Or a Weatherman, I'm not sure which word is the proper one. Let's start with a song.

Really outsdanding performance.

I didn't write yesterday about every TV game show DC took part in, I have mixed feelings about them, of course a lot of people enjoy that kind of entertaintment and it was something DC did, that was important part of his job, maybe he enjoyed being on them, I don't know. 

In April  2003 he took part in Hollywood Squares, very popular game show, originally debuted in 1965, in 2013  ranked at no. 7, on the list of 60 greatest shows ever.

DC also took part in one of the most  popular American reality shows, The Celebrity Apprentice.  It was  season 11, each episode watched by nearly 9 million viewers, the program was hosted by Donald Trump.

Difficult to watch for us, and very difficult experience for David. He didn't expect that there would be a lot of preparations and promotions, everything took a lot of his time. The first task was to cook pizza for the charity, but DC's only big charity donation was from his daughter, Katie..He was bullied by another contestant and fired by Trump. What worse he couldn't say anything about it for two months, because that first episode was recorded in December 2010 and aired on March 6, 2011..

In January 2011 David Cassidy said in an interview posted later in March, "I'm a really good team player. That's what it takes to work in the theatre. That's what it takes to work in the band (..) I've never done any reality TV and I looked at it as - a) an opportunity to reach a lot of people, b) to try to rise a lot of money for the charity'

 Once more 'A'int No Sunshine' singing live in 2011. Breathtaking..

Let's watch at the end something very uplifting. Smiling and lauging David, 'working' on KTLA Morning News  on July 14, 1993. He ended up on this show by mistake, but that was fun.

Robyn Millan

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971. And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago.   I was truly sorry and sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope, The Monkees. But we for ever would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published, she said about David, "He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it o...

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

Two Weddings In Las Vegas

First 'Four Weddings and a Funeral'. The film premiered in the UK 30 years ago, on May 13, 1994.  A low budget film, made in 6 weeks, became unexpected success, all over the world, earned just mountains of money, and made of  Hugh Grant international star. It's also a film with a very strong David Cassidy's connection.  The script was written by Richard Curtis (born in 1956), whose partner (they married after many years in 2023), a popular broadcaster Emma Freud, was (and still is) a DC fan. She gave some interviews about her love for DC and meeting him in person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ogl0mA_15ys 163 000 views, this one scene. Someone wrote 6 years ago, 'RIP David Cassidy. We know we loved you'. We still do. Two weddings in Las Vegas. Beau Cassidy and his fiance, Stephanie, just got married there. Something different was planned, in Europe, in September. And according to Sue Shifrin, Las Vegas was the last minute decision and that's the reason Dav...
