It’s probably wise not follow our recommendations on matters ranging from vulture hygiene to Sterno consumption, but if you can get past all that, you might find an agreeable time-burner in last night’s discussion of “The Andromeda Strain.”
Guest Rob Kash and I may have had a bit of a dust-up over a supposed familial connection between Leslie and Trevor Howard, and I may have lost my cool over no one having heard of “Brief Encounter,” but it all ended happily, with an orange hand puppet more abhorrent than any contagion.
Roy and I will be back to light a fuse under Oliver Reed (who I’m sure knew a thing or two about the taste of Sterno), Diana Rigg, and Telly Savalas, with an appreciation of “The Assassination Bureau” (1969), on the next Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner, this Friday night at 7:00 EST!
