Overheard on Tattletales:

Share a gif from a horror movie you love.

Nicholas Hammond is still alive and acting and for some reason they’ve never given him a cameo in any of the Spider-Verse films. Seems rude to me.

As promised on here, my write-up on Lewis Pullman is live. Particularly, on his overlooked work in THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE which grew stronger on rewatch while highlighting arguably the story's biggest missed opportunity. Take a look!

Dorothy Provine was a delight.

Beautiful costumes… Miss Olay and Miss Maggie #TheGreatRace #tcmparty

Overheard on Tattletales: “I’ve been poor, but I’ve never been chaste.” - Allen Ludden.

We didn’t deserve Beverly Garland.

Now Watching.

My weekly Virginian deep dive let me talk so much Richard Carlson this week. How much longer before I get a Hugh Marlowe episode, I wonder?

“Would I be doing you quote gentlemen unquote an injustice if I surmised that the local zoo is missing two of its residents?” William Conrad in Cannon (s4e5) with what be one of my favorite new quotable lines.

Holy miscasting Franchot Tone, Batman.

A delightful joy of a movie.

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Who had “beach buggy chase scene” on their bingo card? I sure didn’t.

Overheard on Tattletales: “They’re making a film about how you met and fell in love with your husband. Do you think that would be an interesting film the public would want to see?” “Do they have X-rated documentaries?” -Becky Anderson (married to Bill Anderson)

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

I’ve been deep into some completionist viewing and some day I would like an app that tracks performers in TV episodes like we get on Letterboxd. My William Schallert tally would be so much higher 🤣

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.

Overheard on Tattletales: “Love making can be planned or unplanned. How far in advance do you usually know? A day? A few hours? A few minutes or a few seconds”. Lorenzo Music: “One time I didn’t know till way after…” Christopher George: “Now is this with your wife?…”.

“Is that series still playing somewhere on reruns, Maverick?” “I don’t know, John. I don’t get residuals. That was before residuals. I’m the only actor who ever did a tv series for 3 years and it cost me $8,000”. I don’t talk about how much I love either of these performers enough.

And it was then, William Smith knew, he should have worn his other blazer.

Holy color coordinated costuming, Batman.

I am going against my completionist tendencies and meandering through the final season of Hawaii Five-O because… William Smith. I took me far too long to find out he recurred for even this small snippet.

I found the cutest Whit Bissell article in the Grand Rapids Press (9/16/1973). This made my heart happy.

Overheard on Tattletales: I’ve seen couples on this show, mothers and sons, fiancées and friends. I have never seen someone bring their ex-spouse… until gossip columnist Joyce Haber, that is.

Overheard on Tattletales: “Ladies, you’re invited with your husband to attend the televised premiere of a ‘hardcore’ movie. Would you go?” Amanda Blake: “Because Frank is… how he is… no. We would not attend… now if it were left entirely up to me and I were single?”

In tonight’s Virginian Vault: I spy with my little eye a suuuuuuper young Robert Pine. Season 3 Episode 26.

Overheard on Tattletales: “My husband is an internist. As he says he’s the kind of doctor who does people good to distinguish himself from me.” -Dr. Joyce Brothers

The number of Russ Meyer movies that I’m finding on Prime Video boggles the mind.

This morning’s watch. Thank you Tubi! Though, I kept getting Beach Blanket Bingo moments in my brain. If I had a nickel for every quirky man/might be a mermaid related narrative I’ve seen in the mid-1960s… I’d have two nickels.

Chloé Zhao is only the second woman (behind Jane Campion) to be nominated for best director twice #Oscars

IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME!!! #Oscars

FIRST WOMAN TO EVER WIN BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY. FIRST BLACK PERSON TO WIN BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY. FIRST FILIPINA TO WIN BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY. ACADEMY AWARD WINNER AUTUMN DURALD ARKAPAW.

Autumn Durald Arkapaw is the FIRST female cinematographer to ever win the Oscar for Best Cinematography, for her work on Sinners. She is also the first woman of color to win and be nominated for this category. When she asked every woman in the audience to stand, I got so emotional. #Oscars

A double Pullman, I can't believe it.

Now that’s a real meme moment from Leo. #Oscar

Kudos to the Academy for doing a longer and more poignant in memoriam segment. It's a step in the right direction.

😭😭😭😭😭

Sinners…finally #Oscars

Please don't let this be Sinners only award tonight 🙏🏼 #Oscars

A TIE??? AT THE OSCARS??? We... didn't know you could do that.

MATT BERRY HIVE

National Film Board of Canada is always supporting the weirdest little films god bless #Oscars

Conan being here makes my heart so happy. 💕

I read something (I can't remember where) that being a woman in your 40s is just getting back to being the girl you were in your teens and 20s, except this time, you love her. I haven't been able to stop thinking about that since.

Two episodes into Young Sherlock and Dónal Finn has me intrigued.

One of my favorite classic tv variety moments as The 4 Preps struggle to control a case of the giggles (stemming reportedly from an off camera joke being played on them by Dick Clark). The appearance is credited to be the Saturday Night Beech-Nut Show.

Respond to this with an image from a movie that always cheers you up, but don't name the movie. just share an image.

The thought of what is still out there waiting to be found. Preservation continues to matter.
