Ok it is that time of the year, with the new season premieres all over the place, and TV Guide spouting Falls Hottest Stars and our Ron is not one of them. So, "yeah" we are all feeling a bit low and definitely need a pick me up. So, please don't scold me, for not taking our loss seriously, but let's imagine that Steven Bochco puts the whole series into one long movie and sends it out on tour ala "Rocky Horror Picture show" to be shown from midnight to morning. Now everyone attends dressed as a character from the show and brings some props. (for example, everyone must bring a handkerchief with 4 holes in it that we can wave when Terry is sitting there on the roof. We could all yell "Liar liar pants on fire") The "premiere" of this could be at our "Las Vegas reunion of the BJJC, right Carl?) so we could all attend opening night. And since there are a lot of male parts Jim, Terry, Tom, Marty. Fisk, Sonny, Pete,many perps etc. and we can't leave that all up to Carl, we may cross- dress. (as long as Carl doesn't try to come dressed as MaryBeth). I have already decided I am going as Jim since I have a long green raincoat and sunglasses and I am bringing my dog (well truth be known all three are coming since I can't dissapoint any of them and tell them they are not playing Hank. They are "very sensitive") And whoever decides to come as Christie, as Ginger Rogers, gets to lead the conga line out at the end as we dance to "I'm in Heaven". So let the fun begin, who are you coming as, what are you wearing and what props etc. do you think we should all have in our gym bags?) Really it doesn't hurt so much if you keep laughing.

I call dibs on Fisk. For some odd reason the thought of cross dressing is very appealing to me. I will put on a nice suit with a conservative tie. I will wear a bald wig and carry a deli sandwich. My tag line is going to be "pissed off stepsisters." Every time Jim and Marty go at it that is what I am going to yell. Other than that I won't have much to say, I will be gently sarcastic and let my expressions do the talking. That's me as lieutenant Fisk, suspenders and all, pretty realistic huh?

Karma for you Mouse for being the first to jump in. I can't believe how fast you got into character. That costume is so realistic. Ill look forward to hearing you scolding Jim and Marty, starting right at the "if you can take this gun" scene.

Oh, this is tooooo funny! ;D Gee, how come no one wants to come as Leonard Mattus or the Chief of Ds? (Because we're all too nice, that's why.) Hmmm. I could come as Christie, but I really did hate her wardrobe with the exception of the Sofa King Cool T-shirt, although the idea of strolling around all night with a big old glass of white wine in my hand is very appealing. I could come as Mary Beth but I'd have to whiiiiiiine all night, which also lets out Letitia. Or I could come as Karen, but none of my clothes are tight enough. Maybe I'll try a little Housemouse crossdressing and come as Marty? Which means I have to be mean to rducasey all . . . day . . . long, rearrange the furniture, stick my foot out in front of the cane, spit in Hank's water bowl, roll my eyes constantly , and yell "Bottom bitch!" every time Karen appears onscreen. Uh, maybe not. Anyone want to be Sam Berglass and throw themselves off the balcony?

How many times will we all get to shout "Absolutely!"?

And during the Marty-Jim confrontation in the locker room we will all recite the lines with them. (Come on now, admit it, you know every line.)" Is it my dandruff shampoo that gave me away?", "Good thing we're not dogs", and "Why don't you find a new home. No one wants you here. This place ran fine without you, Can't you see that" and of course "See you tomorrow". Then we'll all shake our heads, laugh and sit back down.

Is it my dandruff shampoo that gave me away?", "Good thing we're not dogs", and "Why don't you just leave. No one wants you here. This place ran fine without you, Can't you see that" and of course "See you tomorrow". Then we'll all shake our heads, laugh and sit back down. I know that technically I am not actually in that scene, but can I pleeasssee stand outside the locker room yelling "pissed off stepsisters?!!" It is my tag line after all.

We must find a moment to ask, "Are we Alone?" Perhaps when Karen enters?

You can jump up and say that from your seat at any time you feel it is appropriate. And that should be a lot of times. Bring comfortable shoes cause everbody's dancing by the end. Oh and one other thing, when the perp in the cell is harassing Jim could the whole theater please say "Hey Blond Dude.......please?

Is it possible to be a character that is key to the story line, but never seen? If so - I'm Anne Donnelly!

Oh boy, but you may have to stay in the bathroom, but be prepared to spill your guts. We want to know 'every little thing" and "every big thing".

You got it - Since I am still wondering why it took Jimmy so long to tell me he was married, I may just be willing to spill my guts if you give me enough to drink. (Usually I am tipsy after one glass of wine, so that shouldn't be too hard!)

(for example, everyone must bring a handkerchief with 4 holes in it that we can wave when Terry is sitting there on the roof. We could all yell "Liar liar pants on fire") You hooked me with the props. White glitter - everyone tosses out a handful at the beginning (sets the mood) when Christie's brushing off Dunbar's jacket (and now we know how he knows the fragrance). If there's any left, use it for subsequent Russo/Fisk and Russo/Dunbar dandruff scenes. Little (lightweight) cardboard boxes tossed during the "were you looking for an urn" line. Coins to drop. "Do that again. Drop the coin." (How large of a bag of tricks are we allowed to go into the theatre with, huh? And who's doing cleanup?) Someone else has to figure out all the witty audience comments, though. I like the Liar, Liar one. Kyt

More props to bring in your gym bag: -Dollar bills to throw at Misty at THE LeSabre, (Just use monopoly money). -Air freshener for when Sonny arrives -Clay Simmons right arm. For when Christie says "You threatened to rip off his arm." We can all stand up and throw the arms and say "He did!"

so,, i'm coming in late on this,, but are there any characters left ( don't care gender ) for me? but i don't want to be chief of d's,, he's a prick,,, and constipated,,and suffers from short man's syndrome and is balding,, and probably doesn't have a dog,, and if he did,, he doesn't kiss it good nite,,
as far as props.. let's not forget the water squirt bottles,, it rains in most of the episodes in the evening shots,,
and we could all throw lettuce when clay says that they're serving iceberg and rouquefort,, gee,, i'm so impressed,, i dont' know how to spell it
we could all have beer bottles whenever he has one,, and drink when he drinks
