  1. Wolf Hall won me over immediately with Damien Lewis as Henry for that reason. LOL
  2. A few years ago, I was on an SNL binge and was reading about Belushi and Farley. I read a lot of pretty depressing nonfiction, but I finally just had to stop. It was too sad.
  3. Yes that's where she talked about him throwing her cat during a fight.
  4. I read where someone had Lucy enact her revenge upon Harve Miller. 😂😂😂😂
  5. Confession: I didn't realize Busfield and MG are married. I was wondering why Danny from The West Wing was at a LHOTP reunion and trying to figure out if he guest-starred on a random episode. 😂😂😂
  6. Willie! Willie! I've seen a lot of people commenting that as an adult, he really resembles Richard Bull. That was good family casting!
  7. That's what really bums me out. I really do like her and some of the other cast members, and I probably would enjoy them if I watched. But not at the cost of JRM's Henry!
  8. Oh no I always liked him! Also tend to agree with Ebert's theory that "no movie featuring either Harry Dean Stanton or M. Emmet Walsh in a supporting role can be altogether bad." I mainly associate him with Coen Brothers movies, but I was happy to see him still acting in Knives Out and The Righteous Gemstones.
  9. Yes and I've never been able to get over one of the most famously redheaded persons in history being a brunette. They didn't even try. LOL I have occasionally thought about watching it, but because of my complaints about the Henry casting, I never can bring myself to start it.
  10. I suspect he does, but I also am not sure he really cares, which is probably the same difference.
  11. Yeah by all accounts, they absolutely hated each other on that set, which I'm sure is a factor in the attitude expressed, but Robert Evans was the villain of her story. If he'd just kept his mouth shut or offered up some civil comment that he didn't know about that but was sorry she'd experienced it, the focus would not have been on him. He just basically made sure way more people now reminisce about how terrible he is at acting and read his hateful diatribe than if he'd been quiet or gracious.
  12. Baldwin's unhinged social media meltdown about this is a masterclass in how not to respond.
  13. Which site are you using? The secretary of state site is very accurate in reflecting voter information on file with the county clerk's office.
  14. That's true, but I suspect the show may not mean the same to her as some of the other cast members for whatever reason. She could just as easily and perhaps more comfortably reconnect with them one-on-one rather than at a reunion. This came up with the Band of Brothers vets and their reunions. For a lot of them, it was such an essential part of their life that those connections were super important to them. But for at least one of them who went on to be career military, it was just one of many units he served with. He was proud of his service and he was polite to people who reached out to him to reminisce, but a reunion didn't interest him. He also didn't seek out those connections or seem too troubled by missing out on them.
  15. Honestly, with the comments that were made about her by M. Gilbert and Arngrim, I don't blame her. Some of the anecdotes about her as a kid do make her sound mean, but some of it doesn't reflect well on them either. In any event, I don't blame her for avoiding the inevitable revisiting of all that.
  16. It's the 50th, but I agree it is interesting he finally decided to attend. I didn't personally see it on Facebook, but apparently she administers the Little House Cast Reunion page. I think I misspoke and called it a group. That being said, I probably should have done some more investigating since I just saw it posted on Reddit.
  17. I know we've discussed the disappearance of Jonathan Gilbert before, but apparently he will be appearing at the cast reunion later this month. Per some discussion I saw on Reddit, Alison Arngrim confirmed this on her Facebook group. https://littlehousefestival.com/
  18. That makes way more sense, but I totally read his name as a Spanish-style Almanzo all the way through the books. LOL
  19. Agreed. I've even some speculation she may have been high on the clock. I'm honestly surprised it took as long as it did for someone to get hurt, based on every anecdote I've read about the set.
  20. Interestingly enough, the movie was so low budget that they actually hired her for two jobs--armorer and assistant prop master--and that was apparently a big part of the reason why they couldn't hire any other armorer. No other professional armorer would agree to that. But I don't think she's a scapegoat who was unfairly convicted either. She's the one who agreed to those terms. Apparently, when Baldwin would use the gun to point at people like he would have used his finger, rather than correcting him, she just told people to move out of his way. The detail that floored me the most was an anecdote about her sitting on the pebble-strewn ground loading a pistol. It took other people pointing out how unsafe that was if she accidentally got a rock in the gun for her to move the activity elsewhere.
  21. From what I've read, the scene didn't call for him to pull the trigger. He also, per behind the scenes footage, had repeatedly been using the guns to point at things. It's also been said he skipped whatever mandatory training they did have and kept rushing the armorer because he was impatient. It doesn't sound like he was a hapless victim of the set and was actively contributing to the safety issues himself.
  22. Everything I'd ever read about that set was awful, but the testimony from that trial really underscored what a disaster it was.
  23. Yeah I know a lady whose son is in prison. State versus federal, but she gets 4-hour visits monthly with him.
  24. Thank you! I have had a lot of fun over the years with my "hey, don't blame Arkansas for that facet of the Duggars" and "okay yes do blame Arkansas for that one" posts. 😂😂😂😂
