As a result, Ed "Lou Grant" Asner won Emmies as Best Support in a Comedy Series *and* Best Lead Actor in a Drama, playing the same character, which I think was the first time that that's happened.

Lou Grant - started as standard comedy grouchy but loveable boss foil to Mary Tyler Moore on her eponymous show, barely keeping his staff of whacky characters in line, then spun off to his own drama series which dealt with serious issues.

I'm glad that someone has finally had the guts to call him out - he's got away with it for too long...! In a similar vein, I was just saying to my boss yesterday that the Count of Monte Cristo was likewise a jerk...

The following year humans walked on the Moon. Around twenty years later, Voyager would send us the Pale Blue Dot image, our world, but now seen from the cold, distant edge of our solar system, barely a pixel, floating in a sunbeam. No wonder I grew up a space geek...

#Christmas Eve, 1968. Three humans are further from home than anyone in our entire history. As the crew of Apollo 8 rounded the dark side of the Moon, they saw a sight never seen by human eyes before: Earthrise. #Apollo #Noel

The Earth rising above the Lunar surface, the first time viewed by a human being, our world a vibrant blue glow in the velvet blackness of space.

I happen to share a birthday with the great Rosemary Sutcliff, born 105 years ago today. Her historical fiction books (largely what we'd now call YA) are wonderful, spotlighting life in Britain from the stone age onwards, with a lot of emphasis on Roman and Sub-Roman. 1/2

"Emil and the Detectives" by Erich Kästner has beautiful original period illustrations by Walter Trier, which seem to have been replaced by modern ones by other artist (or at least the cover has been replaced), in spite of the Trier ones being in the public domain, as he died in 1952...

I consider myself a Wally Wood fan (with several originals of my own) but... I didn't know about this. Apparently in the early 60's Wally pitched a Sunday newspaper strip showcasing famous people, and made up some presentation pieces, like this one.

The original French theme is an instrumental dirge of a march, especially when compared to the British alternative - can't begin to imagine what that might sound like interpreted by Johnny Halliday... I imagine YouTube might be able to provide an answer...

Genuinely loved all of them - the books are unreadable, but the movies are really absorbing. Even enjoyed The Hobbit trilogy (the first one in ultra high-frame rate 3D is probably the best presentation of a movie I've seen as well).
