RANKIN/BASS' THE NEW ADVENTURES OF PINOCCHIO





RANKIN/BASS' THE TALES OF THE WIZARD OF OZ


Ronald doesn't make kids eat the wrong foods. People need to accept responsibility for their own eating habits.
Do you remember when NICK-AT-NITE was watchable...about 20 years ago? I think it was even the highest rated station on cable at the time. The new, younger programmers came in and ruined it. ME TV in Chicago is the way NICK was 20 years ago.

Both on March 22

Out now..
March 8

April 12th

TONY PETERS

c. 1965 RANKIN/BASS PRODUCTIONS/RICK GOLDSCHMIDT ARCHIVES



Ol' pals Marshall Crenshaw and Jesse Valenzuela (of GIN BLOSSOMS) will join on March 7th at The Rhythm
Room in Phoenix, each performing an intimate evening of hits. Among other
Jesse / Marshall collaborations, the pair and Robin co-wrote Gin's super smash "'Til I Hear It From You."

From Jesse:

This will be a fun show, and I've always loved performing and hanging with Marshall. He's wonderful guy, we are fans of each others, and we always have some great laughs! Ya can't beat that

Jeff Bridges and THE LAST UNICORN



www.moviesblog.mtv.com/2011/02/18/the-last-unicorn-dvd/
"I got a call one day from Jeff Bridges, and he said, 'I understand you're doing 'The Last Unicorn,' and my friend Rene Auberjonois is in it. He's playing the Skull, and I want to be in it. Do you have anything for me?'" director Jules Bass reveals in the clip. "I said, well, there's Prince Lír. We haven't cast him yet.' He said, 'I'll do it either for nothing or scale or whatever you're paying Rene.' And I said, 'You're hired!'"
Took in a cool UNTOUCHABLES tonight on ME TV...after watching THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES on TCM! Forgot how good that Academy Award winning film was!

Drinks anyone? My pal SHAG
