She wept here, she slept here

I swear I'll do a real post sometime soon. I was gonna write about the navy bean soup I made this weekend and about Thanksgiving and about Milk, but I'm not feelin' it.

So, in the meantime, young master Phil had never heard of Ann Jillian but was familiar with her turn as the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland. So, for a trip down memory lane, I give you two intros 80's sitcoms that sorta kinda made me queer(er).

I'd heard of her, but I when it comes to her body of work I'm a total blank. What astonishes me the most is that I've never seen these shows before! I've watched a lot-and I mean a LOT- of TV in my day...I thought I'd seen it all!
The theme song to It's a Living is bad, like really difficult to listen to. If it's any indication I can see why it wasn't a more popular show.

Navy bean soup ftw!

Wow - I totally remember Its a Living! It was on the same night as The Golden Girls! But I'm fairly certain the piano player was a different guy.

I watched Babes in Toyland just last week to see if it was as good as I thought it was when I was a tot. It so plus-ultra wasn't. Really one of the worst movies ever made. It was kinda funny at 2X speed though.

I love that 2 of you were thinking of Ann Jillian in some way recently. And Earl, might I recommend one of Phil's favorites? Babes in Toyland with Keanu Reeves and Drew Barrymore.
Ain't my guy the coolest?
