EVENTS:

Thursday, the 5th: "On the Air" (David Lynch, 1992)

We're gonna show all 7 episodes (they're 30 minutes each) and we will start at 9 p.m.

Wikipedia: "On The Air (1992) was an ABC sitcom created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. In the USA only three episodes were aired, although seven were filmed; In the Netherlands all 7 were aired by VPRO."

Many of the cast and crew from Twin Peaks return!

Lynchnet:"The year is 1957. A new program entitled "The Lester Guy Show" is debuting on the Zoblotnick Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC). Most of the cast is nuts, the crew is incompetent and everything that could go wrong always does. Of course, this makes the show a hit.

While mixing the sound for an episode of the second season of Twin Peaks, Lynch was hit with a sudden inspiration. "It just came into my head, the idea of people trying to do something successful and having it all go wrong."

Following the initial success of Twin Peaks, David Lynch and Mark Frost were hot properties in Television. When they approached ABC with the idea for "On the Air," the network was eager to take them up on the offer. The show itself was a half-hour absurdist comedy featuring many of the cast and crew from Twin Peaks. The pilot tested very well, and six more episodes were ordered. However, by the time it came to scheduling the On the Air, things with Twin Peaks had already fallen apart, and the network was no longer eager to work with Lynch. "

BOOKS:

"Escapade" by Walter Satterthwait

Great book on our "borrowing only"-shelf!

Satterthwait.com: "Satterthwait successfully brings actual historical characters (Lizzie Borden, Oscar Wilde) to life. In this intriguing puzzle, he pairs Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with Harry Houdini (and who could beat that combination when it comes to a locked-room murder?). It's 1921, at a house party in an English country manor, and the host is found dead in a room from which it is seemingly impossible for the killer to have fled."

Read the first two chapters of Escapade

EVENTS:

Tonight: "Oh! What a Lovely War" (1969)

"A movie about the First World War based on a stage musical of the same name, portraying the "Game of War" and focusing mainly on the members of one family (last name Smith) who go off to war. Much of the action in the movie revolves around the words of the marching songs of the soldiers, and many scenes portray some of the more famous (and infamous) incidents of the war, including the assassination of Duke Ferdinand, the Christmas meeting between British and German soldiers in no-mans-land, and the wiping out by their own side of a force of Irish soldiers newly arrived at the front, after successfully capturing a ridge that had been contested for some time.
