And it it's a Sunday matinee, we could all go to the Smokehouse afterwards. Of Genghis Cohen.

[bk]

Enter page five.

[bk]

Page five? Really?

[bk]

Not very sporting.

[bk]

Just had to let one of our actresses go - she'd already missed one rehearsal due to food poisoning, but her single conflict suddenly turned into five days of missed rehearsals just as we're in run-throughs - not dealing with it this time. Trying to find a replacement right now.

[Jane]

Sorry.  Good luck you find someone.

Do you think she was being misleading when she'd said there was just one conflict?

[bk]

Apparently so.

[bk]

I think she, like most young people, thought we'd just deal with it. Not this time. I'd rather have one less person in the show than deal with it, frankly.

In Succession, Alan Ruck rips a server for laying out the dinner forks incorrectly. The only problem is, in the shot, the forks are on the wrong side of the plate.

? Do you mean they are on the correct side of the plate to begin with?

No. They are misplaced but on the wrong side of the plate.

No. They are misplaced but on the wrong side of the plate.

Then getting called on it seems correct.  I guess I needed to see the scene-lol

[Jane]

I wish my head would stop hurting.  Maybe by tomorrow.

The setting was wrong and the correction was equally wrong.

More vibes, Jane.

Got it.

Thank you.

Are they still giving that antiviral for covid? I sent a message to the doctor through the MyChart thing asking if I would be a candidate for it. It was called in pretty quickly.

It didn't get any worse, and it faded pretty quickly, as I recall.

[Laura]

Paxlovid

[Laura]

I hope your headache and the aches go away quickly, Jane. And I'm so thankful you had all the shots.

[Rodzinski]

Riptide was Stephen J. Cannell, post A-Team adventure crime fighter vibes like Hunter and Hardcastle and McCormick. Gotta have cool vehicles, in this case, a big, fat, pink helicopter. Then a nerdy guy with a robot to capture the kid audience. Definition of formulaic. It started kinda cool, but like A-Team, grew tiresome. It was that brand of comic book violence where nobody ever got killed in a gunfight. Perry King and Joe Penny. The slick but dark realism of Miami Vice kinda wiped this stuff off the map, eventually.

[Rodzinski]

Actors. Give ‘em an inch they’ll keep taking… So yeah, sometimes you gotta cut it down till you just have the committed folks.

[Rodzinski]

Just be sure to remove that name from the poster, BK.

Early on I decided I was at risk for one of the side effects triggering my IBS and it wouldn't be worth it for me.

[Jane]

Thank you.  I read that I would be a candidate to do the shot every six months.  I am not sure we would have done so, vs once a year.  Since six months would have been the end of this month it won't be happening now.

[John G.]

Just be sure to remove that name from the poster, BK.

Amen. And good riddance.

[John G.]

What date would that matinee be?

[John G.]

Succession continues. Finishing the second of three discs.

[John G.]

It's King Lear, only with less nice offspring.

[John G.]

Onward!
