So, like with radio drama Afghanada, my love of scripted series also extends out of my usual old-school t.v. realm into the web. Here, I’m talkin’ Seeking Simone. I got hooked on Seeking Simone about a year ago after seeing a piece on it on afterellen.com – and I was…

Alumnae Theatre Company had their closing night performance of Polly Teale’s After Mrs. Rochester on Friday night. Here’s more on the talkback (that happened after the October 2 matinée), from Alumnae’s blog, which I believe was posted by Tina McCulloch: http://alumnaetheatre.wordpress.com/2011/10/03/after-mrs-rochester-oct-2-talkback/

Went to see Moneyball yesterday after my pal Ellen Green recommended it – and I was glad I did. I’m not a huge baseball fan, but I do enjoy the occasional live game and go with friends – who are really into the game – to see the Jays play…

When cast member Tina McCulloch, also now Alumnae’s bloggergal, mentioned in a post that After Mrs. Rochester featured accents, sex and fight scenes – she had me at “accents.” Well, actually, she had me at “sex” – especially since this is an all-gal cast, with two actors playing an assortment…

Continue reading →: Two of my favourite programs
Before I go on my merry way tonight/this weekend, I’d like to give a shout out to two of my favourite programs. One is a radio drama and the other is on t.v.: Afghanada and Lost Girl. Not much of a radio listener (except for an hour of Nocturne on Classical 96.3…

Continue reading →: More t.v. – endings & beginnings
During a mostly busy weekend, when I was hardly home, I watched my PVR recording of the final episode of All My Children. WARNING: Spoiler alert. And I have to say WTF?! There was a gathering of the well-heeled folk of Pine Valley, including folks recently (and miraculously) risen from…
