Author Topic: Villa Theatre Makes a New TV show Cameo Greg Anderson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 766 From: Ogden Valley, Utah Registered: Nov 1999 posted 01-29-2004 11:47 AM                        The Warner Brothers TV network has a teen-and-parent Soap Opera called Everwood which is produced on film in the Salt Lake City area. This week's episode starts with a little scene at the Villa Theatre. I know the scene was shot in late November or early December 2003, more than 9 months after Carmike closed the Villa and stripped the interior of its useful contents. It's nice to know that, when the lights are on, the Villa's exterior still looks as good as it did before it closed. And perhaps we should thank the art department at Everwood for fixing this side of the marquee, which had one of its white panels missing just a few months ago. (This week's episode will be rerun on Sunday afternoon. I don't recommend the entire soap opera story but if you want to just watch the first couple of minutes of the show you'll see the entire appearance of the Villa Theatre.)  |  IP: Logged Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 01-29-2004 01:17 PM                     All those WB dramas suck so bad. Except for Smallville which would be dumb if it wasn't Superman. In fact, most new TV shows just suck period. The age of good "sitcom" television died with Married with Children. The only good show on now is Southpark, the rest are just remakes of remakes of remakes, that's why I spend most of my time on history and dicovery/science channel. cool about the theatre though.  |  IP: Logged Scott D.

But you just need to watch them for their content and not their premise. Just the same thing with movies. Movies are being remade over and over and over again. How many "Teenage Romp Flicks" can you make? How many Spy Movies can there be? Even the some of the "art" films are recycling premises. It's all about the content and the twist put on the familiar idea.  |  IP: Logged
