I meant to ask... beyond the line in today's image, was there ever any acknowledgement that Liz noticed that Julia had just disappeared overnight?

I was watching some of the early Laura Collins episodes (1966/67) a few weeks ago and it was pretty blatantly clear that Roger was THRILLED at the idea of Laura packing David off for good.  There are some really good scenes when Liz starts to dig her heels in and Roger is genuinely baffled as to why she's opposed to something that "is really in his best interests."

It's so beyond apparent that Roger would just love to be rid of David at this point...

I meant to post this as I believe it was taped the day they did this episode:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JaRg1u86Mc

Radio interview for the Ron Barry Show with Jonathan, Grayson, HHA, Robert Rodan, Roger Davis and (only in the first segment, because he had to leave for an appointment) Don Briscoe.

Interesting that Barry treats Davis as if he's already figured out he's a jerk... some start early...

Love Grayson's infectious laughter when Briscoe purrs, "I'm the apprentice vampire."

Joseph Morgan needs to connect with his Inner Flouncing Tart... perhaps he should try watching some Pansy Faye episodes of DS?  lol

Mison has an inner "flouncing tart" ... now I *really* think I am in love...

Not sure if it's on topic for us, but I saw a report on another site that in the first episode of the new series of American Horror Story, this time subtitled Coven, there's a scene in which Boss Witch and Grand Poohbah Jessica Lange releases someone from a chained coffin.

I personally have zero interest in the series at this point, but it might be amusing to have those who are watching (and I know you're out there) check in with any further plot points that seem oh so familiar to us DS fans.

Apparently the writer of these shows is quite the fan himself... recalling earlier installments that seem to have had a number of references to our show on board...

Love the opening pan of Julia's flasks, vials, retorts and lab equipment... the psychedelia of the color scheme seems very 1968...

Current Talk '13 II / Re: weird DS dream
« on: October 13, 2013, 09:26:45 PM »
Interesting dream.  It's also true that Robert Rodan went into DC's office one day to ask for a raise.  The next day, Adam went into Prof. Stokes' spare room and was never seen or heard from again (though in all fairness, the script did provide a short explanation for his disappearance--if you had happened to dash into the kitchen for a cup of tea, however, you'd have missed it).

I can STILL remember a dream I heard during the original broadcast that I was at Collinwood and I was meeting Barnabas, Julia and members of the family.  (I have strong abilities in the area of lucid dreaming.)

Julia wears one of my favorite outfits in this show.  Chic and lovely!

Despite the grim subject matter, I wonder if somebody in the production unit was having a bit of fun when the close-up on Joe at the end of act 1 reveals a sign hanging on the wall behind him reading "Please give blood."

Calendar Events / Announcements '13 II / Eva Green is in PENNY DREADFUL
« on: October 11, 2013, 08:22:53 PM »
Eva Green is mentioned as a cast member of next year's new supernatural Victorian horror series PENNY DREADFUL (not to be confused with the fabulous film series hostessed by my beloved Niece of the same name).  The cast list as notated in this release suggests a very high profile project:

Billie Piper (aka Doctor Who's Rose Tyler) is joining Penny Dreadful on Showtime, a reimagining of Gothic Victorian horror which already features Josh Hartnett, Eva Green and Timothy Dalton in its cast.

Billie Piper may be making a special guest appearance as a returning Rose Tyler in November’s 50th Anniversary Doctor WhoSpecial, but soon she’ll be trading in the TARDIS for another bout of Victorian supernaturalism.

Announced in a press release, the singer-actress has been cast to star in Showtime’s upcoming Penny Dreadful TV series, which shall begin production this fall with a 2014 premiere in mind. Piper is set to play Brona Croft, an Irish transplant who’s come to Victorian London to escape a dark and sordid past…only to find something far more dark in the way of spectral paintings, Undead tourists and reanimated science projects!

Piper joins a cast that already includes Josh Hartnett, Eva Green, Timothy Dalton, Reeve Carney, Rory Kinnear and Harry Treadaway.

Penny Dreadful is created and spearheaded by John Logan (Gladiator, The Aviator, Sweeney Todd), who is producing alongside Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Skyfall) and Mendes’ frequent Neal Street collaborator Pippa Harris. Juan Antonio Bayona of The Orphanage has already signed on to direct the first two episodes of a series that aims to reimagine the creations of Oscar Wilde, Mary Shelly and Bram Stoker, among others.

DLA I have a buddy who gets Me-TV which isn't on his cable roster via some kind of antenna he positioned on the roof, I think.  I know people here in the Boston areas who watch via a new form of rabbit ears. So, there are work arounds.

I luckily own every episode on DVD.  My interest in the topic is mainly along the lines of allowing younger generations the opportunity to see the show and potentially carry the torch forward. Those of us who watched back in the Sixties--sometimes whimsically called "the Ancient Blood"--aren't getting any younger.  alas.

Sorry, MB, I failed to check the date on that blog post.  Ah well.

The original email from my friend said that what he heard mentioned 2014 or even 2015 as start dates so perhaps the network is simply in negotiations with World Vision for the rights.  Who knows.  I'm not aware of the current status of DS with respect to Netflix streaming; for the younger audience that is a fairly good option for it.

I know it's OT,  but I saw an F Troop episode about ten years ago and the racism of the portrayal of American Indian people really threw me for a loop.  But then, it was also the era of HOGAN'S HEROES and all the fun of living in a Nazi concentration camp...
