July 26, 2005 Misc. Detective news ... Due to some other discussions in various forums, ATA has received inquiries regarding the overall status of Detective (a.k.a. Arthur Hailey's Detective). It appears it was recently picked up for distribution overseas, and thus, has subsequently premiered in a handful of countries. It has NOT, however, received an air date here in the U.S. (Some of you may remember and older film of Annabeth's, Mayday, which aired overseas but never aired - or was made available for purchase on DVD/video - in the U.S.). Interestingly, Hallmark Entertainment does have the film listed as one of its productions. This does NOT necessarily mean the film will ever air/be made available in the U.S. It could continue to take some time (similar to Knots) for this to be picked up by a U.S. network/distributor. But, for those interested, Hallmark Entertainment provides a complete synopsis of the film, offers extensive cast bios, and has screen captures of the film. (Thanks to Joel F. and Bob L. for the information, clarification and heads-up!)   || Have a great day! :)

July 8, 2005 Message from Annabeth ... :) Received word from Annabeth today to advise of a couple of things. Firstly, she has begun filming the new Showtime series in Rhode Island: "I've started shooting and feel very excited to begin this project, now tentatively called 'The Hill.'" Secondly (and with her schedule permitting), Annabeth will be sending along what we're tentatively calling "From the set ..." reports whilst on location so as to share her thoughts on how the various aspects of how filming are going, etc. So, be on the lookout. :) Thirdly, Annabeth wanted to let everyone know of a couple of recent independent film projects she completed prior to beginning work on the Showtime series: Gillery's Little Secret Mojave Phone Booth Some of you may recognize the director of Mojave Phone Booth (John Putch). He also directed Pursuit of Happiness. Both sites have extensive info and pictures about each film, so Annabeth encourages everyone to check them out!   || Have a great day! :)

July 7, 2005 Just a note ... Thoughts and prayers go out to London (and abroad) in light of the recent terrorist attack. Stay strong, friends. ||
