Errr… Looks like December has been a relatively quiet month on the news front for all our regulars. Mid-month Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller in CC) was back home in Baltimore to take part in a reading of Thorton Wilder’s short one act play The Long Christmas Dinner. The event was held in the Baltimore Center Stage theatre as part of a fund raising effort to support various programs the venue runs. Written in the 1930s the 30 minute play covers 90 years worth of Xmas dinners of a particular family. Tracie played Leonora, the wife of family member Charles. After the reading there was a discussion/Q&A with the cast and crew. Earlier in December was the release of the Apple TV+ drama series Truth Be Told. The first three episodes ‘dropped’ on the 6th. The remaining seven have been/will be released on a weekly basis across December and January. Some of the older people amongst you may remember the sitcom Mad About You, starring Paul Reiser (Stranger Things) and Helen Hunt (Twister). As seems to be the trend these days, the show has been revisited for a new series (crossing fingers for CC). The original ran for seven seasons and 162 episodes starting in 1992. It made the two leads into huge stars. After MAY Paul primarily stayed working in TV whilst Helen mostly shifted to movies. The new series is a continuation of the show, set all these years later. Due to its distribution not being on a major network, despite the original being on NBC, the publicity has been relatively low key. This would be why I managed to miss the fact that Tracie apparently guest starred in the second episode, released on November 20th. That’s my excuse anyway. Anyone else want to step forward? No? OK, then Let’s move swiftly on to the review of the year’s reviews.
Here is KM UK’s quick look back at 2019.
But he’s such a good man, if a little grumpy, in that other show he did! John Billingsley stars in the role he’s second best known for after Enterprise (the Star Trek prequel show), and True Blood, and 24… He’s been in pretty much everything. In Cold Case episode ‘Mind Hunters’, number 9 of season 2, which first aired in late November 2004, John plays George Marks. George is a serial killer. Or is he? Yes he is. He works for the police department. Or does he? Yes he does. It’s been 15 years people. I think we’re past spoiler warnings. George is a special in Cold Case because he isn’t arrested at the end, unlike most of the guilty parties Lilly and co. encounter. He basically confesses. Everyone knows he did it. But they don’t have enough to charge him. Oh yeah, and Scotty is… erm… a new ‘special friend’ for Lilly’s sister Christina. Lilly is cock-a-hoop about that. I get the feeling George will be coming back though in around 14 episodes time. Just a hunch. We’ll be here posting more promo photos 15 years on from that date too. 6 new promo photos and 1 upgrade have now been added to the KM UK Gallery.
The ‘Reds’ were under the bed apparently. Not a bad hiding place but very unhelpful if you are trying to convince people of your point of view. Would you trust the word of a person who’d taken up residence in the space beneath a significant piece of furniture? An unsolved 1953 murder is brought to the Cold Case squad’s attention in ‘Red Glare’, episode 8 of season 2. November 21st 2004 is when it was originally broadcast. So, we’re just past the 15th year anniversary. Talking of dredging things up from the past: Lilly’s sister, Christina, turns up in Philly and we get glimpses of the lady behind the badge for the first time. Can Lilly catch her man, whilst loosing her girl? The KM UK Gallery has further expanded with 6 new promotional photographs from this episode of Cold Case.
