Boone Vincent , Roland Pond and The Partridge Family (again)

-

2003 and 2004 were another very busy years with a lot of  projects. Sometimes it's hard to keep up with David Cassidy. Concerts, tv roles and tv appearances, horses and charities. He looked so happy and satisfied...Another acting role - a happy David Cassidy.

Malcolm In The Middle, it was an extremely popular tv series, known all over the world. Also at my home. My teenage daughters loved watching it together. I remember bursts of laughter behind the closed doors..I didn't watch it because those years between 2002 -2007 were the most difficult in my life , and they are like a big black hole in my memory. I remember only pain , and I really can understand why DC didn't play songs from his RCA albums..It was just hard to remember.

Anyway later I've seen this episode many times, so funny, always mades me laugh, really great acting. David was fantastic as a star of Las Vegas , Boone Vincent. That episode was aired on November 2, 2004, on NBC. David Cassidy : 'I drew from my experience of meeting the most egoistical, egocentric human beings who ever dawned on stage. Boone is so truly full of himself. He's the epitome of really bad taste, in a Vegas kinda way, but he thinks he's very hip.'

Bryan Cranston, who played a father of that amazing family, and also directed that episode, has very fond memories of David.. maybe just read it for  yourself..it's very touching..

On April 2, 2004 was aired an episode of Kim Possible , called 'Oh Boyz' , you can find it on YT (not difficult) , season 2 episode 045..DC's character was called  Roland Pond. Kim Possible was animated action-comedy adventure tv series for Disney Channel. DC was great and funny.  

In 2004 an idea appeared for the remake of The Partridge Family. VH1 launched a reality show called 'In Search Of The Partridge Family' and David became one of the co-executive producers. At first he was against the project, but later he took part in it, and helped to choose a new 'Keith'. It was also an opportunity to meet and work with Shirley and Danny, and Suzanne and Dave Madden and Brian.. DC said : ''I care about TPF legacy. We're going to do everything to make this good, but if it goes a wrong way, I want to be able to say -'Stop please, don't do this.' (September23, 2004, W.Keck 'Feathers Fly When These Birds Reunite' www.usatoday.com.)

The  reality show was aired from October 17, on Sunday evenings and the new Laurie became..15  year old Emily Stone - later as Emma Stone she became a movie star, and an Academy Award winner. The pilot was aired on January 22, 2005. But that was all, and the show didn't go on air..I'm not surprised..there was only one The Partridge Family

Kay Lenz, an Actress

Don't get me wrong, I'm not writing today's blog just to gossip about DC's private life, it's because I always admired that amazing woman, Kay Ann Lenz. She had birthday yesterday. 3 years younger than David, a few years older than a typical DC's fan.  In the 70s I heard quite a lot about Kay Lenz . She was very popular in Poland, like the rest of the cast of 'Rich Man, Poor Man'. That tv series was shown in my country I think in 1978, and everybody watched it, also a lot was written about the cast. So one day I read that Kay's husband was a former teen idol, David Cassidy. There was also a pic and I thought that it was just wonderful, I thought they were the most beautiful couple in the world. There was something very moving about Kay. I thought she was different than typical American actress. Such beautiful eyes, but her beauty wasn't an ordinary kind, not for everybody so to speak. When I was a teen I couldn't put in words what I thought a

They Said I Changed A Lot..

Let's first listen to something which was not released, why they didn't want David singing that song is a great mystery for me. Listening to his young, sincere, innocent and magical voice is one in a kind moving experience. You can just imagine David sitting next to you, with his guitar...and.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PbghG6czuw&t=6s Amazing. And of course we believe in David Cassidy and love songs. When I became a real DC's fan in 2018, there was something I used to discuss a lot with my English friend B. How David Cassidy kept changing. A completely different person in each decade. Or even more often. It was something difficult to understand for me. The many faces of David. Each album different from the previous one, different style and even his voice.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gvxt1WgaA B. thought there was nothing unusual about how David was changing, and I simply didn't follow his career from the beginning, I didn't grow with him, I didn&#

'I Just Hated Being In The Show..'

Last week someone posted a screenshot of the article from May 1974, unfortunately without the date or the name of the paper. Written by a popular journalist Roderick Gilchrist, I think it was Daily Express. We can read that this interview took place at London Weekend Television's Building, on the day before the DC's last concert in Manchester.  And David said, "I feel like the door to the cage has just been opened. And, any minute now I'm going to be able to fly right away from my prison. I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel because I'll be free again.." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG0hjhwKx5s His prison..Of course there have been other teen idols in the history of pop culture, but somehow for those from the 70s it was like someone put a curse on them. Nothing David Cassidy recorded later in life hasn't changed a bit that first opinion some people had of him and his music. My FB friend, Laurie Eby has written, "I researched 'New Y
