Working via iChat - my mind is elsewhere - dealing with the ASS.  I'm trying one thing, and if that works we'll put out the CD.  If it doesn't, I'm done with it and people won't get the score.

Welcome seven GUESTS.

[John G.]

On the subject of Sean Hayes hosting the Tonys: Why have a host? I know, they can be good -- Neil Patrick Harris, Hugh Jackman, Rosie O'Donnell -- but Hayes is a little too light and not as varied as some of his predecessors. I'd rather see more musical numbers than listen to somebody make lame jokes.  

[John G.]

Congrats to Christopher Fitzgerald. I've listened to the new "Finian's" three times now and like it better with each hearing.

[John G.]

By the way, has anybody read about the proposed revival of "Ballroom"? Marvin Hamlisch has been brought in to augment Billy Goldenberg's original score. I know we talked about Billy recently with the Kritzerland release of his score for "Busting," but I wonder why he's not writing the new music. "Ballroom" has some beautiful songs in it. "I Wish You a Waltz" has been a personal theme song since I started taking ballroom lessons, "Fifty Percent" is spectcular (even when Bea Arthur sang it), and "A Terrific Band ..." is a charater number most any show would kill to have. Sure, one or two of the ballroom songs are dated, but Goldenberg could write new ones as well as Hamlisch.

I couldn't stand "Seinfeld," but I watched the finale.  I guess it was a great ending for a show I never liked...at least the characters go what I thought they deserved.  Hope they're all still in that jail cell...unwashed, unfed and still arguing about stupid stuff. 

That is what DS Bryan said about it.

Loved "Newhart" and "Friends" finales.  The "Frasier" finale was good but sad.  I don't remember the end of "Cheers" or "Taxi", but I know I watched 'em.

"Mary Tyler Moore Show" was my favorite comedy show farewell, bar none. 

I forgot I liked the Friends final.  I don't remember if I watched Frasier, certainly have no recollection of it.  I can't remember Taxi & I know I watched it.  I remember Cheers & liked much of it.

DR Danise, VIBES YOU HEAR SOONER THAN LATER & IT IS IN YOUR FAVOR!!!

I mean about the final episode, he loved the show.  We thought it was great in the beginning and tired of it after awhile.  These people kept getting worse, not better.

I thought it was a great series with the lousiest finale in television history. I still laugh myself silly at the reruns.

They weren't supposed to get better. It was a series about selfish, socially unredeemable people and that was its greatest virture: no sentimentality, just obnoxious opportunists making asses of themselves.  I still think it's one of the best.

[John G.]

I watched "Seinfeld" for the first few seasons and I know many of the storylines are now classics, with words like "mansierre" entering the vocabulary and the practice of double dipping disturbing way too many people. (I guess few of those people have ever eaten in Europe where it's fairly commonplace).

Yet I lost interest and didn't care about the finale. Yet I can understand why the letdown of that episode has the show's fans fuming to this day. When something is that personal to you, as that show obviously is, it hurts to see it exit on anything less than a high point.

[Jane]

True DR elmore except I didn't think they were so bad in the begging, certainly Elaine wasn't.

Maybe that's why I watched in the beginning.

For those still interested in "Lost", check out this excellent (IMO) ' tvsquad' overview of what happened last night!

This was very helpful.  Thanks for the link.

And on that note (D-flat), I'm off.  My parents bought a new DVD/VCR combo and want me to hook it up for them and to teach them how to use it, so I will.  At least they don't have shelves that need to be put up.

Until later.

Ron P - Interesting, my sense of the MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW finale was sort-of similar to what you said about FRASIER.  I found the MTM finale very good as a quality piece of work, but very sad for the characters I'd spent the years with - with respect to who got canned from WJM-TV and who got kept, all seemed like it was for shock value, and betrayed the values I had felt about these people all the years.  I really had to put that MTM finale out of my mind as I watched the reruns.

I gotta tell you.  Just off the telephonic device with a very nice fellow - if all comes to pass, it will result in several new projects of excellent genre music.

[Cillaliz]

DR Cillaliz who are you cheering for on DANCING WITH THE STARS?

And who do you think will win?

Cheering for Derek and Nicole.   Not sure who will win

You know, I'd really appreciate it if the local news would preface their five-day forecast with "WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS."

We should have watched a movie, after MEDIUM we had nothing left to watch.  I do, Keith doesn't.  I have Bones & Glee.  Keith doesn't want to watch either.  I kind of sped through Glee on my own.  I didn't realize who was the glee teacher at Jesse's school until she began singing, then the light bulb went on in my head.  When I saw her live on stage she was green.
