'How I Completely Accidentally Serendipitously Became A Teenage Sitcom Star':

huffposttv:

While nothing I have done has reached the popularity of The Facts of Life, I have continued to work with some of the most talented people … And while I won’t “tell all” ever, I am going to tell you a bit of my real facts of my life.

It’s been 25 years since “The Facts of Life” ended its original run. Mindy Cohn — Natalie Green on the series — blogged about how the show changed her life. It’s a great read for fans of TV.

unwillingadventurer:

The original TARDIS interior.

We like to refer to it as a flat-pack kind of TARDIS because this nifty set is taken apart and put back whenever and wherever it wants. If there’s not enough room in the studio for the whole thing, they could just put up one wall and the console etc. Or seen in the bottom picture William Hartnell is even pretending to pull levers on the console that isn’t there. This meant more space for other sets.

And it’s shot from all angles and directions which gives the effect that there is a lot more space than there actually is. The doors can be shot on all sides. One thing we particularly love is that the doors do not match the outside doors. The classic TARDIS interior did not give any hint of the ordinary police box exterior, and the doors would open with a flick of a switch.

By the end of season two, you could see how battered the interior looked from being shifted about and put up and taken apart all the time. Some of the roundels looked punctured. But despite the lack of money, the ship always managed to look alien like, and also large enough to be a convincing travelling machine and a home. It had beautiful decor with interesting objects, old fashioned things that contrasted so well with the white focus, and the banks of computers and scanner screen.

Other rooms in the TARDIS were the bedrooms with fold out orthopedic beds, and a sitting room, and a food machine station, and a modest (actually quite small) wardrobe.

The original designers did not have anything to go on, they created this stunning design from scratch and it suits the first Doctor so well. The wandering alien in Edwardian dress living and drifting in a futuristic space ship with his granddaughter. They did such a terrific job.

Mayerling to get DVD release

From Films Around the World:Posted: April 29th, 2013

Films Around the World, Inc. is delighted to confirm that the Audrey Hepburn/Mel Ferrer MAYERLING will indeed be released on DVD in 2013. After several years of discussion, Audrey Hepburn’s sons, and Mel Ferrer’s widow, have authorized its distribution by us.

We have digitally remastered it from the original kinescope negative, and upgraded the new master using the latest enhancement software and expertise; it will be the first release on our new “Mr. FAR-W Video” silver and blue label, initially available through Amazon.com.

The first public exhibition since the original (and only) live television broadcast, in 1957, will be as the closing event at the Stadtmuseum Munchen/Filmmeuseum’s Audrey Hepburn Retrospective, at 9PM on June 24, 2013.

We mastered iMAYERLING in two versions — one with the original commercials, and one without them. Each version can either be played straight through, or by the four acts of the original broadcast. The masters have been delivered to both Amazon and the Stadtmuseum; check on our website or directly with Amazon for the availability of the DVDs.

Harry Owens Hawaiian TV show 1958. Hilo Hattie performs a song with some other woman and 3 guys. Then a cute beer commercial.

I was looking at an album I was not sure I wanted to buy or not it was a Hawaii music with the name Hilo Hattie. “My Hawaii”.

I looked up the name on the net search and found this video.

And here is some info for you if you want to know who Hilo Hattie is.

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of ‘disaster,’ I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world.”
