Re: Local TV Ads You Don't Like
I haven't seen these ads on TV but they have been shown at the Ward Theaters before the movie starts for the last month or so. Something about being "eligible" but they are not saying "eligible" for what?

"Everyone else does it" is usually reserved for trying to influence teens, I'm suprised that the Hwn Air ad people are pulling it on adults.

Re: Local TV Ads You Don't Like
I'm saddened at the commercials for the Live From The Lawn special, featuring our Grammy-nominated musicians performing at the Hawaii State Art Museum and hosted by Paula Akana.
The voiceover on the commercials mentions that one of the performers is Mike Ka`a`awa. One too many A's there. Ka`a`awa is a community; Mike's last name is Kaawa. And I imagine he'd like it pronounced correctly, especially considering who put the show together.
Irritating to hear it wrong, especially from people who, of all people, should know better.

Originally posted by tutusue View PostNo need to feel sorry for Loretta. At this point, it's absolutely fine that Loretta is known, locally, as the Oceanic mom. For quite awhile she was known for her role in the Harry and Myra Bankoh spots. Neither has/will hurt her. She's too good!
And besides, Broadway afficionados tend to be much more open-minded folks than the masses whose tastes in entertainment are confined to TV and movies. It should be noted that it was through live stage productions that Neil Patrick Harris (Doogie Howser M.D.) and Macauley Culkin (Home Alone) were given the opportunity to be taken seriously as adult actors, at a time when the TV/movie crowd had dismissed them as washed-up child-stars. So no, there's little chance that anyone in Broadway will look down upon Loretta or think less of her for being in those Oceanic commercials.

Now, who here would actually think that Richard Grieco would become a bigger star than Depp?

Acting!
Sean Hayes of Will & Grace: Gay or acting?
The entire cast of Kids in the Hall: Gay or acting?

Originally posted by Frankie's Market View PostIt's sometimes hard to say. I mean, if one didn't know that Jonathan Harris (who played Dr. Smith in Lost In Space) was married and had children, you would have sworn that guy was a fruit. Same goes for Tony Randall. They both had effeminate personas on the screen. But that didn't automatically mean they were gay in real life.
