Watched NCIS for the first and last time tonight. A serial killer due to be electrocuted in a few days decides to play cat and mouse games with his old nemesis (Mark Harmon) in a canny plot to postpone his execution.

No likeable characters (well, except for one brainy guy the rest of the cool officers loved picking on; I HATE bullies), a scenario so full of holes and contrivance that my eyes were rolling in my head before fifteen minutes had passed.

But the show has been flowering in the ratings this year, and I wondered why. THAT'S the biggest mystery involved with this show that I could fathom.

You know I see parts of this show every week while waiting for The Amazing Race to come on...and I feel the same way about it. Every character is so annoying, so "hip" and "cool" acting, it is just silly.

I also watched the last half of THE SINGING NUN.

I had forgotten that this was a BIG MGM reunion film with all of the major actors from MGM's golden days: Debbie, Greer Garson, Agnes Moorehead, Ricardo Montalban (who looked GREAT), and Tom Drake. (Had forgotten Katherine Ross was in it, too, as well as the always wonderful Juanita Moore.)

This was shot in Panavision, but looked more like early Cinemascope in 2.55:1 aspect ratio. It was VERY narrow.

I don't think I know from Sondheim. However, I had thought he was a current songwriter...but looking at peoples lists I guess he is not.

I guess I don't know.

Who are the chicks?  I vaguely remember Kaptain Kool, but I was mostly a CBS Saturday morning kid.

Just consulted my Krofft book, and Lembeck not only beat out BK for the "One Day at a Time" role, but he beat out Tom Hanks for the Kaptain Kool role.

The shows during the Krofft Super Show hosted by the good Kap'n and Ko. were
Electra Woman and Dyna Girl (with the hot Diedre Hall)
Dr. Shrinker
Wonderbug
The Lost Saucer
Magic Mongo
and
Bigfoot and Wildboy

The Kongs were future impressionist (mostly of Cher) Louise DuArt as "Nashville,"
Mickey McMeel as "Turkey"
and Debby Clinger as "Superchick."

I do recall Electra Woman and Dyna Girl but none of the others.

I wonder if they will ever release any of the one-year wonders of Hanna-Barbara on DVD.  Shows like FRANKENSTEIN JR AND THE IMPOSSIBLES, SPACE KIDDETTES, WAIT TILL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME.

DRMBARNUM - I think there is enough music and lights to keep you awake during THERE'S NO BUSINESS LIKE SHOW BUSINESS....it's like a mini Bollywood movie with BIG numbers breaking out all over....and Mitzi Gaynor with a wastebasket on her ass.  Who could ask for anything more?

DR RLP - I am shocked SHOCKED that you have given a film the wrong title.

Mr Hugh O'Brien, Mr Cliff Robertson, and Miss Lana Turner all appear in the film LOVE HAS MANY FACES....with the most amazing example of camel toe on a major star I have ever seen....I had to look away!

WHERE LOVE HAS GONE on the other hand stars Susan Hayward, Mike Conners, Joey Heatherton, and Bette Davis is a white-washed version of the Turner-Stompanato-Crane fiasco.

I've never seen Frankenstein Jr, except as a comic book, and I heard it's pretty good. Wonder if they ever show it on BOOM, that non-stop Hanna Barbera network.

I liked NCIS - tonight's episode is a repeat and not one its better shows.  I like the actors who play their familar parts well.  But then, that's horses for you.

TAR is headed for the last round up with a two-hour finale next week!  Then let's get BACK to the regular race, folks!!

Living near Indy, JRand, you must have run into Ms. Romano and her two lovely daughters—okay, one lovely one—from time to time.

She claimed to shop at Block's!  So I stopped going there.  And there are NO apartments like the one she lived in in Indianapolis that I know of.  I don't know who the Indianapolis "expert" was on that show, but I don't think they ever did more than open the phone book.

I remember "Electra Woman and Dyna Girl" and a show about Isis.  Anyone remember that?

Good Evening!

Well... I'm almost caught up on the Notes and Posts from the past couple of days.  I believe I just need to catch up on Tuesday and Wednesday (today) at this point...

But that will have to wait until tomorrow/today/Wednesday...

Thankfully, my call is not until Noon tomorrow, but I do need to get up early enough to get my workout in - which I've faithfully been doing the past two and a half weeks! - and also make a run to the grocery store before heading in...

But before I go...
