Joan Collins gets some more newsprint, along with Linda Gray

OK, there's been some action in the past week while the BRBTV News Blog has been in Ontario with the Hair Dare Dukes Days ... Joan Collins, for instance, has been generating some buzz, no doubt helped along by the release of the second season of "Dynasty." Here, for your perusal, are some bits and pieces found around the Web pertaining to the beloved shows of BRBTV ...

The Daily Mail in the U.K. explores Collins' Hollywood career:

The Daily Mail then follows it up with a highlight of a new biography of Collins, focusing on her love life and hubby Peter Holm in particular:

The (York) Press of the U.K. discusses the new role of Linda Gray of "Dallas" fame in Dan Gordon's stage version of the flick "Terms Of Endearment":

The Northern Echo in the U.K. does basically the same thing for Gray:

And if you've been living in a (Bat)cave and haven't heard that Sen. Patrick Leahy, who did a voice in "Batman: The Animated Series," has nailed a role in the upcoming Batman big-screen movie, you can read about it here, among many other places on the Web:

Also in the "B: TAS" realm, Adrienne Barbeau, whom we know as the voice of Catwoman, is in the news for her scheduled appearance at the Erie Horror Film Festival in October:

And, because we just love trying to keep up with the myriad recent film roles of John Schneider of "The Dukes of Hazzard," we'll pass along this addendum to a post a couple weeks ago, regarding John-John's new role in the film "Sydney White"; thanks to Renee of the All-John blog for the link to this trailer that shows Schneider, if only for a moment ...
