Thu, December 21, 2006 - 10:15 PMWally George! Yeeaaahh! Also, incidentally, Rebecca de Mornay's father, as I recall. I Wiki'd him, and he has been defunct since 2003. -

Re: Wally,Wally.....!
Fri, December 22, 2006 - 12:49 AMI saw him interviewed on a Bay Area talk show back in the late 80s and he wasn't really like Springer. Wally George as I recall was extremely right wing (he even put out a record sometime in the 80s) and would regularly attempt to bait his TV show guests, whereas Springer is just a carnival barker. Sorry to hear though he isn't around anymore.
And yes he was Rebecca de Mornay's father, the Bay Area talk show hosts made a point of mentioning that. :)

Fri, December 22, 2006 - 4:17 PMsteez?And poor Mornay.....Does that mean Springer is not a circus/rightist clown in the same mode?Hell-of-a-lot of info....And does that mean he's not around to upset anyone anymore,as in departed to Valhalla?
The world is a better place after all.....defunkt L.A. usually seems worse but in this case.....
Some Bruckner 8 th seems in place,in memoriam,Wally, Wally! -

Springer freely admits his show is total garbage, whereas Wally would never have admitted the same about his show. -

Fri, December 22, 2006 - 5:36 PMSpeaking of dear, departed Wally, I'm reminded of a similar guy named Joe Pyne who was equally as right wing (if not more so) and hosted a TV show back in the 60s.
And who's the conservative ex-congressperson in OC that used to be a TV commentator? His rants were always a hoot too. -

Fri, December 22, 2006 - 11:32 PMJoe Pyne was the pioneer of ideological blowhard talk shows. There's a bootleg DVD you can get of some of Pyne's stuff. I've been meaning to get a copy of it. Saw a review of it in Shock Cinema awhie back. -

Mon, December 25, 2006 - 9:09 PMJoe had helplessly stupid fringe people on. Alien worshipers, animal morality societies. Very farcical programs. I can't remember him talking to anyone legitimate. -
