Dame Darcy on BLIND DATE

Friday, February 12, 2010


Dame Darcy is the sometimes-brilliant cartoonist behind the long-running indie comic Meatcake. She is also a rather deliberately peculiar person, and she's made something of a second career for herself as a reality dating show kook, appearing on such highbrow fare as Blind Date, Third Wheel and Flavor Of Love 3: You Cast It!

The clip above feature's Darcy's spot on Blind Date, a show that ran in syndication for much of the last decade. (I actually used to watch this show, and seeing it now makes me weep for all those half hours I wasted with Roger Lodge.) It's an absolutely cringe-worthy segment that sees Darcy bringing a talking dolly along on her date and generally trying to be as weird as possible.

"Science fiction plucks from within us our deepest fears and hopes, then shows them to us in rough disguise: the monster and the rocket." - W.H. Auden

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?

Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
