Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Punishingly Intricate

I loved last night's episode.

It was the funniest since they've been back I think!

Although I almost had to ff through where Marshall was attempting to scream at the waiter. But then it got turned around. Of course!

I changed to the baseball game for part of that, but I caught the twist, which was hilarious and just what everyone is customer service probably longs to do.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Huh. I just watched the second episode of Friends and they had a different actress as Carol (Ross' ex-wife). Anita Barone. Then she was recast with Jane Sibbett.

Nothing's every going to top the weirdness of The New Darrin on Bewitched, especially since Dick Sargent did sort of kind of look like Dick York. Plus they were both Dick.

Not that I saw it in real time, but it was in syndication when I was growing up and definitely flipped my worldview. On the Partridge Family they were more blatant and recast a brunette boy with a blonde one after the first season.

Cool points though to Bunuel who did it on purpose, casting two different actresses in his version of Wuthering Heights and alternating them without warning.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I did not know that. After the Pythons' treatment I had no desire to actually see W. H. for real but now I kinda do.

My favorite actor swap was on Roseanne. I loved how they would subtly refer to it from time to time.
