Years ago I worked on the movie Witness to the Execution with Sean whatshername and Tim Daly. The whole premise was a PPV execution. I remember the fake electric chair sitting in the middle of the Astrodome. At the time it seemed outlandish but now not so much. I'd buy a ticket.
That's crazy. I've never seen that movie. It's crazy how many old movies/TV shows that seemed outlandish at the time are now feeling possible. Peak clown world lol
"Witness to the Execution wants to say Important Things about capital punishment and media greed. To do that, however, you need a point of view, and this is something Witness never seems to have thought through."
Me too. At the time I really loved Tim Daly. I was working in the production office one day and Tim called in. For some dumb reason I didn't believe it was him. I thought it was someone playing a joke on me. So I was like, "Oh ok, TIM, what can I do for you?" I was mortified when I realized it was really him. There was something really creepy about that electric chair in the middle of the Astrodome though every time I passed by. Just gave me the creeps.

I did love Wings though when I was younger.
