Psyche and the Mentalist are both shows that have detectives who are very good observers. People watching them think they have esp. Of the two show I like The Mentalist more. Simon Baker projects a wonderful benevolence. Psyche while it has the wonderful Dule Hill as Gus. The lead James Rodale just comes across as brash. I must it is nice to see TV shows that debunk esp rather than giving the character super powers.
As the reader of this blog I know I posted some dumb comments about the show Monk. I wanted to draw reader's attention to the latest episode which has the wonderful actress Gina Rowlands in it. She is wonderful. The show continues to be beautifully written. All of the regular cast is good.
This is a video pproduced by Ashton Krutcher and Demi Moore. It includes people from Hollywood making pledges. It could have been done in Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union.
In addition to Gypsy a great many shows have closed on Broadway. This suggest that people are tighten their belts and cutting unnecessary and frivolous spending
The musical Gypsy which has had a revival has closed. This one was with Pattie La Pone. La Pone played Momma Rose Gypsy's mother. I think musical actresses who reach a certain age get to do Momma Rose. Pattie was very good and won a Tony.

They'll be on CBS tomorrow. I want to honor George Jones, Morgan Freeman, and the Who. When they do the Barbra Streisand part if the praise gets too sickening I'll use my mute.
As I say on OL, I knew this was coming. I hope we will not have a lot of gloating from some circles but given the "class" act these people are some places will be gloat center.
I saw the original with Frank Sinatra and Janet Leigh. I have not seen the remake. The original is a good movie with Angela Lansberry's best role as Raymond's mother. Raymond's mother is the original mother from hell and Angela has great fun with the role. Lawrence Harvey is not as good as Raymond. Brainwashing would not work as successfully as it does in the movie. After John Kennedy's assassination Sinatra withdrew the film but at some point he allowed it to be shown. I can understand
