Talk:Something's Afoot

I don't think you could even dispute that this appraisal is NOT neutral.

Yeah, this needs a major rewrite. -INVENTM

This writer uses the term "evaluation" quite lightly. Apparently, someone was disapointed that they didn't get a part in the show. -GregaR89

I've just done a little bit of rewriting in order to make the page more neutral. - Jontveit

Are there any other sources besides IMDB for confirming the Showtime airdate? I think it's about two years off. I remember watching the play, and trying to wheedle my grade school drama coach into performing it (obviously not possible, but I didn't understand that at the time). The problem with that is that I graduated from grade school in 1983, and didn't continue doing drama after that point. So it is literally impossible for Showtime to have only begun airing it in 1984. I think IMDB has bad information. Editing to add: I found proof. People Magazine reviewed the original airings on Showtime in their December 6, 1982 issue, and listed the first screening as occurring on December 9, 1982. They have archived their old contents online and a link can be found here: http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20083692,00.html -Lara

"race against the clock"

I'm currently in a production of this show, and I don't believe that anywhere in the play is there mentioned any time concern. I think the part at the top of the article that says that the show is a "race against the clock" should be taken out. Jontveit
