Farrah Fawcett, RIP

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

But then, MJ died, and everyone forgot.

So it seems...

I liked the fact that MJ died so close to the deadline of all the entertainment shows that none of them could change their all Farah format.

CNN's bashfest of MJ was totally rude. They went easier on Mahmoud Ahmadinejad than the King of Pop.

CNN = #Fail.

Was there any dude, anywhere, that didn't have that magical poster hangin' on their wall in the Seventies?

It's not that I didn't find Farrah fetching, but, hey, every teenaged boy had his favorite "angel," and mine was Kate Jackson (although I didn't have any posters of her in my bedroom, either).

Truth be known, I think that, while all three ladies were clearly quite comely, Jacklyn Smith was the prettiest.

I was in Junior High school during the Farrah/Charlie's Angels craze.
Out of the bunch, I thought Kate Jackson was the prettiest.
But, to a 12 or 13 year old boy, they all looked almost old enough to be my mom, and I didn't want to go there.
I was more into the Maureen McCormick-Kristy McNichol-Tatum O'Neal actress types back then.
Don't forget Kathy Coleman and Caroline Ellis (with her pink miniskirt and the antennas)
And Molly Ringwald absolutely ruled in the early 80s.

I'm just sayin' ...
