I knew it! They have changed the original footage!
I don’t think there have been any major adjustments—like I said, I haven’t watched the show since its original run—but they’ve been working on Richard’s image. They didn’t change the show’s intro, but when Richard first introduced himself in the first episode, they cut out his “Hello, ladies!” Tonight, he became illuminated and felt like he had learned something from giving massages. Beyond those little tweaks, though… it’s pretty much been just Flashback Central.
And I know, I know—I should use the flats of my palms to spread out pressure instead of putting all my weight onto my knuckles and driving grooves along both sides of a woman’s spinal column. We live and learn. Thankfully, Caitilin lived and I learned.
