Pittsburgh's First
Zombie Walk was an event to be remembered. An
estimated 500 zombies took to the streets of Pittsburgh's South Side. The
post-walk show at The Rex Theater included performances by The Forbidden 5,
DEATHMOBILE, a live taping of The It's Alive Halloween Special and a screening
of Night of the Living Dead.

The Professor airs the "Secret Show" which he filmed without the rest of the
cast. This show was a "worst of" episode in which the Prof trotted out otherwise
unusable clips and outtakes. This was a brand new show and movie dropped right
in the middle of summer reruns and was intended to be a breath of fresh air. I
was more like opening a refrigerator that has been unplugged for a very long
time.

The cast has begun shooting segments for the next season. The story will pick up
where last season's "cliffhanger" left off.
06/10/06
The cast finally did an in-store at
Incredibly
Strange Video. It was a very good turn out and certainly not the Spinal Tap
cricketfest that we expected.

Congratulations to Jerry Conti for winning the I love It's Alive contest. Jerry
shambled around in zombie make up under the Kaufmanns clock downtown with a very
professional looking sign. Great job, Jerry!

new time - 10:00 PM.

The November 19th show's musical
guest Noman Nardini was a real treat. One of the show highlights was when Norm's
"sister" showed up and creeped everyone out. If you missed this show, you can
still see Norman Nardini live - please visit his web site for upcoming shows.www.normannardini.com
The October 15th "Robot Monster"show was filmed at the West Virginia

Matt
Menold, who played Fritz on many early episodes, finally made it out of New
Orleans safely today. He had moved to the French Quarter just weeks before
hurricane Katrina hit and failed to evacuate because he "slept in". He could be
seen on CNN playing guitar in a sombrero and was quoted in countless articles.
Here are just a few...
The Professor and Stiffy appeared with Steve Luncinski
on "Humanity Matters" which aired live on PCTV.

The highly anticipated first show featuring 'The Brain That Wouldn't Die' aired
today. Thank you for the nice reviews. These comments were taken from the pile
of e-mails.
"Guys, it's about time someone was able to do
this! I have missed "Chiller Theater" since it went away."
"Great idea….I was a HUGE
Chiller fan…I’ll be watching tonight with my son…..Kind of
how my dad watched with me when I was a youngster! Thanks"
"What a
great idea! Keep up the good work!"
"Awesome!
Congratulations!"
"Very
cool look to the show. Not what I expected at all. This is going to catch on
big time!"

A very nice article ran today with a new publicity photo of the cast. Read it
here in the
Pittsburgh Post Gazette
The Professor and Stiffy did a live interview on WRCT 88.3 FM. The Prof got a
little defensive when one of the interviewers began grilling him on his
credentials. It went something like this:
Interviewer:
"You say you're a Professor. Where did you get your
Ph.D.? Are you really a tenured college professor with a doctoral degree?"
Professor Emcee Square:
"Listen, junior, I've been through the School of
Hard Knocks. I have worthless Microsoft certifications. I've taken numerous
pottery classes! Have you ever taken a pottery class?"
Interviewer:
"No, I haven't..."
Professor Emcee Square:
"Then SHUT UP! Get back to me when you know what
the hell you're talking about. Next question... NEXT QUESTION!"

press release for the premier.

The It's Alive xB Hearse somehow got parked right in the middle of the classic
car show at the Monroeville Summer Fest. The Prof kept the White Zombie remixes
cranked through the 1000 watt system for all the antique car buffs. Those people
got ROCKED!
07/11/05
This happened a while ago but it's news to us... Professor Emcee Square has been
added to E-Gor's Chamber
of Horror Hosts web site. (Look under "Pittsburgh TV Hosts")

We went to the Pittsburgh Regatta where we drove around handing out flyers
and autographed hot dogs. If you see the
It's Alive xB Hearse in your neighborhood, remember...
