Looks like a George Segal sculpture in Bobby Gentry's set - creepy concept.

Oh shit. Robbie Benson. Now I gotta go rent that damn movie.

And all I have to say about the cbc production is ...acting! (That's some sexy hip action on Mama.)

Thanks, L.M.! I love that song. I can't get over the literal imagery in the Tammy Wynette version. It reminds me of Sunday School slides of the Jesus story. My fave is the virus that papa caught.

I like the plate of food for what's happened to your appetite?

I love fan videos.

terry david mulligan intro on the 'craptastic' CBC version a shocking blast from the past. He was never that young. Tremendous.

I had the same Robbie Benson reaction that Sally had.

OK, you do realise that you can get them into synch ... sort of ... if you play them all at once .... creeped out even more.

My brother (joester) once told me my hair looked like Robbie Benson. That was bad, but then my friend B. Smiley told me my hair looked like Sammy Maudlin.
