RIP DIXIE CARTER

The Designing Women star passes at the age of 70.

It is a shame she was never nominated for an Emmy award for her role of Julia Sugarbaker. She was brilliant in deliver the dialogue that was written for her mainly by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason

I am very pleased and excited that MR BK and DR CP will be traveling to Indiana to see BRAINEX this coming Friday.

I am so also glad that MR BK switched his hotel to the More Convenient One!  He will be on the west side of Indianapolis, and so he will have to tell a West Side Story when he is in town.

My friends former DR Evil Kurt and our friend Adrienne R. will be joining me when we dine with BK & CP and then see the show at the Buck Creek Players.

There will be photos.

And today....yes today.....I will be seeing the BRAINEX matinee with my friend Bryan - who is artistic director of the Phoenix Theatre in Indy....he says they are showing SCI FI movie previews beginning at 2 o'clock, so we will certainly be in attendance for that....so my guess is that they will be showing them on Friday beginning at 7:30.

This is the week.....yes, Messala, this is the week.

Good morning, all!  I slept later than I intended, first awakened by the ass above me around 5:40 am (I checked the clock) and after that, having a dream about visiting the neighbors who lived next to us at 3005 Goldman. We lived at 3003; my dad built the house between 1947 and 1950, when we moved into it. In 1980, he sold the house to my brother Randy, who lived there until he moved around 1997. In my dream, I visited Jack Tilton, whose wife died shortly after my mother, and saw his two children Susan and Mark. Part of the dream involved my looking for food and talking about my late father. The Tiltons were a nice family, and I have no idea what dredged up those memories.

Dixie Carter was a lady I had always wanted to meet when I was working at the Drama Book Shop. She and her husband were friendly with the owners, but our paths never crossed. I think the first thing I ever saw her do was the 1976(?) revival of PAL JOEY at Circle In The Square; she played the caustic reporter Melba who sings "Zip." She was wonderful.

Today, I have to finish the Montgomery & Stone work for the copyists and write a new drum part and vocal part for the piece. I may do laundry, although I am tempted to let it go until tomorrow, and I'll watch more of Season Two of BONES.

My allergies are still in an uproar. That is all.

My introduction to Dixie Carter was a CLO production of  A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC in which she played Desiree.  She was divine.  The production around her was not. . .(the entire chorus and corps de ballet was used as the quintet of singers).

BK that is too bad about all the spelling errors/typos ...

I'm sure they had a few people look at it.  Although obviously the wrong people (since some people spot things easily and others obviously don't).

Will you tell him about all the errors if asked?

Tonight is a new episode of TAR. And i have a bunch of things on my PVR.

Last night I watched tonight's BROTHERS & SISTERS, which was shocking to me but maybe won't be to others.

Good morning!

Still very chilly here in the mornings making for a very cool (almost cold) walk. I did wear a thin sweatshirt, so that helped a little. TOmorrow promises to be a bit warmer in the mornings which will be nice if I'm going to wear shorts for the walk.

Yes, the two hour BROTHERS & SISTERS will be recorded, but since I don't want to watch merely an hour of it, I guess I'll have to wait to watch it tomorrow.

I'll be working on RIDE WITH THE DEVIL today for my work project. Tomorrow looks like I'll get to the Blu-ray of SUMMER HOURS (did the DVD a couple of weeks ago).

I still have the SPARTACUS episode from Friday night on the DVR and now two movies: I LOVE YOU, MAN and GRAN TORINO.

I'll probably go to HD Showcase on Demand and watch last week's NCIS: LA episode while I eat lunch. SPARTACUS is just so violent that it doesn't do much for the appetite to watch it.

I've only seen a few DESIGNING WOMEN episodes, but I always enjoyed them. Excellent ensemble cast and good writing. I never thought it was quite as good as MURPHY BROWN (on during mainly the same years and on the same network), but I did find it funny.

Those were the years when I was balancing teaching, writing reviews, and doing theater, so I watched very little TV back then (if you can believe that)!

After she became known for "Designing Women," Dixie Carter did another revival of "Pal Joey" -- this time playing Vera and Elaine Stritch playing Melba.

DR Elmore,

I also adored the BONES episode where Brennen and Hodgins are trapped in the car. It's tremendously suspenseful and very emotionally involving.
