As for me and my house, it's still Rudolph every Christmas. #TeamHermey! R.I.P. Mr. Bass and thank you and Mr. Rankin for all the childhood memories.

It has to be as Hallowe'en Party is set in an English village. My guess is Branagh wanted to skip remaking any previous Poirot movie adaptations while making changes to maintain a glamourous setting.

R.I.P. Mr. Jordan. Go forth and twirl forever more.

Is it really? I haven't seen or heard of any P&G soaps (which Another World was one of) being in syndication for years. Isn't the rumor - or is it conspiracy theory? - the company hid all their surviving soap episodes in a vault?

IMO, this is a smart move. However . . . IF we're on the same page, I wonder about this too. I unexpectedly liked where they were going with Poirot in this latest DOTN and would be rather sad if it's just dropped.

Oh, the crime passionnel, the primitive instinct to kill, so closely allied to the sex instinct. Angela Lansbury as Salome Otterbourne Death on the Nile. R.I.P. dear lady.

TCM Remembers Angela Lansbury:

Recently wondering how many OG Perry Mason guest stars were still alive and Robert Brown crossed my mind. Interesting to learn Brown's father was private butler to Teddy Roosevelt and FDR's mother. Yes indeed. Jason Bolt had the sexiness and the voice to match. How else could he get those women to move to Seattle? LOL. R.I.P. Mr. Brown.
