The gameshow To Tell The Truth is being revived. Who will be the classy, immaculately dressed Kitty Carlisle? Who will be the loud-mouthed comedienne Peggy Cass?

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

They should can the show. There are NO people these days as erudite, cultured and witty as those people were.

I want them to play old theme song from the '60s/'70s incarnation.

Groovy!

I wouldn't mind seeing Aisha Tyler as a panelist.

Nice list.

I was going to propose Betty Bacall for the Kitty Carlisle role.

You think, what do you want? You think, make a decision...

"Angela Lansbury should be the first special mystery guest."

But everybody knows Angela Lansbury. There's no disguising her.

I really wonder in this information age if they can get guests who would stump a panel.

I always loved on the original how they would spend a few seconds faking the audience out by one of the pretenders making a move like they were going to stand.

I also remember an episode where Kitty Carlisle had to excuse herself because she already knew the person they were interviewing. And with her social connections, I bet it was hard to find people she didn't know.

And when are they going to do a remake of Bowling For Dollars?

Bowling is going the way of the printed book and a 5 cent cigar.

It is another thing unfortunately destined for the scrap heap in our march of progress.

So the printed book is flourishing and they still have five cent cigars. Bowling is really thriving these days. How many bookstores have closed including the big B/N near Lincoln Center. E books are, unfortunately, the wave of the future. Methinks the name applies to you. Wrong on the spending time alone remark. I am not pessimistic . I just no longer care about things I once did for a variety of reasons.

The bowling remark was prompted by Goth's remark re Bowling For Dollars

I loved all those shows when I was a kid.

And I love bowling, too. I still bowl occasionally. And every time I do, the lanes are packed with real, live people. Hmmm...

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
