The 8th Annual Favourite TV Show Episode Blogathon: In Memory of Paddy Lee
The 8th Annual Favourite TV Show Episode Blogathon has arrived. For those unfamiliar with the Favourite TV Show Episode Blogathon, it is a blogathon in which each blogger posts about one of their favourite episodes from a TV show. This year we have a wide variety of entries, spanning several decades and several genres.
I am dedicating this year's blogathon to the memory of Patricia Nolan-Hall, known to her friends as Paddy Lee. Paddy was well-known in the classic film and classic TV community, and her blog Caftan Woman was widely read in the classic film and TV community. She was known for her love and enthusiasm of classic film and television, and her posts reflected that love and enthusiasm. In addition to writing her own blog, Paddy read many blogs and often commented on them. She was known for her sunny disposition and was always supportive of her fellow classic film and TV bloggers and fans. Paddy was able to complete her post for this year's Favourite TV Show Episode Blogathon and arranged to have her daughter Janet publish it this week. Paddy has participated in every single Favourite TV Show Episode Blogathon from the beginning, and I know that she always enjoyed it. Sadly, her post for this year's blogathon (which is on the Perry Mason episode "The Case of the Sausalito Sunrise") is her final blog post. Anyway, I am grateful to have known Paddy and grateful for her support all these years. I can safely speak for the entire classic film and TV show fan community when I saw that we all loved Paddy Lee.
For those of you who are participating in the blogathon, I ask that you link to this page. I will be updating this page with links to the various blog posts that are part of this blogathon throughout the weekend. If you want a graphic for your post, I have several on the announcement page here.
Without further ado, here are this year's posts.
