Netflix delivered the Northern Exposure DVD containing episode 1.3, "Soapy Sanderson," to me today. Good times. I love that old man matchmaker and his little scheme to make Fleishman and O'Connell actually like each other, even though he's in the episode for all of five minutes.

Also, it has this line from Maurice, upon going through the country music records Soapy leaves to the radio station: "'She's Acting Single, I'm Drinking Double'? 'I'm the Only Hell My Mamma Ever Raised'? Chris, you play this crap at six o'clock in the morning, you're gonna be looking down so many barrels, you'll think you've landed at an NRA convention. And I'll be leading the pack!" Mwahaha.

Plus, the student filmmakers are said to be from Kenyon! No, really. Because we so have a film department... And Soapy was a professor and "major benefactor"; though whether he would've taught in the Religious Studies or Classics department is a mystery, since he's supposed to have had doctorates in both theology and mythology. I was unaware anyone gave out Ph.Ds in "mythology," but okay...

Anyway, I thought that was rather cool, especially as Cicely is essentially Gambier North. *g* I assume one of the writers must be an alum. (Maybe the phonathon could call them instead of me? At least until I have a steady source of income? I swear, I do actually plan to donate when I have money!)

And the song in my music field is giving me a fic idea relating to this show. A depressing one. Whoops.

Ahh, the joy of moving, switching phone numbers, and NOT telling Kenyon.

No phonathon calls!
