    I may be electric... but I can't play THIS game... ;)

    The "festival" celebrates the real "Larry Bloom's" (AKA Larry Smith) concept of the 6 word memoir.

    You might recall, many posts ago, I discussed hearing Larry Smith on NPR (I know, I know... I could be a character on this show) discussing his 6 word project. He had been inspired by a story where someone challenged the late great Earnest Hemmingway in a tavern, to write a novel in 6 words.

    His response?

    Baby shoes for sale. Never used. :weep:


    Anyone else out there, ready to pick up the challenge and sum themselves up in 6 words? :p

    Isn't it amazing how Princess Diana can so aptly be described in these six words: Like a candle in the wind.

    (I'm thinking about ME..)

    (I can only think of four words. I've always loved brevity LOLOL.. I'll post it when I make it to six.)

    Yes.

    Although I do like the way he changed the song to fit her... "England's Rose", still I cannot for the life of me figure out how he could sing it at her funeral without breaking down.

    I know... he's a professional, but still, he's human too.

    :wah:

    My 6 word contribution?

    Rain is coming. Must mow now.

    :p

    See ya later.

    In fairness, some of the comedy episodes in this could've been skipped. Overall, I'd give it a 6.5/10.

    Not thrilled at being Alex either. I really love the characters in OitNB but not sure I would want to be any of them.

    6 words huh?

    it's either...

    "I'm too sexy for my shirt" or "What kind of fool am I?".

    "Way too early plus it's raining" so "don't have the thinking cap on".

    Teacake... I just realized I forgot to congratulate you on this wonderful find! (Love the chicken, under her feet)


    After reading your last post, Delann13, I see that I did not read this one correctly.

    I thought you were saying you are Red... not that (like me) you just missed being her!

    Still, I think I'd rather be drug running but very sexy Alex :drool: (who has ALL of her teeth, I should add!) than a murdering meth head with a mouth full of "oh no". :eek:

    Is black the new orange? ;)

    I understand the concept of "heels", but dang, the chick is tall.

    The problem with "season 2 surprises..."

    http://www.theintelligencer.com/article_cd72e30e-58f9-52f0-82e9-e1de22543f9c.html

    ... is that they have been shooting since late July which means 2 months without Prepon on set. IIRC they took 3 months to shoot season 1. So the "surprises" she's teasing about are probably not going to be "more" Alex than 1 episode at this rate, unless TPTB deploy my suggestion of Vause being involved by mail with the Litchfield inmates via-voice over and maybe some flashbacks.

    Hmmm.

    I wonder, if I had won Powerball last Wednesday, would buying a controlling interest in "Lionsgate" make Jenji tell me what she has planned for Vause???? :p

    Would I really want to know? :rolleyes:

    How short is Mila Kunis????

    http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity...st-kiss-not-surprised-they-are-dating-2013219

    Hmmm, and IMDB says... She (Mila) and Laura Prepon were often filmed sitting down for their scenes on "That '70s Show" (1998) because Laura is seven inches taller than Mila. In other scenes, Mila wears platform shoes to give her four extra inches.

    Love the end of the article, where she dishes on OitNB...

    "It's an amazing show, and my character is a total badass," she said of OITNB. "I don't want to stop playing her (Alex) because she is amazing, but I'm definitely coming back for season two, and it's going to be awesome." :bolian:

    Don't forget this, next Monday...

    Nearly everyone went to the Derek premiere...

    but has anyone watched the show?

    I think I've posted Natasha and Laverne's interviews already, but somehow missed these others.

    Selenis = Gloria = the Hispanic "Red".

    There's several vids for OItNB out there that use this song... here's the most recent version.

    I don't know when she purportedly said these... but I suspect it was a few years ago. Either way, many of them are hilarious!

    Request to the moderator(s):

    Could you please move this thread to TV and Media. With all due respect to the posters in this thread who are fans of Orange is the New Black, and I do I understand this show has Kate Mulgrew in it and some posters are a fan of her and this show, but it is inappropriate to have it in the Voyager Forum. It is like having a TJ Hooker appreciation thread in the TOS forum.

    This is not meant to disrespect anyone here, and in fact I am making this request as respectfully as possible to all involved, but I think requesting this move is appropriate, and quite frankly, long overdue. Thank you.

    I love having this thread here, it is full of Janeway fans. There is already an Orange thread in Tv and Media. This is the Janeway fan version of the Orange thread.

    And really, if you don't like it don't read it. It's not like it's multiple threads cluttering the forum, it is easily skipped.

    I see that was your only post in this thread Subcommander, so it's not like you are requesting this for your own convenience of posting.

    Nope, I have not watched derek, didn't feel like paying 15$/month for netflix.. greedy bastards. Guess they were all there to support the network (can you call netflix a tv network now?)


    I have to agree, it's not like this thread could possibly be in the way to anyone. It's not really a big deal to me where the thread is placed, but I don't see the point in moving it.

    If you want my opinion....

    [​IMG]

    I say it should stay.

    To be frank... the TV & Media version of this thread USED to outstrip it in viewers and posters, but that quickly fell to the wayside. Heck I even stopped checking it by mid August because of infrequent posts, picking it up again around the time of the first Laura Prepon rumors.

    Kate Mulgrew/Janeway IS the reason I started watching this show.

    Teacake's screen captures and effusiveness in the Sexy Janeway thread encouraged me to take the plunge.

    We tried to keep OitNB "hidden" in the sexy thread, but Karabear rightly felt she/it needed a thread all to itself.

    The fact that we get 200-300 views IN THIS forum with every major posting, suggests people enjoy it and are interested in it.

    Like Teacake, I can not understand why "this" thread is causing the subcommander such angst.

    Any positive press Kate Mulgrew garners for her role in OitNB can only reflect positively on her past roles... such as Captain Kathryn Janeway of Star Trek Voyager.

    At the Las Vegas STAR TREK Convention.

    [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNrghhJAkCk[/yt]

    The mere fact that many of the interviewers of Ms Mulgrew all comment on her previous Trek role confirms this idea.

    I agree the TSC could easily avoid this one thread as I avoid the negative Janeway threads if he/she so chooses.

    As much as I enjoy talking about OitNB and that sassy Russian... there is no doubt in my mind that....

    [​IMG]

    No doubt AT ALL!

    Because... as the name implies...

    JANEWAY :drool:

    DOES :vulcan:

    RULE! :bolian:
