Not necessarily; Toronto is still a very popular place for films to shoot (along with LA, NY, Chicago, Orlando, etc.) Apparently it's cheaper, too. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Well, I'll likely use Boppity in a VH sketch at some point, could be this one. Remote-controlled roller skates: nice:D You sure you don't want to write outlines? You have lots of ideas, why not take a stab at it? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Why, if they're still on seemingly good terms with Jocelyn Stevenson, Susan Juhl, David Young, Robert Sandler, and Sugith Varughese, would they have Ahment Zappa write the screenplay? I have to wonder if his adoration of FR includes appreciation and awareness of it's subtlety and delicate...

Rodney Dangerfield: late Season One (circa Twiggy episode) Shari Lewis: mid-late Season Two (circa Elton John episode) Tom Jones: mid-late Season Two (circa Lou Rawls episode) Neil Diamond: mid Season Four (circa Dudley Moore episode) I just looked at them and they're all pretty short of...

Not sure which outline is next. Problem with the Leon Redbone and John Ritter outlines is I have no plotline for either, or most of the acts. It'll probably come down to which of my outlines are nearest to completion. My outlines with Rodney Dangerfield, Shari Lewis, Tom Jones, and Neil...

Well, Chris Langham DID "Hawaiian Cowboy" for his closing number on the show. Speaking of "What's New, Pussycat?", I wish they had had Tom Jones on the show. Of course, I've got an outline in the works that guest stars Tom Jones and opens with said number. Also on the subject of outlines...

He is, but I think he may be retired. I've been playing phone and email tag with his agent to do an interview with GP for MC (which he's apparently willing to do), and his agent described him as 'homebound'. Reminds me, I owe the agency another follow-up phone call. David "Gorgon Heap"...

Originally I was planning to include "Rainy Day People", "Sundown", and "Carefree Highway" in that order in my Gordon Lightfoot outline, but after giving "Song for a Winter's Night" a few listens and thinking it over, I think I agree with Jelly Man Kelly on your line-up. In fact, when I first...

Very popular choice. That would be the late Jackie Wright. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Male, female, and baby Koozebanians, trumpet-nosed Fazoob, fish-faced Fazoob, and Koozebanian Phoob. Boppity. -Englishman: Jerry -Englishman's wife: Louise -Red-haired Whatnot man: Jerry -Blond woman with pink sweater: Jerry -Blue mustached Whatnot man: Richard -Duck-billed woman...

It's just Fozzie playing a cop, sort of a prelude to "Bear on Patrol" if you will. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Kenneth Mars, 10/3/06 David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Tall, broad comic actor known especially for his foreign dialects and zany, over-the-top characters. He played Nazi playwright Franz Liebkind in Mel Brooks's first film "The Producers" (1968), has provided numerous animation voices, including King Triton in Disney's "The Little Mermaid", and...

Small tip on dialogue, something I've learned from watching FR, esp. Jerry Juhl's episodes: if you can find a funnier, more colorful, or more specific way of having a character say something, do it. It adds depth and richness to the writing, taking a line or a joke from the level of mere...

Guess I just like Baskerville. I'll use Rover Joe when it feels right. He looks like an old hound, the kind who lies on the floor (which is pretty much where they used him on TMS), so to me, it doesn't feel right to use him here. Baskerville looks more Muppety (for comic numbers), Muppy...

Possibly. Those are also opinions. Fact is, I don't share them personally. Like Mildred being too proper, for example- proper people are always on the victim end where comedy is concerned (think of all the Three Stooges pie fights, or Margaret Dumont getting punched by Harpo in "Animal...

Glad to hear you're on the mend, Mr. Nelson, and great to hear from you as always. I'll be praying for your speedy recovery. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Since it's not letting me edit, I'll do this as a separate post: Here's an add for VH- the patient is the Whatnot girl from AtD with the dark curly hair. Dr. Heap says he's going to use "a garlic recipe- er, remedy" on her. He does this by sprinkling garlic on her, instructing her to turn...

Quick change- let's say it's the gray Whatnot & duck-billed woman, both performed by Frank (as in the John Cleese & Jaye P. Morgan episodes). Behemoth would be performed by Dave, Beautiful Day & the Phoob by Richard, Green Scoff by Louise, Gorgon Heap by Jim, red-haired man & pink-sweatered...

One small edit: subtract the Electric Mayhem from the song backstage, and leave it just as David (as DuFarge) and the three girls. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
