Buying at Borders

A new shopping area has opened up near my house. They have some great restaurants, upscale shopping (which I'll likely not patronize often), and a Borders! The last makes me the most happy because I love bookstores and I can check the store's inventory online and get discount coupons in the mail. I've already spent a good chunk of money there on DVD's this weekend.

I bought the DVD box set of Kolchak: The Night Stalker, a sort of X-Files precursor from the early-to-mid 1970's starring Darren McGavin as the reporter who finds himself often investigating the supernatural. It has a great mix of comedy and horror, something I think the new Night Stalker series lacks. It only lasted for a couple of seasons, but I think it would have done well if they hadn't canceled it. It has a cult following of sorts. And Darren McGavin is a nice furry guy as I found out from the episode "The Ripper."

I'm really here to find the killer...

Kolchak investigates a massage parlor and shows some skin...

One of the other movies I bought this weekend was Bram Stoker's The Mummy, found in the bargain bin while out and about. The movie is pretty much independent junk, but it stars Richard Karn in a supporting role. It's one of the few chances to see him shirtless. I snagged a screen capture for those who are interested to see it.

Ah.. Al Borland fur

Richard Karn also shows some skin...

If only Richard knew who his real fans were. We'd buy just about anything with him showing some skin.

I loved Kolchak...I Still See it On TV Every So Often...

damn... first time I've seen a pic of Richard Karn shirtless. He's so hot. He needs to do more, with less on :)

I had no idea who Richard Karn is... I do now however.

I loved Kolchak, way back when. I might have to pick up that set.

Thanks! I always thought that Richard Karn would be furrier, but that's ok. If my plan to meet and seduce him when he was in Gainesville had worked, I would not have been disappointed.

sci-fi would run the old kolchak's all the time when i first got tivo. so i got to see them all over again in the last year. i didn't realize they were coming out on dvd. that's probably why they stopped airing them.

but Darren McGavin actually appeared as a retired newspaper reported in the x-files. i don't remember if the character was called kolchak or not.

i've got a couple episodes of the new kolchak waiting for me to watch, but haven't had the time.

Thank you SO much for that Richard Karn pic.
I've wanted to see him shirtless for YEARS!
*swoon*

Mmmmm, Richard Karn. Thanks for posting his photo [drool].

Richard Karn is very woofy!

And I've also heard the story that he knows how the bear community loves him. And that he is OK with that. Pretty cool.

Some serious eyelashes, too! Those makeup queens sure know their mascara!
