Question: What's a "first-ever vinyl reissue?" Is that like a first-ever re-run?
I'm asking for a friend.

Bela Lugosi was hella scary in Prometheus, too. You know, as long as we're going to credit him with films he never made.
Also: Prometheus sucked.

I'm still holding out hope that Barnabas and Julia will get together, even though both actors are no longer among the living and the show hasn't been on the air since 1971. These are totally realistic expectations, imo.

That was a very strange week.

I might have squeeed when seeing that Dark Shadows image at the top of the page.

Speaking of "E. Bloom," Blue Oyster Cult's song "The Subhuman" would have fit well on this list.

I loathe Keith Morrison and his hard-boiled Garrison Keillor shtick. The only thing his delivery lacks is a soap opera music sting at the end of each monologue.

There's a theory that THE FLINTSTONES is that ground-level "impoverished class system."

I always suspected that Iggy Pop and Lou Reed were having a secret contest in the '80s to see who could produce the worst music.

“The Original Wrapper" is terrible, but it's not even close to being the worst song on MISTRIAL.

Hey, can we not drag Dark Shadows into this?

You're not wrong. But, I've never thought much of Ellis as a storyteller, though. He throws a lot of ideas at the page, but they never have much heart because his characters are so thin. Reading Ellis is less like reading a story, and more like overhearing part of a conversation ABOUT a story.

Warren Ellis wants to be Alan Moore when he grows up.

Psycho II is actually pretty good.

John Karlen won an Emmy for his performance, as well. His acceptance speech is actually kinda delightful: http://youtu.be/upXEjp8u-wM
