So far Ive only watched about four or five episodes (frog prince, rumplestiltskin, rapunzle, nightengale, and maybe one more...). I picked up the whole series on DVD from an Amazon.com sale and have been thoroughly enjoying it, I just have so many films and tv shows to catch up on that I dont get to watch it as often as I would like. Ill keep you updated after I see the Frank Zappa one.

I am very much looking forward to the Christopher Lee episode as I too am a fan of his work.

Are you talking about the small person who played Knick Knack in Man with the Golden Gun?

From what Ive read (which was just a discussion on IMDB about her) is that she left Hollywood to become kind of a shut in/recluse in a suburb of Texas. She is known throughout the town as a friendly lady and gladly invited a news reporter in to talk with her. Unfortunately it was one of those sensationalist types from the national enquirer. He reported that she had gone off the deep end and was going on and on about aliens and the end of the world and all that. Someone on IMDB said he contacted the guy who wrote the article. He told the IMDB poster about how cordial Shelly was with him, being very inviting and warm. But that he wanted to get the story out about some of her more bizarre fascinations. Take it for what you will. Id wager she is doing just fine, maybe a lil out there but no more than some people in my family who are obsessed with such things, LOL.
