I wonder what all of those Barker fanboys, out of touch with reality and considering the show to be "cancelled" when he left, think of their "hero" now.

The comment about Goodson no longer having control was interesting…


--- Quote --- Blindsided, Hallstrom called Goodson's office and demanded to meet with him. In person, she says, he confessed that Barker and Parkinson were the ones behind the threat. "Listen," Goodson told her. "I know Barker is sleeping with Dian. I know Dian hates you with a passion. And she is filling his head during the pillow talk." There was nothing, he added, that he could do to help her. "I no longer control the show," he said. "Barker seized control of it."

It's been said that Barker and Goodson's relationship was cold at best through their time working together, which would make sense if what I've read about Barker meeting with him in 1972 and afterward wanting to do any other show but TPIR... Plus, didn't Barker force Marc Breslow out and make himself EP when Frank Wayne passed?

ISTR that Barker also forced Paul Alter out as director for testifying unfavorably against Barker, leaving Bart Eskander to direct. Alter took over when Breslow was forced out.
