T.J. Hooker
Day: Monday December 29 2014
Time: 2:00 AM Eastern
Channel: Exitos
Dubbed in Spanish.

Record number: 7313

Title: T.J. Hooker
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Annie Ellis, Heather Locklear, Corinne Bohrer aka Corrinne Bohrer

Description: Episode: "The Decoy" (2.14)

Starts with a blonde policewoman (not in uniform) thrown out of a car with her hands taped behind her back.

The culprit works at a tennis academy so Stacey Sheridan (Locklear) goes undercover as a tennis player but her cover is blown when the bad guy catches her snooping around his office. He pulls out a roll of tape and tapes her hands behind her. The villain brings to her an old building and locks her in a makeshift cell where she's eventually rescued by good old TJ. No gag but a brief handgag by the villain through the bars when Stacey talks too much.

Corinne has two superb, tho brief, handgagging scenes before she meets her unfortunate end. She wears a very short, very flattering white tennis dresss. This occur at about the halfway point of the episode, prior to "Stacey's" abduction.

Xena
Day: Monday December 29 2014
Time: 6:00 AM Eastern
Channel: Exitos
Dubbed in Spanish

Record number: 3407

Title: Xena: Warrior Princess
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Renee O'Connor, Hudson Leick, Lucy Lawless

Description: Episode: "The Return of Callisto" (2.5)

About a minute in, you see prison guards feeding Callisto (Hudson Leick). How this is actually achieved is somewhat of a mystery, because Callisto is seated in a heavy chair, arms strapped to the armrests, and with pretty wide leather straps across her forehead, neck and ankles. Skimpy leather outfit, bare feet. Anyways, a bowl attached to a 8' pole is shoved into the window of the cell and the bowl is kind of floating in front of her. Since her head and neck is tightly restrained, it isn't very useful for her. She cusses the guards out and one of the guards goes into the cage and starts beating her with a stick. She grabs a knife during this, and escapes shortly thereafter. About a minute of on-screen time. As an interesting side note, Callisto uses the chair (with restraints still hanging off the side) later in the episode as a throne.

At 31 minutes Gabrielle has her wrists bound over her head in preparation for being burned at the stake and Xena gets to try the chair with restraints. This scene is about 2 and a half minutes long. In the 2nd scene where Xena is in the chair and Gabrielle is tied to the stake, Lucy Lawless actually breaks the restraint on the left arm of the chair while she is struggling and quickly moves her arm back in place so it looks like she's still restrained (occurs just after the stake is lit and before Callisto turns around and says "don't bother struggling"). This was clearly not intentional, as later in the scene she uses the chakram to cut her left wrist free. Either they left it in because the editor didn't spot it, she actually broke the chair and they didn't have a replacement, or they didn't have time for another take.

Kind of dark in both scenes, but there is still a lot of detail visible in the DVD versions. All times without commercials.
