Running through the title tool. Are all these the same show? I suspect so, as they are all soap operas.

Saturday November 22 14:06:54 2003 Title check |
On the whole, things looked pretty good. I found a few descrepencies, mostly capitalization differences or variations on title. Our overseas friends don't use periods after honorifics, so we had things like: Scarecrow and Mrs King a few times. Fixed up everything I saw.
The (German) following the one title didn't cause any problems for the tool, so that's not a factor in whether to keep it or not. The only reason I could see for retaining it would be so that people didn't think "Universum" was a typo. |

"I found a few descrepencies, mostly capitalization differences or variations on title. Our overseas friends don't use periods after honorifics, so we had things like: Scarecrow and Mrs King a few times. Fixed up everything I saw." Oh yes, our overseas "friend" I've been planning to do a complete backcheck on all his entries. Scarecrow was one of them, have it marked. Very predictable in his immature foolishness, so shouldn't be as much a problem for Editors as used to be. "The (German) following the one title didn't cause any problems for the tool, so that's not a factor in whether to keep it or not. The only reason I could see for retaining it would be so that people didn't think "Universum" was a typo." Okay, can always add that back in. |

I suppose if it had been readily identifiable as a non-English title, I wouldn't have bothered ... but I thought the "Mr." might be confusing. |

Saturday November 22 15:16:31 2003 High Tide |
Record number: 5493
Present entry: Title: High Tide Medium: TV Series Actress: Danielle Cormack Description: Episode: "Sitting Ducks" (1.11) Meghan Kelly (Cormack) is placed in bondage. Reference: Brent Smith's tape indexes. Most of the scenes on these videos are of the 'bound and gagged' variety, but let the renter/taper beware. Suggestion: Meghan Kelly (Cormack) stands with her back against a concrete pillar, her hands tied above her head with rope. She is gagged with white tape. After a fight, the hero knocks out the baddie in front of her. Then he removes our heroine's gag, but he seems reluctant to untie her. She wears a pink knitted blouse and a grey short skirt. Dialogue: (our hero having ungagged, but not untied our damsel) "Are you allright?" She:"Yes, I am allright" He:"Are you ticklish, then?" She: "no...NO, NOOOO don't!!" |

First I thought "what", and I had to read those words a couple of times before I understood. So, why make the entries more difficult to read than nessessary? I suggest you change the phrase to "naked". |

Saturday November 22 16:05:48 2003 Ryan's Hope |
Present entry:
Record number: 3725 Title: Ryan's Hope Medium: Soap Opera Actress: Gerit Quealy Description: Bound and gagged. Reference: Brent Smith's tape indexes. Suggestion: (based on a short video clip): Ms Quealy's character has been overpowered by 3 baddies. She is tied to a chair and gagged, all on screen: her hands are tied behind the back of the chair with rope, and she is cleavegagged with a dark patterned bandanna. We do not get to see her legs/feet. The onscreen gagging takes quite a while. Then the baddies leave. We see the Damsel struggling with her bonds, and trying to inch her chair nearer to a telephone, but she does not seem to get anywhere. Good closeups of her (rather loose) bonds. She wears a short dress with broad horizontal white and grey stripes. |

I only thought, there's no need to enter (NO I know this is not AG) phrases people will not understand if a common English word will be just as accurate- only to play (NO I know this is not AG) or just because YOU want to (NO I know this is not AG). |

"I suggest you change the phrase to "naked"." "I think there's a place for something beyond dry descriptions in the DB." "It's Brian's call ... if he thinks it's too abstruse, I'll 86 it." Okay, here's what I did, figure this way understandable and no need for more editing: Record number: 2106 Title: Stay Hungry (1976) aka Mister Universum Medium: Movie Actress: Brandy Wilde Description: Ms. Wilde's character is a prostitute, if memory serves, who goes to a gym after hours with a pre-MAGNUM Roger E. Mosley. Despite her distinct lack of enthusiasm, he proceeds to tie her to a massage bench, face down, each wrist and ankle tied to a leg of the bench with rope, and gag her with translucent medical tape. She's topless during the scene, and eventually fully en buffe, her panties having been removed. Naked, but no full frontal, as she remains on her tummy. IIRC, some crisis or other occurs, and he leaves her there for the other prostitute on the premises to release. |

Yes, took it out so's match up for the tool, but posted incase you fellas figured a good idea? Then I'd have a go at marking all similar entries in Title Field same. Not tonight of course, what? we've only an hour or so before game with Stars starts huh? ;) |

I guess they decided to copy the idea. Probably right. Copying is what our TV is best at. Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten aka GZSZ: There is no other German soap with a similar title. In fact, there are only four dailies at all: GZSZ Unter uns Marienhof Verbotene Liebe |

And if you don't mind my borrowing a phrase from your, I'd like to advise our Danish friend to "go slow" ... he's been petulant toward just about every other regular poster on this page at one time or another, and I doubt mine is the only patience that's wearing thin. Disagreement is one thing ... snippiness is right out. |
