Tabitha X 2

Tuesday, April 7th, 2015

tab1I had long looked forward to meeting Erin Murphy, who was best known as the actress who played Tabitha from 1966-1972 on the TV sitcom Bewitched. And when I finally did, it was no disappointment because she was every bit as nice as she was beautiful. During that occasion I also met the twin brothers who has portrayed Tabitha’s younger brother Adam. Many may not know that Erin Murphy also had a twin sister with whom she shared the Tabitha role for the first two years of their appearance on the show. Read the rest of this entry »

Millard Fillmore and Me

Monday, April 6th, 2015

mf13One has to fell a little sorry for the President of the United States whose legacies include being the most forgotten President, being the last president of his party (the Whigs), and arguably having the strangest name of any president. Our lucky number 13th President was the second of eight presidents to ascend to the office after the death of the incumbent president, in this case Zachary Taylor. He served less than three years from 1850-1853, and failed to be nominated for the next election. He did however then try to run again in the 1856 election in the “Know-Nothing” movement part, but came in third, carrying only one state. Read the rest of this entry »

Mallrat

london3It’s a shame that Jeremy London hasn’t done more professionally that has interested me, because he’s actually done quite a bit. I was never into I’ll Fly Away, Party of Five, or 7th Heaven TV series, but I now they’ve all had quite a following. My interest in him was pretty much restricted to his role in Mallrats in which he had second billing as T.S. Quint. He also starred in the epic Gods and Generals, which although generally panned by critics, is a massive prequel to the acclaimed Gettysburg. Yet it still goes back to Mallrats, and that’s why I made sure to meet him when he appeared at the Chiller Theatre show in Parsippany, New Jersey, on October 27, 2012. Read the rest of this entry »

Little Kisser

ms2I’m fairly certain that child actor Martin Stephens had appeared at previous Chiller Theatre events that I had been to, but I had always bypassed him. He had been one of the main kids in the sci-fi classic Village of the Damned, but I had never seen it so it didn’t mean anything to me. But less than a year before the Chiller on October 25, 2014, Carolyn and I had watched another classic scary film in which he had starred, The Innocents, a very creepy and scary film starring Deborah Kerr, the screenplay of whic had been co-written by Truman Capote.
