HOWEVER, EXCEPT FOR THE SEX, TODAY JOAN WOULD OF LOVED TO BE IN , "IT'S COMPLICATED"!

AND PROBABLY GOT IN A GOOD LAUGH OR TWO WATCHING,"THE MOTHER'S IN LAW' , TO SEE HER FRIEND AND "MILDRED PIERCE" CO-STAR, EVE ARDEN.

AND HAD A FAMOUS LACERATION ON 'THE LUCY SHOW'!

BUT AS WE ALL ALL KNOW , SHE REALLY SHINED IN ,"NIGHT GALLERY'!

AND SHE WOULD WATCH 'DARK SHADOWS' TO CATCH A PERFORMANCE BY HER OLD FRIEND, THE OTHER JOAN , BENNETT THAT IS.

AND SHE WAS SET TO APPEAR ON A ' THE NAME OF THE GAME', IN SOMETHING CALLED LIKE , 'EXECUTIVE ORDER 1971' BUT ACCORDING TO A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE [ SEE COMMENTS] IT DIDN'T QUITE WORK OUT THAT WAY...CHECK OUT THE COMMENT SYMBOL!


AFTER 'MEDICAL CENTER' , JOAN CALLED IT A NIGHT, SHE USED TO INSIST THAT SHE HAD BE HOME AT A CERTAIN TIME OR SHE WOULD MISS HER FAVORITE TELEVISION PROGRAMS.

ON A PERSONAL NOTE , THIS IS MY FAVORITE TELEVISION THEME OF ALL TIME...JOAN LIKED IT TOO, BEING FRIENDS WITH NATALIE [WOOD] AND RJ [ ROBERT WAGNER] , IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW.

JOAN PROBABLY WATCHED"5-O" AS WELL.

ALL I CAN SAY IS,"OMFG!'

HERE'S A DUSTY LITTLE CURIOUSITY...

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE INTRO

METHINKS THIS WAS ONE OF JOAN'S FAVORITE TELEVISION PROGRAMS

WHAT HOLIDAY THEMED BLOG WOULD BE COMPLETE WITHOUT THIS HISTORIC RECORDING?

SEEMS TO ME THAT CAPUCINE INSPIRED JC WITH HER GLAMOROUS LOOK...

FROM THE FILM,'WALK ON THE WILD SIDE'..VERY COOL!

CAPUCINE AND BARBARA STANWYCK, YOU DO THE MATH...

OR PERHAPS THE MAGNIFICENT, CAPUCINE, OH CAPUCINE!

DOLORES GRAY LOOKS LIKE THE INSPIRATION FOR THE 'THIERRY MUGLAR WOMAN'!

WHAT A LUSH, RICH CADILLAC OF A SONG, AS INTERPUTTED BY THAT DIVINE DOLORES GRAY...

THAT FANTABULOUS DOLORES GRAY!

ENJOY!

THIS PERKED ME UP A BIT AS I HAVE BEEN A BIT SLEEPY AS OF LATE.

I DISCOVERED DOLORES GRAY IN 'DESIGNING WOMAN' AND SHE AND IT ARE FABULOUS!

AND ON THE SUBJECT OF THE OPPOSITE SEX, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO THE ONE AND ONLY, DOLORES GRAY!

ONE CAN IMAGINE JOAN AS, 'CRAWFORD' BAMBOOZLEING AN ENTRANCE INTO AN UPPER CRUST HOLLYWOOD PARTY , WEARING A GOWN THAT ANNOUNCES HER ARRIVAL FROM ONE END OF THE BALLROOM TO THE OTHER!

THIS NUMBER SEEMS VERY 'NEW YEARS EVEISH', I THINK JOAN WOULD OF APPROVED OF THIS CLIP AS WELL.

OH TO HAVE JOAN CRAWFORD ON YOUR SIDE. THE WOMAN REALLY COULD KEEP THOSE MEAN BASTARDS IN LINE!

JOAN REGRETTED MAKING,'THIS WOMAN IS DANGEROUS', WHAT A TITLE, BUT I LOVE THIS SCENE.

I MUST CONFESS, AS MUCH AS I DISPISE THAT CHRISTINA CREATURE, THE FILM ,'MOMMIE DEAREST', IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST HORROR FILMS I HAVE EVER SEEN. THIS IS A LINE THAT WORKS WELL IN REAL LIFE!
