Radioland Murders, A Poll Annoyance, And More...
First of all, thanks to those on my friends list that wished me a happy birthday. And thank you for the virtual gift, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Yesterday, on Encore they showed Radioland Murders. Has anyone on my friends list ever heard of it? From what I remember, when it was originally released in 1993 it was a huge flop, but I loved it. I may have been one of the few that actually went to the theatre to see it, or that remembers it at all.
And a little more nostalgia—who on my friends list remembers the host of the kids cartoons in the late 80’s/early 90’s? Jill And Kool K on Fox Kids, back when it was Fox 23 KBSI? They are apparently so obscure that there’s not a Wikipedia entry for them—and a Google search turns up 0 results.
On another note—unless it’s just GJ having a weird fluke—the poll I posted over there suddenly seems to have vanished, and one of the links is no longer a link... So I’ll just post it here, since it’s being so strange.
[Poll #1040914]
Also, behind the cut is the same information as I had with the GJ poll—meaning icons of each on the poll, for those that don’t know who someone on the list is.
I managed to find quite a few more blonde images of Rachel Hurd-Wood, (that relates to a previous GJ post) so she was okay for the poll after all. As before, above is the poll, and some links to icons of each so you can see what they look like. I briefly considered adding Hannah Murray—but you can see from the icons, she just doesn’t fit Illyana, even if she does seem…odd.
Christina Cole.
Elisabeth Harnois.
Rachel Hurd-Wood
Carey Mulligan
ETA: I didn't change the formatting for the Christina Cole link--and it works fine here, but not on GJ. No idea what the problem is...

(Oddly enough, glancing at your own icon, it occurs to me, at least some of the times I've seen her (she's got a face that seems radically different depending on the pose, lighting, etc), Amber Benson could also make a decent choice. Maybe it's just me. But then she may be too 'well known' to fandom to be a good choice anyway)

Of course, with the icon I'm using right now maybe she might have worked.
