I shall squee about a couple of things. First, it's definitely true that Mike Connors answers fans quickly! I sent him a letter last week and got a picture back this week! He sent a fun picture of Joe Mannix in a tense situation. He seems to be standing on a balcony or fence. LOL.

And Amazon just released a disc of The Ghost and Mrs. Muir TV show! It's DVD-R, but finally, at long last, it's some of the episodes officially available! There's seven on it, which is pretty good. Maybe if this disc does well, they'll release more, or even season sets! Please buy it, people, if you like this series or are curious about it! Earlier this year, Australia actually got season sets, so I'm hoping for some action in other parts of the world. This seems to be the first indication of something happening!

I just love that show; it is so cute and really feel-good. It's not mindlessly silly and stupid like some comedies; it has real heart. And Charles Nelson Reilly is hilarious as the nephew. I waited years to be able to see this show; I think I learned of its existence in 2000 or thereabouts. It took I'm not sure how many years before I finally saw some of it and I've still been waiting to own it and have nice, sharp prints to watch. Now I can finally start to do that!

Of course, it was because of Charles Nelson Reilly that I learned of the show's existence in the first place and had an interest in seeing it. He's been special to me ever since around 1997 when I really started taking note of his character in All Dogs Go to Heaven. He and that movie got me through some rough times back then, when Grandma was in the hospital and we'd be going there multiple times a week. I always looked forward to seeing the film at least once a week. I've never forgotten that, or him, and I like to look up his guest-spots on TV shows whenever I can. He gives me such a good laugh on shows such as Car 54, Where Are You? and The Patty Duke Show and of course, game shows. Match Game is hilarious and I greatly enjoyed watching him on Celebrity Bowling on MeTV's website this week. They switch episodes weekly and they had two with him this week.
