What a note by BK. I always had a hard time when a show ended. All these random people coming together for a singular purpose. Relationships form, a whole ecosystem. The roar of the greasepaint, etc. And then…poof! Everyone goes their separate ways. A party, a vow to stay in touch, some do, most don’t, on to the next chapter.

Vixter 32! Gads! I was about that age when I found HHW. Tempus freakin’ fugit!

Carson, it would be nigh impossible to convey to young people of today what a fixture he was in our lives back in the day. You watch clips and his interviews take their time, he lets people do their thing, but he’s always ready with a great reaction or quip. His weakness was his scripted comedy bits, but in unscripted fare, nobody is or will be better.

Shoulder vibes for John. What has helped me with shoulder issues is time in a swimming pool. Not anything vigorous, just floating and some light exercise in the water.

Boy, that Gypsy story and the one from the last Drat! make one wonder if humanity is in freefall.

At least the worst people got defeated in Canada yesterday. Carney seems like a genuinely intelligent, thoughtful guy, and he wouldn’t have had a chance had the Dumpster not united Canada with his 51st state rhetoric and tariffs.

And the election last fall didn’t?

Irritation is … missing puzzle pieces

Here it is now

Yeah, I guess just another data point on the downward trajectory.

One of the fun things about the opera chorus is that we have a lot of continuity between shows. Principals come and go, but choristers can stick around for a long time.

TOD: I watched some Johnny Carson, and other late-night favorites were the original SNL cast and Jay Leno. But I'm not much of a TV watcher, never mind late night TV. The only famous bit that I can recall seeing live vs on a replay was SNL's Bass-O-Matic sketch.

Good points, both of yez.

reminds me so much of the actor playing "Cousin Greg" on "Succession."

We're watching season 4 of "Succession" these days.  "Cousin Greg" is fascinating as one of those  characters you'd least expect on the surface (looks-wise) to be as wily and manipulative as he is.

A quite memorable Johnny Carson moment

And a happy haineshisway.com birthday to the Vixter, who somehow is thirty-two years old.

Amazing!

The shoulder is no better

I hope I can work for 13 hours.

Fingers crossed you survive the 13 hours.

Swimming helped my shoulder as I recovered.  I stopped going during the pandemic and never went back.

It is interesting.  I think the way he handled the car attack at the festival cinched it.

That’s why I always tried to cast a few folks from past shows, then you get a little rep vibe and add some newbies along the way.

Fred, the Greg-Tom dynamic is one of the things that really made the show fresh.

[Freddie]

The three main "Succession" siblings, actually the actors who played them, have certainly been big box office on Broadway.
