Ooh, it's that hot road stallion, Buzzzz!  (sound of engines revving)  Jean-Claude, you really know the ART of pleasing a man!  (I'm referring to your skill with the capture button, sweetheart).

And Michael, it's great to see someone who really KNOWS the Sixties!  The ultimate laugh trio would be Paul Lynde, von Zipper and Buzz! Oh boy.

Penny, you ARE the coolest, spookiest chick!

Back a few years ago when the Sci Fi channel was working on an aborted documentary about DS, it's too bad they couldn't have filmed your basement, perhaps with a worn-out party-goer snoozing away inside!  I heard they were looking for a fan who actually slept inside a coffin, altho I don't think this is what they had in mind!

cheers, Gothique

Hooray for Francis Swann!  As I recall it, we still get some of Art Wallace.  I hadn't ever tracked that the whole real-time thing went right through the period when Wallace was writing the show single-handedly (so far as we know).

Do tell more about Francis Swann's novels.  If they're worth having, I'll keep an eye out on eBay (or alibris, or wherever).

Just have to comment that your remarks about Maggie and Carolyn crack me up!  As regards the Mistress of Casa Evans, I had no idea that they ran articles in the Sixties Readers Digest about how to handle your pet alkie, but how she behaves certainly sounds like chapter and verse from RD.

You never comment about the music, so I just have to note that I *love* the background music for that restaurant in Bangor.

More babble from me later on about these shows.  Thank you so much for writing.  I hope you are feeling better today.

Well, many thanks for posting that link.  I wrote that article years ago for what was supposed to have been a special Leviathans issue of Shadows of the Night print fanzine, and had not a clue that it had found its way to that website, since the editor stopped replying to my emails shortly after I submitted the article to him.

It's always nice to find out what has happened to one of "the kids" long after it left home...

Oh, Jean-Claude, my dear, lovely man, you ARE Wicked!!!

Oh yes, mine is VERY politically incorrect... Grayson babbles in "Ching Chong" fake chinoiserie, then exclaims, "Wait a minute, I don't even SPEAK Chinese!"

One thought that just occurred to me today is that the recording of her voice may have been slightly speeded up, resulting in a vocal timbre that just doesn't sound much like GH.

I'd really love to have a copy of Disney's file on this.  Do you have any idea to whom I would write about that?

Steve

Have a wonderful day, doing what you like best!

Blessings of health, prosperity, joy and hope for your New Year!

Steve

This is all the funnier if you are aware of a mid Sixties interview in which Grayson mentions having been approached by the director to play in the Graduate.

She didn't mention which role, but I'm sure you know which one *I* see her in.

"Do you want me to SEDUCE you?"
