finian's Rainbow.

What a delightful production. I left the theatre smiling and very happy.

What a score (Look to the Rainbow is one of my favorite songs) and what a cast. Kate Baldwin is great as Sharon and Jim Norton is delightful as Finian. Mr. Jackson is quite good and works very well with KB, He's also very easy on the eyes. Terry White (a personal friend of Mr. Moore) is wonderful. The real treat is Christopher Fitzgerald (a good Irish boy) as Og, the leprechaun. Larry, you're right about his legs! Oh, my.

The cast is uniformly excellent and the score sounds great in the St. James Theatre.

There is REAL dancing in this show. Not a lot of gymnastic jumping around. It's real dancing. How wonderful!

I had no complaints. Larry can be very proud to be connected with this show. I hope it's a hit and runs a long time.

Good morning, all! I am back to the McGlinnventory this morning. I Was off a week with FINIAN'S RAINBOW band rehearsals and then our paralegal Geri had other rhings to deal with, so today we reconvene. I believe it will be a good time, and I hope to be out of there around 12. At 2 pm, the NYCGMC music director is coming over to discuss the Appalachian Carols stuation. I don't know if this will be a pleasant or tense meeting, but I simply want the piece performed as I finalized it, protecting at the same time myself and my publisher from illegal copies beng passed about.

After that, a nap perhaps and then a performance of FINIAN; I may learn more about the Finale situation tonight.

Good morning, DR Ben!

TOD:

I was never a big fan of TV cartoons, primarily because of the limited animation.

That said, two of my earliest publicity clients were Daws Butler and Don Messick and, it was through Mr. Messick that I got to meet one of my childhood heroes, Bud Abbott.  It was when they were doing that Abbott & Costello cartoon series back in the 1960s.

Well, I need a social secretary! There is no McGlinnventory today, as my colleague William Hicks just called to remind me; it's Thursday and Friday of this week. So, I sent an email to my PHI colleague Curtis about meeting on BABES Act Two this morning. In the meantime, I've got cartons to finish off and Fed Ex to phone. Oy.

Last night I watched THE MAN WHO UNDERSTOOD WOMEN, a rarely shown film.  And now I completely understand why.

I always liked the Peanuts Christmas and Great Pumpkin specials and the Grinch. I haven't seen either for years.

There was also A CHRISTMAS CAROL shown for a few years during the 70's that was beautifully animated:

I wish this was available on DVD.

Good morning!

Chilly and overcast today with more rain expected. But it seems like fall, and I'm not complaining. It's my favorite time of year.

TOD:

Beyond doubt, ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE were my all-time favorites. I was heartbroken when they only released the first three seasons of the show on DVD. That left two unreleased seasons. Thankfully, I had the old videotapes which contained several of the story arcs from those last two seasons, but lost are the "Fractured Fairy Tales," "Peabody's Improbable History," "Aesop & Son," and "Dudley Do-Right" from those last two years.

Arthur?  Really?  It's a cute show, and for a few years (probably starting when DearNephew Wilson was 3 years old), we probably watched one or two episodes a day.  I liked the characters and the lessons.

The first half dozen PEANUTS cartoon made-for-TV specials are all unique and wonderful. They retained the same voice cast for those first four or so, and those kids were never eclipsed by any other voice casting. These are the ones I return to the most often to relive and enjoy.

I have never been a fan of THE GRINCH. It bores me to tears. (I didn't grow up on DR. SEUSS.) I have the old original brown DVD release and never replaced it (they did do a DVD remaster that corrected much of what was awful about the original release, but I never bought it. I got the one I have in a used bin for $1.) I won't buy the Blu-ray either unless it's reduced GREATLY in price.
