Here's a gif for "anonymous" that asked for it a few weeks ago. Captured by the stellar @sportstudfan from s4e20 - The Dispossessed. A rare bit of tenderness from Jess, seems like Slim brings it out in him.

I've been watching through the colour seasons of Laramie, and it's been impossible not to notice the intentional colour choices for Jess and Slim's outfits. Jess is always in cool colours, mostly blue and black, and Slim wears warm reds and browns. This of course is probably meant to reflect their personalities and backstories (Slim as passionate and morally upright, Jess as wandering ex-gunfighter, etc.)

They are even colour coordinated when they've just rolled out of bed:

The one thing that they both wear that doesn't match their usual tones is their jackets, in which they each wear the other's colours (the pockets and collar of Slim's jacket are dark blue and Jess's are a reddish brown).

I just... think that's sweet :) It shows that they are connected. Each one completes the other. It's also worth noting that sometimes, like in the GIF below with his red and blue checked shirt, little Mike is wearing both of their colours, symbolizing his connection to both of them.

Anyway, that's all :)

one of the pitfalls of watching old tv shows that film in black&white and then switch to color several seasons in is that i am so damn distracted by the sheer brilliance of the color that i entirely lose focus on the actual plot of the episodes. for instance i would love to describe what actually happens in the first few episodes of laramie s3 however all my brain is receiving is the saturated blue of slim's eyes against his apple-red bandana/denim blue shirts/goldenrod hair/very tanned skin

#i feel like a moviegoer in 1939 watching kansas turn into the technicolor land of oz ALJFALSKJ #autism sensory powers are working overtime lol #every frame is so colorful and beautiful i want to stare at it for hours... #laramie

[familyofpaladins]

By "old" I mean the series that aired from the 1950-1970's , as I feel that's kind of the "classic" western age

Theres A LOT of western shows, but I chose some that I think are a little more popular/well known, and/or that I enjoy

Character Actress

Susan Oliver (born Charlotte Gercke, February 13, 1932 – May 10, 1990) Actress, television director, and aviator.

After working in summer stock and regional theater, and in unbilled bits in daytime and primetime television shows and commercials, she made her first major television appearance in a supporting role in the July 31, 1955, episode of the live drama series Goodyear TV Playhouse and quickly progressed to leading parts in other shows.

Oliver did numerous television shows in 1957, and appeared on stage. After she had larger roles in live television plays on Kaiser Aluminum Hour, The United States Steel Hour, and Matinee Theatre. Oliver then went to Hollywood, where she appeared in the November 14, 1957, episode of Climax!, one of the few live drama series based on the West Coast, as well as in a number of filmed shows, including one of the first episodes of NBC's Wagon Train, Father Knows Best, The Americans, and Johnny Staccato.

On April 6, 1960, the 28-year-old Oliver played a spoiled young runaway, Maggie Hamilton, who gets soundly spanked by scout Flint McCullough (Robert Horton), in "The Maggie Hamilton Story" on NBC's Wagon Train. On November 9, 1960, she was cast as the lead guest star in "The Cathy Eckhart Story" on Wagon Train, with husband-and-wife actors John Larch and Vivi Janiss as Ben and Sarah Harness.

Oliver was cast in the 1960 episode of The Deputy as the long-lost daughter of star Henry Fonda's late girl friend, and appeared in Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theatre episode "Knife of Hate" as Susan Pittman. In 1961, Oliver played the part of Laurie Evans in the episode "Incident of His Brother's Keeper" on CBS's Rawhide, and in 1963, she played Judy Hall in the episode "Incident at Spider Rock", Also in 1962, Oliver appeared as Jeanie in the television series Laramie in the episode "Shadows in the Dust".

Oliver played the female lead guest character Vina in "The Cage" (1964), which was the first pilot of Gene Roddenberry's new show, Star Trek. Two years later, Oliver's performance was reused in the first season, two-part episode "The Menagerie" (1966).  

In 1970, she appeared as Carole Carson/Alice Barnes on the television Western The Men From Shiloh (rebranded name for The Virginian) in the episode titled "Hannah".

From 1975 to 1976, Oliver was a regular cast member of the television soap opera Days of Our Lives. In 1976, she received her only Emmy Award nomination (for "Outstanding Performance by a Supporting Actress") in the three-hour-long, made-for-TV movie Amelia Earhart, broadcast on October 15, 1976, on NBC-TV.  (Wikipedia)

i’m going to sound super edgy but.. in terms of LGB representation, I much prefer whatever we had prior to, say, 2005, than what we have now. old TV shows/movies/books that made a point of being pro-LGB rights feel much more genuine than what we have now because back then LGB rights were an impopular cause, you had nothing to gain from it, so medias that support it came from genuine support, and were usually made by LGB people so they were own voices too. I am talking about stuff like: nijinsky, queer as folk, early seasons of the l word (i haven’t watched past season 2 so i can’t speak on that), dawson’s creek, bare, the laramie project. not to mention even older books talking about that subject (Giovanni’s Room, The Price of Salt)

nowadays you can just tell that “queer representation” is just there to pander to modern audiences, that characters are being created just so that teenagers have people to ship and blog about, storylines feel much less genuine, and it is starting to be hijacked by the gender movement (more and more non binary characters or characters identifying as “queer”, etc). see: literally every Netflix TV show imo

obviously i am exaggerating everything to make a point but I just feel that LGB representation was much more genuine and valuable Back In The Days(tm). and also i just prefer 90s/early 00s TV shows to modern TV shows sooo

s1:e24 - Street of Hate

Hey y'all, it's been a while! Life has gotten in the way of posting (of course) but I'm going to try to be more consistent, even if that means I just post once a week. Anyway, on to the episode!

This is a solid "pards" episode of Laramie, and has some really great scenes. A townsperson/old friend is paroled out to Slim after serving a manslaughter sentence. The victim's father is quite upset about this guy returning to town and tries to make all sorts of issues, which of course Slim and ultimately Jess get involved in. Charles Bronson plays parolee Frank Buckley; if you're into him, there's a good shirtless scene. I won't go too far into the plot synopsis because this is really one worth watching and I don't want to spoil it. However, I will definitely talk about these screenshots. :)

Early in the episode, Slim and Jess are playing cards in the saloon while waiting for Frank's stage to come in. It looks like Jess is playing solitaire with some input from Slim, which is ridiculously cute. I never paid much attention to this scene until one of my mutuals pointed it out (you know who you are, lol), and I see why it's one of their favorites.

Later on, Jess is breaking in a horse, which leads to a very strange scene of Andy sewing the torn seat of his pants while he's still wearing them. Andy accidentally pokes Jess with the needle, and both Jess' and Slim's reactions are priceless.

We also get a fantastic tandem fight scene that ends with washing up in a water trough after the boys have kicked some ass.

Finally, the episode closes with Slim and Jess sitting on their porch, tattered boots up on the railing...and touching, of course. ❤️💙

sleepover time?? sleepover time!! 🥳🥳 hmmm.... yk how there's always that One Thing that you love or know loads about but never get the chance to talk about? like a video game that you love but you don't know anyone else who's played it, or a book you read when you were really young, or a cool wikipedia spiral you went down and now know all kinds of weird shit about for no reason? if you had to choose, what would that thing be? im curious hehe 🤠💕

(a very long winded way to say: if you were on mastermind, what would your specialist subject be?? 👀👀)

Ginger! Hi and welcome! Thank you so much for the ask!

From this prompt list. (Asks are still open.)

This was tough, and at first, I couldn't figure out why. I think that what was hard about this was thinking of something I like that people don't know I like. I'm a pretty open book (AKA- a too-talkative, hopefully-friendly person who just does not know when to shut up.) But, I kept thinking definitely needed an answer to your very thoughtful question. And I got one!

I am not exaggerating when I say I am very well-versed in many old American Western TV shows. I'm talking Bonanza, The Rifleman, Laramie, Big Valley, etc. I watched them all so so so many many many times when I was a kind and absolutely loved them. And then, when I realized you could look up information about guest stars, production trivia, behind the scenes stuff on this wonderful thing called the internet? Oh, I went in a DEEP DIVE and came out knowing every scrap of information I could find and where to find even the rarest of episodes...

#thank you!

6!

omg another one from my high school...this one’s from our production of the laramie project. i wasn’t IN this one but that meant i got to see it and it was incredible. once again i’m blown away at the talent and professionalism displayed by my classmates when they did these productions bc performances like this are genuinely better than some actual professional shows i’ve seen. two things i remember sticking out most were the scenes with the newscaster; they used an actual tv camera to broadcast a live feed of the actor to two crt tv monitors they flew in from the rigging, and the (sophomore! 16 year old!!) actor was crying genuine tears during his performance. and the set, which was built out over the front section of seating in the theater, and painted to look like the town map of laramie

Wendell Pierce and Bill Irwin in a scene from Confirmation (2016). Bill was born in Santa Monica, California, and has 104 acting credits, from a 1979 tv episode to Rustin (2023). His entry among my best 1001 is Eight Men Out. This is his second honorable mention, after The Laramie Project.

His other notable credits include Popeye, an episode of The Cosby Show, Bobby McFerrin's Don't Worry Be Happy video, Hot Shots, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, A Midsummer Nights Dream (1999), How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Igby Goes Down, The Manchurian Candidate, Across the Universe, Rachel Getting Married, nine episodes of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, a voice in Interstellar, six episodes of The Andy Warhol Diaries (as the voice of Andy), and 54 episodes of Sesame Street (1991-2023) and 25 Elmo's World videos (mostly as the voice of Mr Noodle (1991-2019).

Made for television.

January 8, 2024

When people elect a representative to Congress, they expect someone who will propose and support laws for the good of the country and the legislator's constituents. Sadly for many Republican voters, what they get instead is an attention-seeking clown who thinks public service is a reality TV show.

Case in point: Florida congressman Matt Gaetz (pictured above at his usual place of business). The son of a prominent and wealthy former Florida Senate leader, Gaetz was elected to the US House in 2016 and immediately began engaging in stunts designed to get his moniker on social media and his mug on Fox News.

There was the time he showed up on the House floor wearing a gas mask during a COVID relief vote. There was his much-publicized bill to abolish the Environmental Protection Agency. And there were his many guest shots on Fox defending Donald Trump. By 2021, Forbes calculated he had made "at least 179 appearances since he was sworn into office in 2017."

Plus, of course, there was his high-profile participation in removing Kevin McCarthy from the House speakership. For many of his fellow GOPers, that was the final straw. Said Florida representative Carlos Gimenez of Gaetz, “He’s about how many cameras he can get shoved in his face." Senator Markwayne Mullin (OK) groused, “All of a sudden he found fame because he opposed the Speaker of the House. And he was never going to leave." McCarthy himself remarked, “Matt’s goal was to be the TV congressman.” Meanwhile, Time magazine described the Florida congressman as "a show horse more interested in booking TV hits than passing legislation."

But limelight-hungry Gaetz is not alone. Khale Lenhart, former chairman of the Laramie County (Wyoming) Republican Party, spells out why.

Modern political campaigns have given rise to a new breed of politician: the performance artist. This type of candidate is known less for their ideas or qualifications and more for their attention-grabbing antics. Whether it be through bombastic statements or through policy proposals with no basis in reality, this type of candidate is far more concerned with performance than policy.

Which explains the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Paul Gosar, Elise Stefanik and dozens more Republicans polluting the House. Says The New York Post, for them, "Congress is merely a platform for the development and enhancement of a personal brand, not an institution to honor and serve." In short, they're not really lawmakers, they're just entertainers constantly in search of (as CNN's Jake Tapper put it) "clicks and likes and Fox hits."
