Hello Again

Did you know "Beastmaster," the movie and TV show, were both based on a book? Yes, there is a book called "Beast Master." Who knew? Not only that, the only thing they have in common is the title and then not even because the book is two words.

That's the movie Beastmaster on the right. I liked him on "V."

Before you start rolling your eyes, I remember when I saw "Beastmaster" at the cinema. It was one of a double feature. I think we walked in late, so we missed the part where the cow is carrying the baby. Funny thing, it was the B movie and I can't remember the name of the A movie we went to see. But ever since then, it's been on rotation in cable and I admit to watching it, although not as often as "Selena" or "Steel Magnolias."

The Canadian series "Beastmaster" was on SciFi practically all day yesterday. I could only sit through half of one episode. The cheese on that show was unintentional. Plus it looked like they were trying to be a little more like "Hercules" or "Xena," but they didn't come close.

Why do I mention this? Because I know deep down, we are all secret "Beastmaster" fans and I know you'd appreciate the trivia.
