[jtownraindancer]

hello! i would LOVE to watch jamestown but am a little apprehensive because of possible triggers? so i thought i'd ask! is there anything i should watch out for? in the vein of like... sexual assault, hate crimes (tho this is a given bc period piece but like. how violent would it get?), and frequency of character death? thank you!

​ Hello Anon!

Absolutely a fair question, and one I'm very happy to answer! I'll address each of these one-by-one, and if there are any other possible triggers you're wondering about, please feel free to ask~

This is going to spoil some of the show, so I'm putting my full reply below the cut.

​Sexual Assault:

Right off the top of my head, there is one very distinct instance of sexual assault, right in the beginnings of Season 1 (may even be Episode 1 if memory serves). The rape itself is not graphic- there's a build up, but the scene ends before anything is actually shown. However! The attack is a defining moment for quite a few of the main cast- relationships are formed based on reactions to it (all resoundingly in the victim's corner!), and it is mentioned off-and-on again throughout the series.

Hate Crimes:

I don't… I can't quite say there are many hate crimes as we would know them, but some general things to look out for…

There is a very tentative relationship between the Colonists & the Pamunkey Tribe, a tension which builds up into the final episode where a lot of characters are killed on screen- mostly background. (Season 3 was arguably the most graphic of the lot, starting with the private execution of an alleged "traitor" to the governor.)

​The slave trade hangs heavily over the series starting at the end of Season 1, an introduction that tastes even more bitter when it's discovered that they were acquired illegally (and against the wishes of a majority of the colonists). I… I have much I'd like to say about it, but to do so would spoil a lot of plot points later. I will say however that there's nothing particularly graphic in this end (and Pedro and Marie alone are worth watching the show for!)

For queerphobia, there… wasn't much? The most that comes of it are a few instances where Thomas & Jocelyn both make jabs at Nicholas for his 'tastes,' though in the end it's clear they both really do care for him. Also in regards to an intersex character, the only fault found in her is the deception that allowed him to come to Jamestown to begin with. There's also the strong implication that not only does another character remain open-minded about folks pursuing certain 'bedfellows,' but the possibility that he himself may be queer. (Kind of a blink-and-you-miss-it moment, but definitely there.)

Religion-wise, there is definitely a period-accurate bias towards Protestantism (and a hatred/suspicion of Catholics which will come up several times), and references are made about wanting to "convert" the indigenous population, but that's about the extent of it? Some characters do use ''Christianity'' as a cover, but uh… Spoilers on that end. Put succinctly… In spite of a period-accurate lean towards Protestantism, there are still a few characters who definitely are not of the same mind. In the main cast alone, I can think of at least three Jamestown residents who stand apart from the others in terms of spirituality (or lack thereof).

Violence:

While there's not a lot of gore in this show, there are certain scenes that can seem gruesome in the context. As I found this show through PBS, I wasn't expecting a lot of gore itself, but the implications involved, and the very rare, rare moments where things are actually shown, carry enough weight on their own. (There is one scene that comes to mind with a smuggler and some molten metal, but I couldn't seem to look away; Farlow was fucking terrifying. 💀)

Character Death:

Some great news! Most of the characters survive this series!

Bad news! The characters who do leave will probably hurt!

Would like to again offer a warning for the finale of Season 3, which leads into the very real beginnings of the Indian Massacre of 1622, a slaughter that took out nearly 1/4 of the Virginian colonists. The show does not get graphic, but the implications, and the brief hints we're shown on screen do plenty of damage.

Overall:

There were quite a few liberties taken with this show, and at times it feels vaguely soap opera-esque in the writing choices. But overall I did enjoy this one, and I would recommend it! Even if you decide to watch just for Alice, Verity, and Jocelyn, I would still ask you to give it a try because there are so many interesting characters to meet in this series, and it does offer a decent (if over-exaggerated) glimpse into life in Jamestown.

If you're still interested in giving Jamestown a whirl, I hope you enjoy it! (And please feel free to scream in my inbox and/or DMs about it.)

Thanks for the ask friend; I hope this helped, and if not, please don't hesitate to reach out. Love and light!

THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER

March 27, 1950

"The Man Who Came To Dinner” was a presentation of Lux Radio Theatre, broadcast on CBS Radio on March  27, 1950.

The Man Who Came to Dinner is a comedy in three by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. It debuted on October 16, 1939, at the Music Box Theatre in New York City, where it ran until 1941, closing after 739 performances. It then enjoyed a number of New York and London revivals. 

The play was adapted for a 1942 feature film, scripted by Philip G. Epstein and Julius J. Epstein and directed by William Keighley. The film featured Monty Woolley, Bette Davis, Ann Sheridan, Billie Burke, Jimmy Durante, Mary Wickes and Richard Travis. 

“The Man Who Came to Dinner” was previously presented on radio by Philip Morris Playhouse on July 10, 1942. Monty Woolley, who played the leading role in the film version, starred in the adaptation. It was broadcast again by Theatre Guild on the Air on ABC Radio November 17, 1946 starring Fred Allen. In 1949, “The Man Who Came to Dinner” was produced on “The Hotpoint Holiday Hour” starring Charles Boyer, Jack Benny, Gene Kelly, Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire, and Rosalind Russell. 

On October 13, 1954, a 60-minute adaptation was aired on the CBS Television series “The Best of Broadway.”  A “Hallmark Hall of Fame” production was broadcast n November 29, 1972 starring Orson Welles, Lee Remick (Maggie Cutler), Joan Collins (Lorraine Sheldon), Don Knotts (Dr. Bradley), and Marty Feldman (Banjo). The 2000 Broadway revival was broadcast by PBS on October 7, 2000, three days after the New York production closed, and was also released on DVD.

Synopsis ~ The story is set in the small town of Mesalia, Ohio in the weeks leading to Christmas in the late 1930s. The outlandish radio wit Sheridan Whiteside is invited to dine at the house of the well-to-do factory owner Ernest Stanley and his family. But before Whiteside can enter the house, he slips on a patch of ice outside the Stanleys' front door and injures his hip. Confined to the Stanleys' home in a wheelchair, Whiteside and his retinue of show business friends turn the Stanley home upside down!  But is he really injured? 

This adaptation was written by S.H. Barnett. The characters eliminated for this adaptation include Richard Stanley, John, Mrs. Dexter, and Mrs. McCutcheon.

The show is hosted by William Keighley, who directed the 1942 film adaptation.

Lux Radio Theatre (1935-55) was a radio anthology series that adapted Broadway plays during its first two seasons before it began adapting films (”Lux Presents Hollywood”). These hour-long radio programs were performed live before studio audiences in Los Angeles. The series became the most popular dramatic anthology series on radio, broadcast for more than 20 years and continued on television as the Lux Video Theatre through most of the 1950s. The primary sponsor of the show was Unilever through its Lux Soap brand.

CAST

Lucille Ball (Maggie Cutler) was born on August 6, 1911 in Jamestown, New York. She began her screen career in 1933 and was known in Hollywood as ‘Queen of the B’s’ due to her many appearances in ‘B’ movies. “My Favorite Husband” eventually led to the creation of “I Love Lucy,” a television situation comedy in which she co-starred with her real-life husband, Latin bandleader Desi Arnaz. The program was phenomenally successful, allowing the couple to purchase what was once RKO Studios, re-naming it Desilu. When the show ended in 1960 (in an hour-long format known as “The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour”) so did Lucy and Desi’s marriage. In 1962, hoping to keep Desilu financially solvent, Lucy returned to the sitcom format with “The Lucy Show,” which lasted six seasons. She followed that with a similar sitcom “Here’s Lucy” co-starring with her real-life children, Lucie and Desi Jr., as well as Gale Gordon, who had joined the cast of “The Lucy Show” during season two. Before her death in 1989, Lucy made one more attempt at a sitcom with “Life With Lucy,” also with Gordon.

Clifton Webb (Sheridan Whiteside) had appeared with Lucille Ball in the 1946 film The Dark Corner. He was nominated for three Oscars. Webb had played the role of Sheridan Whiteside on stage for two years.

Eleanor Audley (Mrs. Stanley) appeared in several episodes of Lucille Ball’s “My Favorite Husband” as mother-in-law Letitia Cooper. Audley was first seen with Lucille Ball as Mrs. Spaulding, the first owner of the Ricardo’s Westport home in “Lucy Wants to Move to the Country” (ILL S6;E15). She returned to play one of the garden club judges in “Lucy Raises Tulips” (ILL S6;E26). Audley appeared one last time with Lucille Ball in a “Lucy Saves Milton Berle” (TLS S4;E13) in 1965.

Ruth Perrott (Sarah) played Katie the maid on Lucille Ball’s radio show “My Favorite Husband.” On “I Love Lucy” she played Mrs. Pomerantz in “Pioneer Women” (ILL S1;E25), was one of the member of the Wednesday Afternoon Fine Arts League in “Lucy and Ethel Buy the Same Dress” (ILL S3;E3), and played a nurse when “Lucy Goes to the Hospital” (ILL S2;E16).

Betty Lou Gerson is best remembered as the voice of Cruella De Ville in the original Disney film One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961).

Stephen Dunn had appeared with Lucille Ball in Miss Grant Takes Richmond (1949). 

John Milton Kennedy (Announcer)

‘DINNER’ TRIVIA

The same date as this radio adaptation (March 27, 1950), original star Monty Wooley arrived in Vancouver to perform in the play. 

This broadcast aired the day after the “My Favorite Husband” episode “Liz’s Radio Script” also starring Lucille and Ruth Perrott. 

Lucille Ball’s good friend and frequent co-star Mary Wickes was typecast as a nurse due to her breakthrough role as Nurse Preen in the Broadway, film, and television versions of The Man Who Came To Dinner.’  She does not play Nurse Preen in this adaptation. The character is given the first name Geraldine. 

Lucille Ball previously appeared on “Lux Radio Theatre” for a November 10, 1947 adaptation of her film The Dark Corner (1946). 

The first commercial talks about how Lux soap is gentle on stockings, like those worn by Betty Grable in Wabash Avenue. 

The second commercial (between acts two and three) interviews actress Joan Miller, talking about the Warners picture Stage Fright, and how Lux helped keep the costumes looking great. 

In the post show interviews, Clifton Webb promotes his next film Cheaper By The Dozen.

The final Lux commercial talks about how movie star Hedy Lamarr uses Lux. 

The program presents a special address from president of the Red Cross, General George C. Marshall.  The American Red Cross was mentioned on “My Favorite Husband” and Red Cross posters were frequently scene decorating the sets on “I Love Lucy.”

The ending of radio’s “My Favorite Husband” episode “Mother-in-Law” (November 4, 1949) starring Lucille Ball is identical to the ending of The Man Who Came To Dinner.

In “Lucy and Viv Reminisce” (TLS S6;E16) on January 1, 1968, while nursing Lucy, who has a broken leg, Viv slips and also breaks her leg. She says she feels just like a female version of The Man Who Came To Dinner.

“Vivian Sues Lucy” (TLS S1;E10) on December 3, 1962 also has a plot that resembles The Man Who Came To Dinner. Viv injures herself due to Lucy’s careless housekeeping, and is bedridden. Lucy goes out of her way to cater to her every whim, so that she won’t sue! 

Although the play is fictional, it draws on real life figures and events for its inspiration. 

Sheridan Whiteside was modeled on Alexander Woollcott.

Beverly Carlton was modeled on Noël Coward.

Banjo was modeled on Harpo Marx, and there is a dialogue reference to his brothers Groucho and Chico. When Sheridan Whiteside talks to Banjo on the phone, he asks him, "How are Wackko and Sloppo?"

Professor Metz was based on Dr. Gustav Eckstein of Cincinnati (with cockroaches substituted for canaries), and Lorraine Sheldon was modeled after Gertrude Lawrence.

The character of Harriet Sedley, the alias of Harriet Stanley, is an homage to Lizzie Borden. The popular jump-rope rhyme immortalizing Borden is parodied in the play.

Radio critic Dick Diespecker was not exactly enthusiastic about this adaptation. 

The announcer reminds viewers that next week “Lux Radio Theatre” will present “Come To the Stable” starring Loretta Young and Hugh Marlowe

The announcer promotes Lucille Ball’s new picture Fancy Pants starring Bob Hope.

MASTERPIECE Anuncia a Segunda Temporada de Miss Scarlet and The Duke

 A MASTERPIECE e a Element 8 Entertainment anunciaram a segunda temporada de Miss Scarlet and The Duke (Srta. Scarlet e o Duque, em livre tradução), a popular série de mistério estrelando Kate Phillips como a destemida Eliza, a primeira detetive mulher na Londres vitoriana e Stuart Martin como seu amigo de infância e potencial interesse amoroso, o inspetor William Wellington, conhecido como Duque. Foram 3,6 milhões de tranmissões.

“Miss Scarlet and The Duke caiu instantaneamente nas graças do público”, diz Susanne Simpson, produtora executiva da MASTERPIECE. “Foi impossível resistir ao tom alegre da série e aos atraentes personagens tão maravilhosamente interpretados por Kate Phillips e Stuart Martin. Estamos encantados que a série voltará para uma segunda temporada.”

Em uma performance definida como “cativante” pelo IndieWire, Phillips interpreta Eliza Scarlet (The Crown, Wolf Hall), filha de um investigador interpretado por Kevin Doyle (Downton Abbey), que introduziu a moça nas artes da investigação. Quando ele morre, ela é deixada sem dinheiro e decide se tornar uma detetive particular para se sustentar. Infelizmente, apenas homens são detetives, mas um amigo da família na Scotland Yard, chamado de Duque e interpretado por Martin (Jamestown) oferece ajuda. Aí começa uma parceria que se transforma em algo mais íntimo. “Eles vão ou não vão?” se torna o assunto de maior especulação entre os espectadores.

A roteirista e criadora Rachael New diz: “Estou extremamente feliz com a notícia de que Miss Scarlet and The Duke voltará para a segunda temporada. Tenho tanto reservado para Duque, Eliza e companhia. Com ainda mais ação, aventura e, é claro, uma boa dose de romance, será uma temporada fantástica. Os fãs vão AMAR!”

“Encontramos nossos parceiros dos sonhos na MASTERPIECE e distribuição da PBS”, diz Lenahan Ishimoto, gerente-sócia da Element 8. “Eles acolheram a série e nos deram de presente a licença criativa para continuar a revelar toda a magia tão cuidadosamente elaborada por Rachael New para Eliza, Duque e seu eclético grupo de amigos. Mal podemos esperar para ver o que os aguarda.”

A segunda temporada de Miss Scarlet and the Duke está prevista para estrear na MASTERPIECE na PBS em 2022.

 A segunda temporada de Miss Scarlet and The Duke é uma co-produção da Element 8 Entertainment e da MASTERPIECE em associação com Patrick Irwin e Todd Berger. Criada por Rachael New e escrita pela mesma e por Ben Edwards, tem direção geral de Steve Hughes é distribuída pela PBSd.

14, 18, and 20 for the year asks!

14 - Favorite book you read this year?

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson absolutely. I have fallen very hard into the Stormlight Archive and just finished WoR this week but I’m not letting myself start the next one until finals are over. It took me a while to get into it but after a certain point I’ve been binging them whenever I get the chance. The characterizations and worldbuilding and prose and scope it’s all so so so good. this is what I want to write like when I grow up. 

18 - A memorable meal this year?

Over Thanksgiving break, my family visited the historical dig sites at Jamestown - it was the first permanent English settlement in America and they built a fort on the banks of the rive, which has since eroded the bank and washed out. The archeologists there have excavated the fort and figured out where the palisade should have been and reconstructed a model on top of the site, so you can walk around there. We had a picnic PB&J lunch sitting on the bank of the river, right on top of the place where they had gone through a starving time that killed most of their original population, and that irony was not lost on me.

20 - What’s something you learned this year

you can’t plan for everything, and sometimes you’ve gotta take things minute by minute to get through them. I normally have contingency plans for contingency plans and all of those got consistently scrapped this year, so I’ve had to learn how to adapt and keep working on the spot without having the luxury of time to process everything that’s going on. 

Thanks for the ask! :)

Jamestown's Dark Winter | PBS America

Cannibalism in the colony~

Jamestown, Virginia. The site of the first permanent English colony the Americas settled in 1607 and the home of the archaeological site “Historic Jamestowne” today. It has long been speculated that the harsh conditions faced by the colonists during the winter of 1609, often referred to as the “starving time,” might have made them desperate enough to participate in the unthinkable, and perhaps even commit murder to do so.

Archaeologists have been excavating in Jamestown for more than 20 years. In April 2012, a team of Historic Jamestowne archeologists discovered something surprising in their excavation. In the trash layer of a cellar, among the butchered animal bones and household trash discarded by the Jamestown colonists, they found the mutilated skull and severed leg of a 14-year-old English girl dating back to 1609. What can these bones tell us about what really happened at Jamestown?

Number 4 with Samuel Castell 🥺

OOOoooooOooooooOoooOOOOooo! Outside of Songbird I’ve done no writing for Jamestown or Samuel so OF COURSE!! Thanks for asking, nonnie! Since there is a huuuge lack of fanfic content for Jamestown on here and it’s a crime!!

So for context, I’ve decided that Reader (AKA you reading this!) is one of the “maids to make wives” and to make this a fem! Reader, so hopefully you will be okay with that decision!

“Y/N, we’ll be married in about two days, are you nervous?” he asked, rowing the boat forward.

You sat politely at the end. You had been quiet much of the ride, hand folded on your lap, looking at the wide green trees and flower river of this new world. 

“I’m, uhm...yes, I am nervous, Master Castell, to be honest, I’ve been nervous about the wedding the day I stepped on that boat and they listed your name with mine,” you confessed.

Your heart raced every time you saw this man. You knew this was the sole purpose of traveling here: to marry this man, a man you barely knew. 

Would you be a good spouse? What was he really like? What if a different, mean side of him showed long after the “I do’s?”

So far, Samuel had been more than gentlemanly. He gifted you with a daffodil made of stone as a Love Token. He invited you to dine with him a few times and to sit next to him in church. He walked you over to the house where you would be staying until the wedding and made sure all of your needs were met and that your hosts were treating you well. But the sight of him and of the approaching date always made your breath hitch and your hands shake.

“I’m...I’m nervous about getting married too...” he confessed, leaning back with the next row of the boat.

“You too, Master Castell? You always seem so calm all the time!” you replied.

“Well, I’m about to marry the sweetest, prettiest maid from that ship so I want to make sure she’s happy and I’m good enough for her,” he blurted, though you noticed even.

Your jaw dropped and you grinned, looking down at your hands.

“Why, uhm...thank you!” 

He ended the course of his boat ride at a dock near the village.

“Did you like the boat ride? You can see some of the prettiest places here at this time and...I know it gets hot here, so it’s nice and cool.” he blabbered, you noticed there was a little stutter.

You truly were not alone in your feelings.

“I did, Samuel! It was so beautiful and peaceful, I enjoyed it!” you cheered. You noticed that his smile widened when you said his first name.

“You’ve never called me that yet, Y/N” he said, as the boat got to the dock.

“I had to get used to saying it sometime,” you shrugged.

As he secured his boat, he offered you his hands to help you out. You took them, guiding your steps to dry, secure land. 

Looking down on you, suddenly he leaned down and quickly pecked your lips. You were in such shock and it was so quick you weren’t even sure it happened.

“Thank you...Y/N. I know that ws forward of me but...I was just glad about the boat ride and everything so, I’m sorry if I...”

“It’s alright!” you assured him.

Then you placed your hands in front of you and looking up at him, shyly, you said “I liked it, could you do it again?”

He obliged, leaning in and cupping your cheek for a longer kiss.

Marrying him didn’t seem as scary anymore. The wedding couldn’t come sooner.
