Too much yak yak intro...just get on with it.

Cheers for this podcast! I enjoyed listening to real facts

Two of the best ever god bless

As they say, 'There will never be another Judy Garland'. Has anyone seen the best Bio'p ever of Judy? 'Me And My Shadow'. Absolutely an amazing 'spooky' likeness and performance of two actresses playing Judy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJaydmOOn8xgsMU

Nobody and I mean nobody, like our Judy.

the main plot (football player) is cute and funny, but the musical numbers are awful. Thank God MGM had better composers & choreographers.

yes

Джин Келли! Раскрыл в ней огонь❤!

Where did you all go! I need my Gab Fix! Love and Light to all of you!

I enjoy these gab fests about Judy but Sarah is very hard to understand.

なんて豪華なショーなんでしょう！

enjoyed watching and learning lots of interesting things, you guys are great!

Even before her variety show, Judy had had a rather tumultuous relationship with CBS. She had previously sued the network for breach of contract. So, the fact that some of the top execs, like James Aubrey, had it in for her makes more sense. Also, Judy doing a WEEKLY series was always a mistake IMHO. A series 2 or 3 specials a season would've been a much better use of her talent, as each one would've probably have been a ratings hit. Anyhow, TV business was very different 60 years ago

Dorothy Gale and Glinda the Good, together again for the first time! 🙂

I really wonder if this was what put the idea in Mervyn LeRoy's head to cast Judy as Dorothy Gale. I mean, look at her when she first appears! That's darn close to the dress that W.W. Denslow drew Dorothy in.

Judy Garland sings this wonderful original song Good Morning written for the 1939 MGM movie, Babes in Arms Perfectly! I Love This Great Song! Best Version EVER! I Love Judy Garland! I was born in the late fall of 1978. I own this 1939 MGM movie Babes in Arms on DVD! Judy Garland started filming this movie the first week of March 1939. Judy Garland had completed filming the 1939 MGM Beautiful, Beloved, Brilliant, Classic, Clever, Delightful, Excellent, Fantastic, Grand, Iconic, Marvelous, Outstanding, Perfectly Cast, Spectacular, Splendid, Wonderful, Fantasy Musical Movie, The Wizard of Oz, in the middle of February 1939.

Outstanding!

I loved Julie Garland add Mickey Rooney. I've seen every musical they made together❤🎭🌟🎤🌹🥰🎬💖

Well, Well! I think I have been zapped into another world, consider me hooked 😉

I still love the movie but there were a lot of bad things that happened from the movie.

Toooooo much talk

Thank you so much for this wonderful discussion and showcasing. I've been a fan since the age of four - 1966. Judy is that rare kind of star one can rediscover time and again throughout their life, and she's just as fresh, invigorating, and spellbinding as the first time you fell in love with her. She has to be the greatest entertainer of the 20th century. I recently began binge-watching her TV show, and I cannot believe it was cancelled. She looks amazing, she's in great voice, the guest list is beyond impressive, the sets are creative, and I love the physical freedom she has not only with guests, but also during the closing Born in a Trunk sequences. To Kelly's point, she still reaches new audiences. I was a 5th grade teacher for 25 years and used clips from Judy's films to illustrate specific vocabulary and concepts, and the students were always completely engaged. By the time they were assigned biographic essays, never a year went by that several chose Judy Garland as their subject.

Judy Garland is always so fascinating. Of course her singing and talent is just beyond expression but she's always interesting as a person too.

Just wow! Loved this interview. What an amazing guest. 😊

Andy went all out for Judy, made her feel like the star she was, sets, her songs, and jokes and everything. Total class. She couldn't sing as well as she used to at this point, going flat, but nobody cared, they loved her and her comedic timing was perfect. During the Clark Gable thing, she busted Andy up with her serious stare, she never flinched and broke character. He lost it laughing. I felt their embrace toward the end was very sincere.

My God, how much I stole. We have an iron curtain. I'm from Russia! ❤❤

Ask PWK where Gene Kelly is buried even his children Timothy, Kerry and Bridget don't know nor his many friends!!

Judy Lives on in our Hearts forever!❤

MGM at this point had no idea what to do with relatively newcomer Judy Garland, so for her very first full length feature film, they lent her out to 20th Century Fox. Needless to say, after watching her performance in Fox's 1936 Pigskin Parade, for the next 14 years, they never lent her out again. At the time, audiences were amazed by this young girls mature voice, and MGM knew it had something special on it's hands.

Does anyone have any idea how long the intermission was?

Such an underrated pairing.

When they talk about the sets being elevated, surely the trapdoor for the witch was the soundstage floor?

Excellent choices. You know that in the Harvey Girls, the Madame who runs the rival establishment to the Harvey Girls is Angela Landsbury who also sings and dances a short number.

I revisited this film over the weekend and my goodness I greatly enjoyed it! I definitely rank it high on my favorite Garland films. My sister watched it with me and afterwards she was like “I wonder if this movie is on Blu-ray?” Which we discovered it’s not. At least not in the US 😢

the intro slayed

24:55 BOMBASTIC SIDE EYE

What an extraordinary woman 🤍 She Is still an amazing artist 🎵 And yes very nice person ❤

According to her biography, Judy was unwell and obviously very thin for the first number, "I Wish I Were in Love Again." The second number, "Johnny One Note" was added in several months later in retakes when preview audiences said that they wanted another number from Judy. She has much-needed weight and vitality after the help and support of some friends in Hollywood. ❤

Fantastic episode! Fantastic pod! So happy to have found it

This is so cute ❤

Love Judy's red torreador outfit...!

I have a question. Is it truth or myth that Toto aka Terry was the dog of Warner Leroy son of producer/ director ?

I just ordered John Fricke's book "Judy " on audible. Loving it.

That Yellow Brick Road moment had me tearing up 😭

Watching part 3. Absolutely fascinating 🎉
