I WANT MY RTN

Click here to see the web site for a new cable network called RTN. It puts TVLand to shame. I would love to watch old epiosdes of Night Gallery, Ironside, The Bold Ones, and It Takes a Thief. Of course, Time Warner here in New York City doesn’t offer it…yet.

LUNA LANDING

See below for a wonderful tribute to Film Fatale BarBara Luna one of the most versatile and busiest TV actresses of the 60s/70s. Included are clips from her memorable turns on The Wild Wild West, Mission: Impossible, Star Trek, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Below are some of Luna’s remarks about working on some of these TV shows:

The Wild Wild West
“Bob Conrad was adorable—very macho and very cute. We laughed a lot. I was married to Doug McClure at the time. I think because we were all buddies it made a big difference. In fact, he used to date Doug’s first wife who is one of my closest friends. I really liked Ross Martin too. He was a very caring human being. When he said, ‘Good morning. How are you?’ You knew he really meant it.”

Mission: Impossible
“I was personally disappointed in the episode because it was too much of me. But most of my scenes were with Martin Landau [Rollin Hand] who I loved working with. He is so funny—he’s Mel Brooks. I am friendly with him to this day and I tell him that all of the time.”
