Other than the weird way the chandelier is hanging, I haven't a clue what could be wrong here.

I firmly believe that the NoDS wig is the one that Grayson was given to wear on her Night Gallery episode, Certain shadows on the wall.  That was filmed in August of 1970 (but not broadcast until December of that year).  In an interview she gave to the people running her fan club at the time, Grayson said that that wig had originally been worn by Rita Hayworth in one of her films.  They either let her keep it, or she just walked off the set wearing it!

Unfortunately, I can't cleverly post comparison snapshots of Grayson on Night Gallery and NoDS, but the two wigs look identical to me.

I remember looking at a publicity photo of Grayson in NoDS when I was visiting Sam Hall.  I said, "I bet she was thinking '*I* am the QUEEN of Dark Shadows' when that picture was snapped."  Sam chuckled and said, "She was more likely thinking, 'This dress is too god damned TIGHT!"

Hi Julian, ever see Trouble in Paradise?  Herbert Marshall was divoon in that.

As for Ashton K., he's a frothy little sex kitten, that I wouldn't kick out of bed for eating crackers.

I'm *sca-reaming* at Midnite's new avatar!  eeee-yowww!  wait till Jennifer has a peek at it!

suddenly my trousers feel waaayyy too tight.  oops!  did someone slip viagra into my iced tea?  Noooo, it's fearless Don Briscoe to the rescue!  Chaaarge!!!!

You all know, of course, that Satan in High Heels is on my list of the Ten Greatest Movies of All Time.  I luffff that flick.  I must screen it at least once every six months.  Grayson fiercely rules in the role of Pepe, and the film's soundtrack is an absolute hoot!

Haven't seen the Minx.  It sounds like a gas!  Dear Robert Rodan.  Who knew?

At the top of my list of "weird funny movies with DS Actors" is a yet-to-be-rediscovered gem from anno 1957, Run across the river. It was the screen debut for both Jerry Stiller (Ben's pop) and a little known off-B'way character actress who'd been in the business much longer than she let on, one Miss Shirley Grayson, later to be known far more widely as Grayson Hall!  I have a photocopy of a lobby card from this film, and it includes a shot of Grayson, as a female beatnik, doing a sort of gypsy bongo dance!

getting ready to move and quickly going out of what's left of my mind,

Hi Cassandra, I love Flo too!  I love watching her on the old Ed Sullivan videos.  It just breaks my heart that she had such an awful life.

have you heard Flo's solo song from that Sam Cooke album?  It's awesome.  Unfortunately, Flo's own LP, that she worked on for awhile after she left the Supremes, isn't so great--at least the bootleg tape I heard of it was less than stellar.  I think things were already wearing her down at that point (1968).

also, there's this book called All that Glitters--at least, I think that is the title--by a man who was running one of the Supremes' fan clubs in the Sixties.  There were some great stories about Flo in there.

He actually reminds me of a sleazy, down-at-heels, faded-pimp version of Don Ameche.  but I'm sure I am the only one here who remembers the divine Don Ameche.

Hi Doombuggy, well, I had no idea that DC fired Miss Welles.  Did she finally give him a piece of her mind about one of his nuttier storyline convolutions?

I have the one print interview with her that was published in TWODS (I think).  What a great lady.

Would love to have more details in a private IM (since we are not allowed to discuss dish about the show here).

Best wishes, Steve
