*"My favorite Zorro of all time is Guy Williams! (SNIP) Give me the old-fashioned charms of the Disney t.v. program."* - Bronxgirl48

 

Let me pop in to let you know that I recently watched *The Sign Of Zorro*, a film-length Guy Williams Zorro "feature", for *free* through the On Demand listings for Time-Warner Cable.

 

I don't know if you have Time-Warner Cable with access to the same options or not. And I understand that the T-W "On Demand" interface is much different in NYC, but in LA, the Disney materials are included in a section labelled "Disney Family Movies". It is part of the "Premium Channels" listings even though there is no cost to view the materials listed there. I stumbled on these offerings a few weeks ago and been able to watch *Fantasia*, *Saludos Amigos* and *Make Mine Music* - all for free! Maybe you can find them in NYC too?

 

Or, at least "browse" all titles for *Sign Of Zorro*- if you are a T-W cable subscriber. It is listed as being available until July 23rd in LA.

Hi, Kyle! I live in Boca Raton, not the Bronx anymore, and we have Comcast, where I don't subscribe to the premium channels or On Demand, any of that -- too many choices, lol (because as a Libra I go crazy trying to make decisions) I figure if I want to watch Disney I'll just go to YouTube! I know, it's not the perfect option, but it fills the bill for me now.

I've probably seen Philip Tonge in other movies, but for me he will always be Julian Shellhammer of the toy department.

 

Harry Hayden! So that's his name! I've seen the face in zillions of B-movies, including I think some horror ones, too. He plays a lot of druggists, also.

*"Hi, Kyle! I live in Boca Raton, not the Bronx anymore..."*

 

Silly me. Are you sure you don't want to be "Bocagirl"?

 

Well, maybe someone else will find the info useful. (And I don't subscribe to any "premium" channels either. I just have a digital package necessary for "On Demand" viewing.) *The Sign Of Zorro* was a fun way to waste 90 minutes.

I guess I'll always be a Bronx girl in my heart, even though I'm now longing to spend the rest of my days (and nights) on the Riviera...

 

I lurve your Zorro info, Kyle, and that you took the time to stop at my silly thread. Don't be a stranger!

All-France House Hunters International Alert tonight at 10:30 p.m . EST! I'm sure many of the episodes will be repeats, perhaps not, and may include the one where a girl buys a studio there that's about 90 square feet. "But I'm in Paris!"

LOL!! Bennett Cerf: "Do you ever use any accessories in your act?"

 

I remember Wally mainly from that TZ episode about a computer named Agnes who falls in love with him, ha!

 

On to France -- let the drooling begin! (even with the teeny-tiny apartments)

What the---? I could have sworn the HHI's this evening were all-France, then I see Indonesia in the second eppy. Blast it!

It was such a no-brainer that the tall, aristocratic, blonde, lanky, Princeton architecture major (I was pea-green with envy, and I just bet she's the type who can eat all that French pastry and not gain a pound) was going to pick the Right Bank "bomb site". Of course she didn't mind having the extensive reno done; it was right up her alley -- suspiciously seemed that she had prior experience with house flipping. I thought they were going to re-air the one with the California mother and daughter who were investing in the Paris closet. (I remember the daughter chose the one where she had to climb a ladder to get to the bed chamber)

 

Arlene Francis has always creeped me out. Don't ask me why. She appears "charming" and "vivacious" on that program but there's something about her...

I remember that one where the daughter had to climb the ladder, to that bedroom that was kind of hidden away up above....

 

I didn't think the architecture major was going to pick the Right Bank one at all, she seemed so negative when they toured it, all she could talk about was how 'it's not on the left bank'. I would have picked it immediately, if I had 2 or 3 mil to spend on housing. The first one looked like a bordello with that purple living room, but the bones were good. The 3rd one was ghastly... you might as well live in Detroit with an apartment like that, and over a disco!

 

I thought Sue Sue was talking about Wally...

Guys, I'm recovering today from Andrzej Zulawski's POSSESSION. To quote Sandy Dennis in WAOVW, "My, my, my, my, my......."

 

I read that Isabelle Adjani had a nervous breakdown after doing this role.

 

 

I can believe it.

This program has been found out as super-phony -- all the "hunters" have already picked out their houses well in advance.

 

 

I actually liked #1, and thought the purple walls looked chic. #3 was tres Provencal from within, but, yes, I would never live over a bar/disco.

 

 

Just when I couldn't be more envious of that woman, at the end they show her beautiful golden retriever. Of course.
