| Tuesday April 04 01:54:30 2017 movie name? |
| There is a scene where a short-haired damsel is wraparound tape gagged in her home at night. When her husband comes down the stairs, they taser him unconscious and then drag her off to the bathroom. |

| Tuesday April 04 04:57:45 2017 First Onscreen Tape Gag? |
| In the Hitchcock film "Saboteur" there is a lost opportunity. After Priscilla Lane's character is kidnaped, two enemy spies exchange the following dialogue. "- How is she? - OK. She's having her breakfast. - Any trouble keeping her quiet? - No. I made a deal with her. You see, she got tired of having that adhesive tape over her eyes and mouth." Of course we don't get to see it but it got me thinking. Saboteur was made in 1941 at a time where the OTM detective gag was the most common way to silence a damsel in the movies. So what is the earliest tape gag on film? |

| Is slightly after your example but Ghost Catchers in 1944 had excellent(and unusually wide) white tape gags, even a wraparound! Pretty sure there are examples going back to the early 1930's seems the potential was spotted straight away! |
| Tuesday April 04 10:01:27 2017 Lifetime movie |
| This Saturday, "The Wrong Mother" stars Vanessa Marcil (still looking amazing) as a mother who's stalked by her surrogate. Nothing on promo except fight scene, so that might be the finish. But worth a look, as these Lifetime movies are on a major roll lately. The guest star tape-gag scene in the Kellie Martin Hallmark movie is set for this Sunday. |

| Was that a gag in the pilot episode of Lois and Clark? Plus, pencil in the teeth a la Tina Fey |

It looked more like coban or an elastic bandage than a simple cloth OTM to me. I hope it's a good gag scene for Mirando Otto. Hate to think I endured this terrible show for 10 weeks for a blink and you'll miss it. |

Was Hatcher tied up before Kent joined her or did they get captured together? If she was alone at some point, it could have been a gag, If they captured them together, no sense it was a gag since they weren't gagging them both. It did match her outfit, so maybe she added it later. |

Its possible that it was either a gag or further restraint in an earlier take, since the way that it sits on her in the actual scene serves no purpose. There's no footage of it being used as a gag in the scene. |

| > I don't recall the capture setup. Was Hatcher tied > up before Kent joined her or did they get captured > together? Episode posted at Video Page. Hatcher was captured first then Clark interrupts when she's being tied to the post with seat belt strapping. He can't do anything without revealing he's Superman so he's chained on other side of post. Not sure why strapping is around her neck. Perhaps director was experimenting with a gag |
| Tuesday April 04 13:14:11 2017 Hawk |
| In one of the ultimate **never thought I would see this on TV ever again** Get TV is showing some episodes of the old short lived Hawk detective show on APR 10 - (see Alerts). Included is the one with Lynda Day, which as a kid I vaguely recalled it to be an "all time great" scene, although it may not be as great as I remembered it to be. |

I too remember going to that place - it was a ratty - but big IIRC - store with lots of drab wooden racks. I hardly bought much there, but was probably reluctant to go and ask where the bound and gagged pix were, and there was tons of aisles to search through |

I just bought that one! Good to know. I believe this one was the earliest. A cute scene. Title: Yellow Cargo (1936) aka Sinful Cargo Medium: Movie Actress: Eleanor Hunt Description: In this hourlong actioner an investigator suspects that a movie producer is using his position as a cover for bringing illegal Asian immigrants into the country. Hunt and a male partner spend about the last ten minutes being spirited away on a boat and in the back seat of a car by the bad guys with their hands tied behind them and gagged with wide strips of white tape. There are only a few brief shots of Hunt alone, but some viewers may find the dialogue she and her rescuer exchange at the end ("It feels so good to get my mouth open!" "I'll bet you never had it closed so long in your life!" "Quick, untie my hands! I want to use those, too!") to be a saving grace. I believe the "newest one is "The Lesson" (2016.) It's basically a putz-fest until their girlfriend is nabbed. She's cutey before she gets bloodied. She gets zip-tied arms over head to one of the boy's chairs and a patch of duct tape over her mouth. Interesting angles. Her name is either Michaela Prchalova or Dolya Gavanski. Enjoy! |

It's available on YT and is actually a pretty good little film. If it wasn't for the putz it might have been a classic. The damsel gets lead around or carried while B&Ged, she's swapped between vehicles, even has the police within a few feet of where she is hidden at one point. Of course 1930's gags are 100% effective so there is no hummphing. |

| Tuesday April 04 22:45:32 2017 Hunter Street |
| A cute bit from Nickelodeon's Hunter Street. Tonight's episode has Zoe Harding captured by a bunch of kids when she breaks into a house. Only a brief gag, but she spends most of the episode tied to the chair. |
