I just picked it up on the Amazon Kindle store. It's only $5, and is jampacked with interviews. The closest thing we'll ever get to a Tom Shales-style tome a la the wonderful Live From New York, his expose on Saturday Night Live.

I've only just begun reading, but it is a hell of a book, and very worth your time. Buy it! It's five bucks!

Thanks.

I'd read some of the excerpts on the book's Facebook page months ago, and they've got a lot of the original cast and crew there. (Agnes Nixon: "Ellen hates me now, but we were very good friends.")

Agnes Nixon: Ellen told me a story once about dancing at Roseland when she was younger -- the man she was dancing with asked her if she was an American Indian, and she said, “No, I’m an American black.” She said he dropped his hands from her and said he needed to use the restroom, and she grabbed his shoulder and said, “Listen, you son of a bitch, you’re going to finish this dance.”

Whoa, very interesting

There is some raw stuff in here about Clint Ritchie.

Sounds like a great read!

Do they say what Agnes thought about the stuff Gordon Russell wrote? I wanna know if she had opinions on the Karen Wolek murder trial, Victor Lord's death, the addition of the Buchanan's and Tina etc...

There's quite a lot about Gordon Russell. I'm going all over the book at the moment, I'm not sure about the rest.

All the Frons stuff is WONDERFUL!

Anthony Call (Herb Callison): "At the end, apparently Carlivati had this idea that he wanted Judy Light and me to come back on the show as an old married couple. How about that? Thank God they didn't ask me, because I don't ever want to act again - but apparently, I guess, she didn't want to do it."

Judith Light promptly says she never heard that, so who knows.

Somehow it cost me only 4.29 and I had credit on account so it was free. That was cool now have to find the time to read it.

That was an excellent read

WOOT--I was just wondering what the status of this was--and luckily it's on Amazon Canada. I don't have an e-reader, but I downloaded the Kindle free PC reader, and have already flipped through--looks really detailed! I know what I'll be doing tonight.

Youa lready read it all?
