Bewitched and Other Stuff
Jun. 11th, 2010 05:02 amIt's been a busy week. The office has kept me running about and the IT quota time for Livejournal has kept me from reading it regularly during the day. I keep hoping the quota thing is a phase and eventually they'll forget to update something and it'll disappear.
I'll be posting the next Grizzly issue in installments. Honestly, I doubt I could keep the pieces under wraps until it was completely done.
Instead of watching movies this week, I've decided to watch Season One of Bewitched. I have to admit that in the great debate of Jeannie versus Samantha, I have always enjoyed Bewitched more. In watching the show from the start, it really was a very fun show.
I'm sure everyone can read whatever they want into the show, but I can identify with the idea of Samantha trying to be something she's not, a witch playing the role of the mortal. Most of us has had practice at that, being in the closet at one time or another. While her daily life goes about its way because of someone she loves, she proves time and again that she can never truly be something she's not. The twitching thing was fun, Dick York was the better Darrin, and Endora is a gay icon.
In other news, thank heavens it's Friday.
