![]() ![]() Saturday Night Fever and Grease worked, if you like those movies, because of John Travolta, not in spite of him. No, his movies were driven by his personality. They weren’t Jaws or Poseidon Adventure or Star Wars, spectacles where it didn’t really matter who was the star. I mean, this was a young, young actor whose first two movies were just massive hits. Now, through the years I’d heard of Moment by Moment, and I knew it first as the movie that derailed Travolta. Darcy O’Brien will likely see this fate, especially because one of the books he wrote was the novelization of the Tomlin and Travolta vehicle, Moment by Moment. Just as often, I then shelve the books and never read them. Note: O’Brien didn’t write this, but quoted Benedict Kiely.Īs is usually the case with me, when I freak out over a book that is fairly rare, I tend to try and find every single book that author has ever written. If that doesn’t sum it up, I don’t know what does. It also has the greatest epitaph I’ve ever read: The book takes the young man all over Southern California, through wrecked mansions and studio backlots, to a decadent Europe, and it witnesses his own parents’ rise and fall and fall and hilarious fall. Murnau’s great silent film Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans. It’s an autobiographical novel–O’Brien truly was the son of actors George O’Brien and Marguerite Churchill, the former the star of F. Maybe my Grandpa styled the hair of a character actress or two, or some aging starlet from the lost years of silent film.ĭarcy O’Brien’s novel is about a teenager who endures two parents, divorced, who used to be stars in the silent era. In 1978, I visited him, watched a Dodgers game, and got an autograph from a clearly irritated Tom Bosley. He used to style the hair of Kay O’Malley, who owned the Los Angeles Dodgers. I love to read about Los Angeles and Hollywood because my Mom is from that area, near Pasadena to be more specific, San Gabriel to put the pin in the map, so I often wonder what it might have been like to grow up there, with her teaching and us visiting my Grandfather, who had a posh hair styling salon in San Marino. ![]() There are some books that you just can’t get enough of, and this splendidly sordid and short tale of a Hollywood upbringing matched my own true love of Eve Babitz’s similarly sexy and wayward Southern California Bildungsromans. But I like to read, and last summer, during the pandemic, came across a magnificent little confection by Darcy O’Brien called A Way of Life Like Any Other. In fact, I hate those movies–the first is really misogynist (like, that’s a strong theme) and Reaganistic, the second just dumb nostalgia with shite music. I can’t say I like Saturday Night Fever or Grease, because I don’t. But who thought to take Lily Tomlin, so great in Nashville and other films (not to mention theater and TV) and pair her with that dancing heartthrob John Travolta? I remember the film being in the background of my cinematic consciousness in 1978, for I was in Southern California (where Moment takes place) that year, Grease was huge, kids I know were batty about Travolta and then… this? I get the appeal of making a piece of shit like 1967’s Doctor Doolittle–a popular, albeit racist children’s “classic” gets the bloated musical roadshow treatment, and voila! Money in the bank, usually. Moment by Moment has always intrigued me simply because its very existence seems so strange. So how did I end up watching, with my friend Tom, the wretched Moment by Moment, starring Lily Tomlin and John Travolta? As someone who does not find any pleasure in watching “they’re so bad it’s good” flicks or enduring the rarely funny (to me) Mystery Science Theater 3000, I usually end up avoiding these turkeys. We tend to avoid terrible books and TV shows–perhaps books are too long (though you could read The Bridges of Madison County in two hours, and it’s up there with the worst) and TV shows date too quickly? Maybe it’s because there are so many terrible films–every year bombs that are dropped from Hollywood’s zeppelin onto a (usually) suspecting public: only the greatest gluttons for punishment endure The Conqueror, Doctor Doolittle, At Long Last Love, Clan of the Cave Bear, or John Carter from Mars, to name but a few. I’ve always found it baffling how much people love awful movies. Moment by Moment (1978), written and directed by Jane Wagner.

![]() We live in a VERY small town, so, as I said, most people know about Leela and know it’s just the two of us here. She also LOVES the local firefighters who worked with me so she wouldn’t be afraid of them if something were to happen again-whenever she sees the lights or hears the sirens, she bounces from window to window & wakes me up if I’m asleep. Between her beginnings, (she STILL “asks” to be rocked sometimes), the fact it’s always me and her, AND I trained her to “help” me-in case I fall or need help in another room, she’ll bring me her phone. The kids all talk to her every morning, and some afternoons and most adults around here know Leela’s name, but not mine. Obviously, she made it and because I’m disabled and rarely leave the house, (although in warm weather, she LOVES putting her “pretty dress” on and going across the street to the park where she plays with kids.and drives local dogs NUTS! She LOVES giving kids hugs and kisses and I had to put a cat tree in my front window where there’s a bus stop. I was told Leela wouldn’t make it and basically lived in my rocking chair for over a month, giving her IV Fluids, tube feeding her, and rocking & singing to her. I think Leela is super special though because when a friend brought her to me as a VERY sick abandoned 3-4wk old baby-I had JUST been released from 4 weeks in the hospital, (heart attack), and had lost everything in a fire just 2 months before-including my 9yr old silver kitty. They had quite the childhood as I co-founded a wildlife rescue & rehab back home, long before they were even born. But my kids would be the first to tell you-I’ve ALWAYS had “strange” animals…to put it mildly. As a Vet Tech since 1978, I’ve known a LOT of cats over the years-although Leela is only my 2nd indoor only kitty. ![]() Leela is a VERY strange, but VERY LOVING Ginger. □□ (long story)Īnyways, back to mice.she also likes chipmunks (“big Mousey”) that got into the house last year and they batted nuts back and forth in my kitchen. I sent some of her Chinese friends pictures on twitter, but don’t remember if I posted them to her twitter yet-she has a LOT of fans in China and they send her things so often, my mailman knocks on the door to announce “Another delivery from China for Princess Leela”. We had this same argument a few days ago, after I first put it together, and I was FaceTiming my daughters-who were in hysterics. ![]() We’ve had some arguments about this-yes, Leela argues with me either audibly or whispering her mews & meows, and stomping her paw if it goes on for more than a minute.in fact, we just had one a little while ago when she wanted her dinner on my new over-the bed table. Leela is 5 and ever since she was a kitten I.’ve watched with awe at her playing with them, (she LOVES putting one in a small box and dragging the poor thing around the house!), feeding them-bringing them her cookies, napping with them.and I HAD to draw the line with her gently carrying them in her mouth like a baby, and hopping up on OUR (HER) bed. My Leela is the same way! In the winter, we have small field mice come into the house to get warm. ![]()
![]() ![]() Some complain that Sesame Street is not what it used to be, but keep in mind its own show anymore. Elmo focuses on one subject to help kids understand what Elmo is inquisitive about on the day's segment. In the meantime Elmo encourages to learn about all kinds of things like Mail, Music, computers etc. Elmo's World: This guy should get his very own show and I am not joking. Spanish Word of the Day: Rosita along with Grover, Big Bird, and others on the street teach a Spanish word in a way that can be understood. The clips after Cookie Monster's attempt to teach letters will help viewers learn the sounds and recognition of the letters themselves. The problem is Cookie eventually gives in to his instincts and eats the cookie. Letter of the Day: Cookie Monster is given the honor of hosting this segment by showing cookies that have a letter on them. For those who complain about outing Snuffy this segement gives a fantasy friend to Baby Bear, and he is not going to try to prove that Hero Guy is real. ![]() Don't expect this to turn into a 'Big Bird's imaginary friend' running gag. Hero Guy: If Monster Clubhouse was not done in the Monstertime segment, then we see a sketch with Baby Bear and his imagery creation Hero Guy, in which they both learn about art, imagination, and problem solving. ![]() When Ernie is finally found then a sketch and/or song with Ernie is featured (sometimes with partner Bert). If a box is found and does not have Ernie inside then a clip or segment is featured ranging from a special song or a kid that does something special, after which the game continues. The game begins a park and when BB is transported to other virtual environments and perform certain skills in order to find the box (memory recall, singing a song, doing a certain skill etc.). The catch is it may not be the first or second boxes that contain Ernie. Journey to Ernie: Big Bird and the viewers play a virural reality game in trying to find Ernie who hides in a box that resembles his red, yellow, and blue striped shirt with his rubber duckie in front of it. The stories teach everything from cooperation, friendship, feelings, problem solving etc. It seems that preschoolers don't like things interrupted but other things and messages (commercials or not). Street Story: The story of the day is now done in one complete segment rather than scatted throughout the whole show as it was done in the past. The segment is followed up with live-action and animated sketches which help the viewers give a better understanding of the numbers. Number of the Day: The Count hosts this segment (who else could do it better on Sesame Street) in which he uses a special counting organ to find what the number of the day is. Monster Time: In this segment either shorts with the classic Sesame Street monsters are shown (Grover, Elmo, Rosita etc.) or a new feature called "Monster Clubhouse" in which four new monsters give preschoolers a crash course in what goes on in a typical preschool day. Greeting of the day: Big Bird and the Sesame Street neighbors' great the viewers and either tell jokes play a game and/or sing a song. The show is now blocked into these segments in order. Sesame Street really got a makeover for its 33rd season, mainly because of the competitive environment of Pre-School TV, and how they learn things in this day in age. The Hillstrands worked on a TV special for Discovery titled ‘Hillstranded,’ but creative differences soured the captain’s relationship with the network. However, Andy has chosen to remain on the sidelines, likely due to the differences with the show’s producers and the stress associated with filming the job. Johnathan eventually made his return to the show in season 16, and so did the Time Bandit (season 17). It would seem that, like his brother, Andy has also effectively retired. Neither the Time Bandit nor any of its other crew members returned to show in the following season. ![]() He appeared in every season since his debut in season 2 until season 13, after which brother Johnathan decided to retire. He instead looked after duties such as deck sorting and counting the crabs acting as a strong second-in-command.ĭuring the Opilio Crab season, Andy took the helm and made most of the decisions on deck. During the King Crab season, Andy mostly took the backseat and allowed Johnathan to do the heavy lifting of the captain’s role. ![]() What Happened to Andy Hillstrand From Deadliest Catch?Īndy Hillstrand entered the Bering Sea-based reality series ‘Deadliest Catch’ in its second season alongside his brother, Johnathan Hillstrand, aboard their family fishing vessel, FV Time Bandit. Here’s everything we know about Andy Hillstrand’s whereabouts. If you are wondering what happened to the co-captain of FV Time Bandit and what he is up to these days, you’ve come to the right place. ![]() Given that crab fishing runs in the blood of the Hillstrand family members, Andy’s prolonged absence from the show has paved the way for some chatter among fans.
