I'd like to start by saying that within the first year of my acting career I was in five different television shows and one movie. Each and every one of those acting rolls were very different and I enjoyed them all. Therefore, it's rather interesting to go back and share with all of you an early time in my acting career as well as my personal life. Hope you're with me as I'm Absolutely with You. One of my favorites was a role in a Television series known as "GIDGET" starring a fresh newcomer known as SALLY FIELD.So, my friends, Here We Go !! Today's Podcast Episode is: "The War Between Gidget and Me" May I say, I was so excited actually "over the moon would be more like it" when I learned I'd been chosen by a known and respected Director, E. W. Swackhammer, to play Patty Cromwell; a somewhat snippy-snooty girl who thought she was "top of the line" in school. A girl that would get everything she wanted, and of course thought she was God's gift to any boy or guy. Although, before I continue with Gidget, I'd like to tell a short & kind of silly story, actually, to me, a funny story. I want to talk about what in particular, can happen behind the scenes, on sets, and on television. There are times, once in a while, those unusual things occur and I want to share one of them, especially IF they're unusual or Funny! Working with Directors can be lots of fun, sometimes difficult but always interesting. Why is that? Because there are times when the actor goes off script and is so far into the character that he or she is bringing to life more than the written script conveys. Check "Bewitched Episode #4 Agnes Moorhead vs Director". I recall a specific director/No Name & not Gidget, who was in a good mood and seemed as if he was very relaxed and that, my friends, can be a good thing. Right!!Most directors are spot-on serious, but I want to share something off the charts. There was a time, that one specific director was directing me in a scene and everything seemed to be going just peachy keen and fine. When all of a sudden he began to kind of giggle and then, out of nowhere yelled "CUT" in a firm voice in the middle of my scene which made Me nervous that I had done something wrong. Basically, I was so unsure as to Why he stopped everything. The director kept "Eyeing ME" which of course made Me feel as if I'd made a mistake. Or if someone else had done something because IT most assuredly was NOT I. You may not believe that I soon found out that someone, whom I didn't know, possibly a crew member, had Passed Wind and obviously had a gas problem that this director heard.Now, as I mentioned earlier, I had not heard anything, although our director HAD heard something and was very upset. To add insult to injury, he firmly said "whoever did it ... LEAVE NOW". Not a single sole walked out or confessed which irritated him even more and like a dog sniffing for a bone, he got up and looked around although not one person owned up to it. Not one person even Looked Guilty and why for what... I surely didn't know. I thought to myself it must be an inside joke. I mean I didn't know what to do or say and others were also shrugging their shoulders as if to say "I didn't do it" WHATEVER "It" was.Please recognize that unexpectedly and to my knowledge, there wasn't anyone confessing... what the heck are they or anyone supposed to be confessing?? Anyhow finally a person next to me whispered "Somebody farted ... I missed that, somebody what? Sorry, I just didn't hear you, what's happening? I couldn't hear you. I truly couldn't and On top of that, I knew that many were doing their best to hold back laughter and at this point, including me. the whole thing was redick. And another thing, Why was everyone looking around at everyone else??
