  1. Emergency! 50th Anniversary Celebration UPDATE: As of December 22nd (yesterday, as I write this), the LA County Fire Museum regrets to announce that the activities surrounding the show’s 50th Anniversary celebration have to be postponed at this time, due to circumstances beyond their control. They say they are currently evaluating the situation and working on a new date, which will be announced when it’s chosen.
  2. The LA County Fire Museum’s Planning a multi-day celebration in January Marking the 50th Anniversary of the Show’s Premiere Among the activities is an evening with Randy & Kevin, talking about the show & doing a Q&A. It might include the other actors who made up Station 51, because there’s a reference to a cast Q&A sometime, but so far Randy & Kevin are the only cast scheduled to appear. I doubt Robert Fuller will attend; he retired from acting after the show & took up ranching in Texas, I’ve read, plus I think he’s in his 80’s now. He’s the only surviving actor, that I know of, whose character was on staff at Rampart. Maybe the actor who played Dr. Morton’s still around. Otherwise, the evening with the cast will be the same as the evening with Randy & Kevin.
  3. I guess, like, your more conservative ones, like Roman Catholic—there was a big legal thing here, a few years ago, where a local/area Catholic school fired a teacher for using IVF to at least try to get pregnant (I can’t remember if she did or not); she sued the Diocese over it. I think she won but I can’t remember that for sure either.
  4. I’m not sure about conceiving, though I might’ve heard something, at 1 time, about stuff like IVF being frowned upon, which may have subsequently been reversed, but I’m pretty sure artificial birth control is frowned on by many/most religions.
  5. If Josh & Anna had a TV show of their own, it would now be titled 7 Kids & No More Counting Necessary. I’ll bet she’s happy she won’t have to be his brood mare (I think that’s the term I want) anymore, & certain overworked parts of her body will finally get a rest. Let’s just hope they didn’t think about putting some stuff on ice somewhere so Anna could keep getting pregnant with his kids without Josh actually being there to make his contribution. I think at least some of the married daughters might now be worldly enough to know about things like that, but I think the (older) kids still in Arkansas probably aren’t. I don’t think they’re that intelligent & what they really know about the world outside the family compound is probably heavily censored.
  6. I just got a notification on my iPhone saying Josh Duggar has been convicted in his child porn case. He faces 20 years in prison. Apologies for not having anything to link to (yet).
  7. Thanks for sharing. Yes, it’s probably actually an interview, but I think of it as more of a talk since we don’t hear the interviewer asking the questions. Who knows? Maybe he’s answering questions off of a cue card. By the way, Thomas Schlamme’s wife is Oscar-winning actress Christine Lahti, who most recently had a multi-season recurring role as Doris McGarrett, the long-believed dead, but still alive CIA operative mother of Navy SEAL LtCdr Steve McGarrett, Head of the Five-0 Task Force, on the recently-ended, decade-long CBS reboot of Hawaii Five-0. She won the Oscar for directing the Best Short Subject, I think it was. I also forget the title & year.
  8. Regarding the passing of Arlene Dahl: She had her own line of beauty products. She also was the mother of actor Lorenzo Lamas, from her marriage to the late actor/director Fernando Lamas. Lorenzo is best known from the CBS series Falcon Crest. That had a long run following Dallas on Friday nights. He then starred in a successful syndicated series, which I think was called Renegade. As far as I know, he seems to have fallen into obscurity since that series ended.
  9. I wonder if William Shatner sent any kind of condolences to the family of the guy who was on the outer space flight with him, or if he was the typically assholic person most people claim? I mean, I’m pretty sure the people on the flight were together for some kind of preflight training & they didn’t all just meet up wherever on the day, ride out to the capsule, do the flight & post flight stuff, then go their separate ways, maybe never to be in contact again.
  10. From NBC News: Glen de Vries, William Shatner Crew Mate on Space Flight, Killed in Small Plane Crash in New Jersey He was 49. The other man besides de Vries on the plane was also killed. De Vries was the co-founder of Medidata Solutions, a software company which specializes in management of electronic data from clinical trials. He also served as a trustee for Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh.
  11. Could be a “surfer” thing. More likely it helped disguise the fact Scott’s hair was already thinning out at an early age (If I remember, Scott & Alex were only 34 when the show actually premiered—& so about a year younger when the Pilot filmed; mid-30s is an early age to begin going bald). If you look at a bunch of the scenes where Danny’s hair got wet during a Five-0 op of some kind, the front of his hairline wasn’t that great for a guy his age.
  12. Sorry… I was trying to figure out how to edit on this version of the software. And I still can’t use it properly without having to go through Facebook to Primetimer, then to the Forums.
  13. From People: Anne Burrell's Wedding Photos: See All the Details from Her 'Fairytale' Fall Day Chef Anne Burrell can regularly be seen on the Food Network, either judging on other chefs’ shows or as 1 of 2 hosts of The Worst Cooks in America & the show’s celebrity version, where she leads a team of either civilians or celebrities who allegedly don’t know how to cook, against another team with the same issue & led by another celebrity chef/Food Network host, down the road to cooking a 3-course meal for 3 “culinary experts”. The finalist from the team whose meal is judged the best wins a cash prize; the cash prize won by the celebrity is donated to his/her favorite charity. As far as her recent marriage, some to many might find it unusual she married a man. Back in 2012, she announced her engagement to another female chef—so many must’ve assumed she was a lesbian. Then, in 2018, she began dating the man she eventually married in the ceremony depicted above; they got engaged while quarantining with her family last year & recently married in the ceremony depicted above.
  14. Legacy.com: Tim Donnelly (1944-2021), Actor Known for “Emergency! This obit was posted to Legacy.com on the 21st. He died on the 19th. The only info I know about it is posted at the link. He was the brother of frequent Emergency! director Dennis Donnelly. He leaves behind other survivors, who are either kids or grandkids.
  15. Well, a sort of high profile celebrity’s “Say Yes to the Dress”-connected marriage has gone bust, apparently, with the divorce announced exactly 3 years, to the day, of the wedding. The unhappy couple is… Iron Chef Cat Cora & her now-estranged wife, producer Nicole Erlich. The ironic thing is, their SYTTD episode, where they shopped together, but separately, so neither would see the other’s dress before the wedding, with their own separate entourages who voted on the possible gowns, & acted like schoolgirls (or something), proclaiming through the closed doors to each of their dressing rooms that it was agony for them to be apart long enough to choose their dresses, was on TLC earlier this morning. And since the wedding they’ve proclaimed nothing but being the happiest they’ve ever been, & finding their dream life partner, in the other. Ms. Ehrlich filed this divorce; I think Cat Cora filed to end her first, 17-year plus marriage, from which she shares four sons with her first wife, Jennifer, along with a lot of legal actions claiming Jennifer is trying to legally damage Cat’s personal & professional reputation.
