this is why i love bellgab     Fantastic  people


  Now Planet of the Apes (1968) has been visually referenced in The X-Files on at least two occasions before, in “War of the Coprophages” and “Sein Und Zeit,” so this is a nice call back in terms of series history to the best damned science fiction movie ever made.

Beyond that surface level, however, consider the plot of Escape from the Planet of the Apes. The movie finds two endangered parents, Zira (Kim Hunter) and Cornelius (Roddy McDowall) giving up their baby, Milo, for adoption by circus owner Armando (Ricardo Montalban).

In other words, these simian parents have made the same choice that Mulder and Scully make, vis-à-vis, their child. To protect their son, they give him away, losing him forever.

So this is clearly a case in which a visual allusion reflects on the story being told.

How much did Art pay Carter to come on this shitty show?

I don't know that Art would be handling this interview any better. She's thoroughly adequate.

I'm shocked that Art is actually letting his mistress interview Carter. Just proves the old liar is never coming back.

Don't you have school tomorrow?

It did! And people talking backwards.

I know!  and I've spent years erasing it from my memory index.  ;D

I knew he wouldn't stick around for the whole show. He sounded like he realized he made a huge mistake.

Nice observation. I'm going to have to rewatch now.

Chris should have stuck around for open lines, he could have spoken with Michelle.

He promised not to post the pics of Carter dressed as Jade Moon Afterglow of Carter came on the show.

"Did that take you some thought?"

Come on, Heather.



Hahaha...  As she said on GabCast [paraphrased]:  Everybody is different, I am the same.

With that attitude, she doesn't give a shit about improving or even doing a respectable job.  That whole line of thinking is part of megalomania.  She's right, everybody else is wrong.  Wonder if she was latent with that attitude or if Art helped develop that jewel of an attitude with his cult of personality.

I didn't expect Carter to be around for the full three hours.

She did.
I've heard him interviewed before. This is how he acts most of the time.
In my job, I've interviewed hundreds of people. Sometimes, you just run into someone like this.
Good segment.
I know RCH is foaming at the month.

I'd say a little of both.
