Pteryx: Is it really one of The Oldest Ones in the Book if the earliest example named is from the 20th Century?
Morgan Wick: By our arbitrary, rooted-in-when-this-was-still-all-about-TV, and overly-inclusive definition, yes, since it's before 1960. See the page itself and The Oldest Ones In The Book Discussion.
Twin Bird: And it's essentially Tír na nÓg in the Himalayas, anyway.
Arbane: I thought it was usually spelled "Shangri-La"?
Evil Midnight Lurker: I have never in my life seen it spelled with an M. What's the deal here?
Ninjacrat: It's a pun. 'Sham'. 'Shangri-la'. Geddit?
See the other titles in Hollywood Atlas.
Document N: Still, if you're keeping score, I was completely confused too.
berr: Redirect added for people who type in the normal spelling without noticing the pun.
priopraxis:is this supposed to be like Shangri-La, only fraudulent ? Because that's what I'm getting from the title.
