Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 10 Members Share Posted January 10 Last week we had the anniversary of the first soap to go from a half hour to an hour. The NBC exec who pushed that through was Lin Bolen. Although she denied it, is is widely accepted that Diana in NETWORK is based on her. One of my favorite movies, I have just rewatched it. Here are the quotes: "My God, I'm supposed to be the romantic & you're supposed to be the hard-bitten realist." - Max, NETWORK 1976 "This is the story of Howard Beale, the first person known to be killed because he had lousy ratings." - news announcer, NETWORK 1976 "NBC has daytime locked up with all their lousy game shows. I want to knock them down. I'm thinking about doing a homosexual soap opera, 'The Dykes', the tragic story of a woman in love with her husband's mistress." - Diana, NETWORK 1976 "I've reached for the phone to call you 100 times." - Diana to Max, NETWORK 1976 "I'm as mad as hell & I'm not going to take it anymore." - Howard, NETWORK 1976 "All I want out of life is a 30 share and a 20 rating." - Diana, NETWORK 1976 "I have to warn you I don't do anything on my first date." - Max to Diana, NETWORK 1976 "After living with you for 6 months, I'm turning into one of your scripts!" - Max to Diana, NETWORK 1976 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 11 Members Share Posted January 11 Please register in order to view this content Last week I grabbed this shot & named it, "Polar bears make me miss Margi." So who is Margi? Margaret Ann Pearson Moore Holmberg. Now, she never used Ann. She was a Pearson from Mississippi but up north near Marks. I am a Pearson from Mississippi but far down south in Caesar, outside Picayune. We tried for years to establish some genealogical connection. None exists. I met Margi the summer of 1974. That makes her one of my oldest friends. As it happens, she was also one of my best friends. In the last 15 or so years it was our habit to talk on the phone every single day. Margi was a bit older than me, having been born on Oct. 24, 1945. We were chosen family to each other. She called me Sis & she was the sister I never had. She was a fiber artist, had her own spinning wheel, created amazing & masterful objects by crocheting them. Her favorite thing to do was free form. She had a number of chronic health conditions. In January 2022 she got the Omicron variation Covid. And, on the 11th of the month, she was taken from us. Rest in power & in peace, my dear, sweet, much beloved Margi. I miss you each & every day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
