Young" Subject: [chakram-refugees] Liz Friedman on House 11/13/2007 I watch House on FOX (KHON locally) once in a while (the sharp writing reminds me a lot of XWP ;) ), and tonight I noticed Liz Friedman's name mentioned as producer in the credits. ;) This is the ep with the kid with a malformed head, and the documentary cameras. Looks like a lot of the XWP alums landed with their feet on the ground in a lot of good shows in Hollywood....;) Just FYI, - --Jackie ****************************************************** * Proud to have the same birthday as Lucy Lawless! * * * * JACKIE YOUNG, JYOUNG@LAVA.NET * * * * * ****************************************************** ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.

At the site is a link to numbers 51-100. There is a complete absence of warrior princesses. It is hard to argue with most of the people in the list, though the note below, from IMDB News, notes a lot of other omissions. Boeotian _http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20152957_20152958_20159773,00.html_ (http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20152957_20152958_20159773,00.html) Peculiar List of 50 Greatest TV Icons In advance of a special to air on the nostalgia channel TV Land, the channel and Entertainment Weekly have issued a list of the 50 greatest TV "icons" of all time. The list is headed by _Johnny Carson_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0001992/) , with _Lucille Ball_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0000840/) listed in second place. But it is heavily weighted in favor of personalities from the '70s on. For example, while it lists _Barbara Walters_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0910181/) at No. 23, it makes no mention of _Edward R. Murrow_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0615386/) (or _Mike Wallace_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0908794/) , _Chet Huntley_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0403142/) , _David Brinkley_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0109604/) or Walters' _ABC_ (http://us.imdb.com/company/co0037052/) colleague _Diane Sawyer_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0768154/) , for that matter.) _Jerry Seinfeld_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0000632/) , _Bea Arthur_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0037735/) , _Jon Stewart_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0829537/) and _Flip Wilson_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0933400/) make the list at Nos. 8, 38, 41, and 43 respectively, but not _Jack Benny_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0000912/) , Burns and Allen, or _Red Skelton_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0804026/) . While Kermit the Frog takes 21st place, Howdy Doody is passed over. And while _Regis Philbin_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0005310/) ranks 27th, _Dave Garroway_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0308541/) and _Steve Allen_ (http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0006752/) are ignored. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com ========================================================= This has been a message to the chakram-refugees list.
