Seeing the screen cap of Jason and Willie in the May background reminded me that while watching the binge it hit me that I'm pretty sure we don't see the Willie's bedroom at Collinwood set ever again after Willie moves to the Old House. And I think that it was a great bedroom set what with those bookcases flanking the window and the wall sconces above the bed, and the great bed itself:

How odd that in all the years afterward the show never reconstructed it as the same bedroom for some other character living at Collinwood...
If only these synopses on tvguide.com are for the eps that will actually be on Monday/Tuesday on Decades - but I seriously doubt it:
(And yes, these are copied exactly as they appear on tvguide.com - someone there may have been drinking the day they were typed. ::))

I mean, how magnificent would it be to celebrate DS' 50th by having some of the key eps featuring The Pen showcased?! Sure, Bill Malloy's ghost would also be seen - and the synopses for that ep may say it was "pivotal" - but there's no way Bill's ghost can ever compete with the gloriousness that is The Pen!! [nodno]

Although, while one would expect the synopses on Decades own site to be correct, let's not forget that for the first Binge they were way, Way, WAY OFF - so, who knows what eps may really show up on Monday/Tuesday...
