    Publisher's Summary:
    Lifeless and wrapped in plastic. This is how Sheryl Lee was first introduced as "Laura Palmer" in the cult television classic, Twin Peaks. Now, Sheryl returns to voice Laura's darkest secrets in the audiobook event that fans of the show have long awaited. Commissioned by series creators Mark Frost and David Lynch and written by Lynch's daughter, Jennifer - who was told she was one of "three air breathing mammals to know the identity of Laura's killer" - The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer became an integral part of the Twin Peaks canon.
    The diary chronicles Laura's life from age 12 to her death at 17 and provides a harrowing backstory to the event that set the entire series in motion. In intimate diary entries, Laura goes from a happy and naïve tween to a tormented soul posing behind the phony smile of homecoming queen. Plagued by visions of a creepy man with long hair - a demonic presence she comes to know as "BOB" - Laura falls into a world of drug addiction, sexual promiscuity, and prostitution to escape. But as she's swallowed deeper and deeper into the abyss, Laura is forced to question the reality of who and what BOB really is.
    With hidden Easter eggs, glimpses at the origins of principal characters, and clues to the identity of her eventual killer, The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer is required listening for diehard fans of the original show, and essential background for the 2017 revival.

    I love Twin Peaks!!!
    As a fan of Twin Peaks and being so excited about the news season it was a special treat to listen to "The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer" read by the voice of Laura Palmer Sheryl Lee. I really loved it and if you are a fan of the show, you will love it too.
    Wrapped in plastic
    As a newcomer to 'Twin Peaks' I hadn't read this novel when it came out so the audio recording was my introduction to Laura's diary. It's a very raw, dark story and a far cry from the quirkiness of the show (take this as a warning if necessary). Jennifer Lynch's writing is very strong and elevates what could have been a gimmick in other hands.
    As to the narration, Sheryl Lee gives a very powerful performance as Laura, delivering a very emotional, harrowing and devastating experience for the listener. Her performance as BOB in particular is downright sinister. It's hard to listen to at times, which is a compliment to be talent.
    One minor issue: Flipping to my Kindle version I noticed that at various points throughout the story the reader is informed that pages have been ripped from the diary. In the recording there are no indications that the diary has been tampered with. I imagine most people will miss out on this element just listening to the audio.
    Small caveats aside, this is essential listening for 'Twin Peaks' completists.
    A view into the transformation of Laura Palmer
    The book is a very interesting insight into the world of Twin Peaks and the mind of Laura Palmer. The tone of the book (Laura's diary entries) progressively becomes darker and darker, all well captured by S.Lee's performance.

    Publisher's Summary:
    This collection of irreverent and surprising essays about the popular television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer includes pieces by leading science fiction and fantasy authors. Contributors include best-selling legend David Brin, critically acclaimed novelist Scott Westerfeld, cult-favorite vampire author Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, and award-winner Sarah Zettel. The show and its cast are the topics of such critical pieces as Lawrence Watt-Evans's "Matchmaking in Hellmouth" and Sherrilyn Kenyon's "The Search for Spike's Balls". An informed introduction for those not well acquainted with the show and a source of further research for Buffy buffs, this book raises interesting questions concerning a much-loved program and future cult classic.
    Critic Reviews:
    "A fun, sassy, intelligent and sarcastic book by and for those who understand the fascination with The Slayer, her friends and her foes. I loved it!" (Nora Roberts)
    "This collection of smart, sassy, mind-bending essays is a fitting tribute to Joss Whedon's beloved series. Read them and weep - for the loss of a great show that clearly encouraged its fans to think great thoughts." (Michael Logan, TV Guide)
    "Rejoice, O Buffyphiles! Its a delight to learn that the most famous writers in the business are also the biggest fans of our favorite show, and they live up to their promise! This captivating collection will make you cheer, laugh, growl (with glee!), and think - the same as the series! From sublimely thought-provoking to slapstick hilarious, this book is just as relentlessly entertaining, capturing the essence of what we love about the Buffy the Vampire Slayer!" (PN Elrod, author of The Vampire Files)
    Members Reviews:
    Many other better books about Buffy, pass on this one.
    Worst book about Buffy I have read, and I have read more than a few. None of the essays raise above the worst fanfic you can find for free on the web or could have heard in any school cafeteria when the series was running. Especially annoying is the faux university essay about Xander, I am sure I have read several fanfic stories on the same subject that are better. Also annoying is the repetition of 'insights' into the slayer's love life over several of the essays.
    Also appears that some of the essays were written by people who only know about the series from listening to people talk about it, instead of watching it. One author writes about a guy she has a one night stand with and then spent the next several weeks pining away for as if they had a long-term mutual relationship. He wasn't, "high maintenance" he wasn't maintenance at all because he was never in a relationship with her. To him she was just another Freshman one night stand(this was emphasized several times over several episodes). Nothing more.
    Into every generation, a Slayer is born and people will write stuff about her
    Just goes to show, fantasy & sci-fi writers are human, too, and they fall prey to frenzied fandom as much as you and I. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER has been gone for a few years now, and I still miss it, and I still look around for some sort of substitute to satisfy Buffy withdrawal.

    Publisher's Summary:
    Firefly's early demise left fans with a deep sense of loss and plenty of unanswered questions. From what was wrong with the pilot to what was right with the Reavers, from the use of Chinese to how correspondence between Joss and network executives might have gone, from a philosopher's perspective on "Objects in Space" to a sex therapist's analysis of Inara, Finding Serenity is filled with writing as exciting, funny, and enthralling as the show itself.
    Members Reviews:
    varying quality but mostly good "companion" to the Firefly 'verse
    this is an anthology of essays by sf writers, Jewel Staite (the actress who played Kaylee) and academics. Most of it is very enjoyable and gives you a much broader picture of the series and the exacting care taken to put that series onscreen.
    A couple of the essays were a little too dry-academese for my taste, and since the essays were written before the Serenity film was released, some of the speculation on the 'verse's backstory is just plain wrong. A couple times in Staite's piece you can almost hear her trying not to give any spoilers for the movie.
    But still well worth reading if you're one of those fans who love the show and were bummed when it was cancelled so early.
    Some good, some better, some... not so good.
    The cancellation ofFireflyleft many questions unanswered, and many theories on character back-story and motivation are expounded upon in this collection. The essays, edited by series writer and long-time Joss Whedon co-conspirator Jane Espenson, were all written in the period of time between the end of the series and the release ofSerenity, which gives the book a quaintly episodic feel in an I-know-something-you-don't-know sort of way.
    The essays themselves are something of a mixed bag - if you're a fan of the show, at least one of them is pretty much guaranteed to piss you off. But fans will appreciate contributions from other long-time Whedon co-conspirator Marti Noxon, and a sweetly nostalgic accounting of favorite moments from actress Jewel Staite.
    Uneven, but valuable collection
    I have to agree with the reviewer who commented that this collection was a mish-mash. It falls uncomfortably between the scholarly and the fan-oriented. But I found much worthwhile and enjoyable writing alongside less-useful commentary. If we set aside papers where the theory overwhelms the material such as in "Whores and Goddesses" and ones that are rather pointless such as "Firefly vs. The Tick" and not hugely funny satires such as "Mirror/Mirror" and "The Rise and Fall (and Rise) of Firefly" we have a slim volume including reference materials on the Mandarin used in the series, well-argued commentary on the mixing of genres ("Just Shove Him in the Engine, or The Role of Chivalry in Firefly") and some very insightful commentary on the characters ("More Than a Marriage of Convenience"), on the culture ("Asian Objects in Space") and the setting ("Star Truck").
    So, an indispensable, though not entirely satisfactory, collection.
    Great for fans of Firefly.
    Great set of essays for Firefly fans.

    Publisher's Summary:
    Don't Do What I Did explains, in frank English, how to make a living in film and video production. From networking to booking gigs to taking care of yourself, this book comprehensively and methodically lays out what to expect in this industry.
    Members Reviews:
    Pretty good for your first book!
    The book was written fairly well but had several repeating instances. Literally word for word repeating as if the reader had to restart the recording?
    This guide definitely focuses on the negative aspects of the business instead of fluffing up the industry.
    Worth the price in every way!
    A true to life portryal of one's lessons learned
    Where does Don't Do What I Did rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?
    As far as other audio books go, this was one that hit close to home very hard. I found myself nodding my head a lot of times due to agreeing with the truth the author had to say.
    What about Alex Wagners performance did you like?
    I liked the ease and natural flow in Alex's voice. It was a very peaceful read and easy to follow. Great speaking voice, very soothing and relaxing.
    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
    This is definitely a book i wanted to listen to in one sitting. It was short and to the point, no fluff at all and very informative and entertaining. It's packed with such vital information on making it in the freelancing film world.
    Any additional comments?
    Being a person who has freelanced in the film and television industry for the last 5 years, I found myself learning more about the business, and was also quite shocked at the similarities in the stories and experiences mentioned in the book.
    could have been told in stories
    Could have been more entertaining or comical. but it gets the points across. Certainly worth the $7 i paid for it. It has me more focused than ever on creating my own projects, building my brand, diversifying my income etc. Definitely a cheap must read for someone who doesn't have insights or connections to industry professionals.
    If you're ABSOLUTELY NEW to videography then ok
    Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
    I've been in videography as a business for over a year now and this book didn't bring me any new ideas. If you're absolutely new/green/starting out then yes this'll be useful to you. However if you're already in the field I'd not recommend this.
    Has Don't Do What I Did put you off other books in this genre?
    No
    How could the performance have been better?
    This guy's tone leaves much to be imagined. Its mono, lacks enthusiasm and its hard to work out when one chapter ends and another starts. Also he's not edited out mistakes - unless that was just my download that corrupted.... unless that was just my download that corrupted. Like that a few times.
    Could you see Don't Do What I Did being made into a movie or a TV series? Who would the stars be?
    Nope and Nopey McNopeface
    Any additional comments?
    It's great that he's gone to write a book and get his message out there. However a different voice artist would have gone a long way to give this some life.

    It was only a matter of time before Diana Gabaldon's best-selling Outlander saga made the leap from book to hit TV series, and the millions of readers captivated by the epic romance of Claire Beauchamp Randall and Jamie Fraser have eagerly followed. Now the must-watch drama has inspired this must-have guide, which reveals that it takes a village (or perhaps a Scottish isle) to bring the breathtaking world of Outlander to life in front of our eyes. Spanning the first two seasons of the Starz network sensation, The Making of Outlander leads listeners behind the scenes and straight into the action as cast members, writers, producers, musicians, costume designers, set decorators, technicians, and more share the many adventures and challenges they face to make this sweeping saga come alive on the screen.

    Better To Get The Book
    I adore, nay, worship Outlander. But listening to this book instead of reading it was a big mistake. Nothing personal to the narrator, but she needs to stick to fiction narration. Her lilting tone and pauses before "he/she said" made listening almost unbearable. Narrating nonfiction evidently does not require lots of emotional and dramatic content.
    And besides, I didn't realize there were pictures that I was missing.
    On a better note, the behind-the-scenes information was terrific, although I would have wished for more insight into the actors and their characters. The production is absolutely amazing in every way and deserves way more attention and awards than it has received.
    A side note: Give me Outlander over "Game Of..." any day!
    Great addition to Outlande! No so good narration!
    If you could sum up The Making of Outlander: The Series in three words, what would they be?
    Interesting, Informative
    What other book might you compare The Making of Outlander: The Series to and why?
    I have neither listened to nor read any other book similar to The Making of Outlander.
    What didnt you like about Tiffany Morgans performance?
    Tiffany has a lovely voice but her pauses before the "he said, she said (specific name)" was frustrating. I thought once she got into the book, she would stop that pause. It was incredibly distracting. To the point that I was so focused on her pauses, I lost track of the story. I would expect this from a new narrator but Audible.com has such gifted narrators. It was a HUGE disappointment.
    If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
    Outlander: Inside Scoop
    So very interesting!
    This book is a must for Outlander fans! It gives wonderful behind-the-scenes glimpses into the filming and the stars!
    Fun look behind the scenes
    I love all things Outlander and hearing how the TV series has unfolded is simply another great piece of the Outlander Universe.
    looking for next one
    loved it.looking forward to episode 3 and 4 to tell all the details.cant wait thanks

    Publisher: University Press Audiobooks
    Genres: Arts & Entertainment, TV & Film
    Publisher's Summary:
    As studio bosses, directors, and actors, Jews have been heavily involved in film history and vitally involved in all aspects of film production. Yet Jewish characters have been represented onscreen in stereotypical and disturbing ways, while Jews have also helped to produce some of the most troubling stereotypes of people of color in Hollywood film history. In Hollywood's Chosen People, leading scholars consider the complex relationship between Jews and the film industry.
    Editors Daniel Bernardi, Murray Pomerance, and Hava Tirosh-Samuelson introduce the volume with an overview of the history of Jews in American popular culture and the American film industry. Multidisciplinary contributors go on to discuss topics such as early Jewish films and directors, institutionalized anti-Semitism, Jewish identity and gossip culture, and issues of Jewish performance on film. Contributors draw on a diverse sampling of films, from representations of the Holocaust on film to screen comedy; filmmakers and writers, including David Mamet, George Cukor, Sidney Lumet, Edward Sloman, and Steven Spielberg; and stars, like Barbra Streisand, Adam Sandler, and Ben Stiller.
    The Jewish experience in American cinema reveals much about the degree to which Jews have been integrated into and contribute to the making of American popular film culture. Scholars of Jewish studies, film studies, American history, and American culture as well as anyone interested in film history will find this volume fascinating listening.
    Critic Reviews:
    "An engaging and gracefully written series of essays by leading film scholars whose intelligent and broadly diverse perspectives provide new insight on questions that are complex, provocative and of compelling interest. It has my highest recommendation." (Robert Rosen, professor and dean emeritus at the UCLA School of Theater, Film, and Television)

    You know, this is, excuse me- a DAMN fine audiobook. I've heard I can't tell you how many audio books in my life and this, this is one of the finest.
    Available Again!!!
    Would you listen to "Diane": The Twin Peaks Tapes of Agent Cooper again? Why?
    Bought this the second I got in to work today. I had this on audio cassette as a kid and loved it, was so excited to see it's back in print on audible. A must for die hard Twin Peaks fans!
    Short, Greta, fun
    I hope they make more of these, maybe go back and do the tapes from season two and maybe season 3 (2017) depending how the new story plot turns out.
    Perfect for the Twin Peaks Addict
    I can't praise Kyle MacLachlan's performance enough. It has all the charm of the original TV series. I only wish it were longer.
    Still love it!
    I actually still have my cassette copy of this from back in the 90's and obviously run into some difficulty listening to it because cassette. So happy to have this on my phone now to listen to whenever I want!!

    Couldn't put it down
    One of those rare volumes that keeps you turning the page. Seth Shapiro took me on a journey that I hadn't realized I'd already been on. From the advent of wireless through Lucy, Johnny and even Monty Python, Shapiro offers a history that (a) I had no idea I was interested in, and (b) was a reflection of my own, personal history. A borderline baby boomer, I thought nothing of television's influence until I remembered my mom telling me that I was named after Rob Petrie; my brother, Ricky Ricardo - and I was lucky enough to stumble upon this brilliant work from an obvious savant (not, to be sure, of the idiot variety!) on all things television. Can't wait 'til volumes 2 & 3. Spend ten bucks and revisit your own life - it's a fun ride.
    Superb journey through the genesis of radio, TV, and how and why they came to be. Terrific!
    Fascinating. This book is filled with many things: nostalgia, wit, information, and a clear look at how television and radio became what they are today. Amazing attention to detail and deep research by the author combine in a very readable, enjoyable format. The author guides us through the personalities, happenings, and circumstances that shaped the mediums and shows real skill in making it all entertaining with a great lead in and connection to the next at the end of every chapter.
    It will make you smile, make you go, "Wow, I didn't realize that" about 100 times, and keep you turning the pages. Well done.
    Indispensable!
    There is no sharper-eyed observer of the past, present, and future of TV than Seth Shapiro. In Volume 1, The Broadcast Age and the Rise of the Network, he guides us through TV's history with the perspective, clarity, and humor that only a true industry insider can offer. If you love TV -- and let's be honest, even if you swear you hate you know you secretly love it -- this is an incredibly insightful and fun read. But it's also an incredibly valuable business book. If you're in the marketing business, it's more important than ever to understand where we've come from if you want to understand where media is all going. Turn off the TV, turn off the wi-fi, find a comfortable chair and settle in with this outstanding book. You're guaranteed to be smarter and savvier about the world's most powerful medium than you were before. The book is indispensable.

    A book any actor should read at least once, not to say once a year !!!
    I wish I had it when I started to work, it definitely would have helped a lot.
    Lori is so right when she says : if "somebody" else did it, then you can !
    She is clear, simple, and goes straight to the point.
    And icing on the cake : she loves actors and you can feel it through every single word.
    If you ever start to feel a little down with your career, get this book, open it to any page, and you'll be back on tracks !
    This book is a jewel, a really valuable jewel.

    In her book, The Organic Actor, Lori Wyman offers readers a chance to understand the film and television audition world from a casting director's perspective. She insightfully explores each of the controversial subjects related to the audition process, such as how you should slate, the usage of props, and what your resume should look like. The lnformation in Ms. Wyman's book opens the door of success for the average actor - now all he has to do is walk through it. This is an important book for all actors who want to book jobs.
    All these reviews you are reading here, were written by Lori Wymanâs Husband, Child Molester, Pervert husband, Marc Macaulay aka MANSAUCE as he calls himself to his victims. This creep, tried attacking my 16 year old daughter . This weirdo, is a homophobic child molester. Donât believe the reviews for this book. This is total crap. Anyone who bought this hunk of crap. Used it for toilet paper later on. Many actors, have come to me telling me, Lori Wyman is a Bully, liar and thief. Her husband, stay away from him, all he wants is sex with underage girls. Go on IMDb and look it up, under Marc Macaulay aka MANSAUCE!!! Sick pervert. Donât buy this book, Marc will know where you live, if you have kids. He also employs hackers to steal your private information. do you really want some weirdo showing up at your kids school, looking for our son or daughter. DON'T DO IT !!!

    Publisher's Summary:
    Do you watch movies with your eyes open? You buy your tickets and concessions, and you walk into the theater. Celluloid images flash at 24 frames per second, and the hypnotic sequence of moving pictures coaxes you to suspend disbelief and be entertained by the implausible. Unfortunately, many often suspend their beliefs as well, succumbing to subtle lessons in how to behave, think, and even perceive reality. Do you find yourself hoping that a sister will succeed in seducing her sibling's husband that a thief will get away with his crime, that a serial killer will escape judgment? Do you, too, laugh at the bumbling priest and seethe at the intolerant and abusive evangelist? Do you embrace worldviews that infect your faith and then wonder, after your head is clear, whether your faith can survive the infection? In this thoroughly revised and updated edition of his popular book, Brian Godawa guides you through the place of redemption in film, the tricks screenwriters use to communicate their messages, and the mental and spiritual discipline required for watching movies. Hollywood Worldviews helps you enter a dialogue with Hollywood that leads to a happier ending, one that keeps you aware of your culture and awake to your faith.

    Very insightful
    Major fan of Brian Godawa's work. In Hollywood he does not disappoint. Very well done
    Not what I expected
    I was expecting a collection of movies with pop psycho analysis. Instead I got a brain-stretching treatment on myth, culture, good and evil, and "the hero", ranging from Batman to Beowulf. And what Stor y Telling does with them. Not a light read, but a profitable one. So 4 stars.
