Every time I see Ernest Borgnine I think about The Poseidon Adventure. Him calling the preacher "You lyin' BASTARD!" And "You killed her!" About six times in a row.
Fred, thank you again for sharing. So many good memories (including another appearance by Ken Berry's WOW!). I know it takes a lot of time and effort to gather these promos and cut-outs. I really appreciate your taking time to research, curate, and assemble these wonderful collections. Please keep up the great work. Can't say enough good things about you and your sharing with us. Each time I watch your videos I get a big smile on my face.
At 8; 26, they had to stick poor Sonny Bono on a pedestal or a step since Cher was taller than he was.I always look forward to seeing The Lennon Sisters on PBS on The Lawrence Welk Show. My father, who died in 2012, would sit and watch every single football game he could . Twelve and fourteen hours if there were that many hours of them.I remember my parents watching The Jackie Gleason Show because I remember seeing that ocean view and the music. But that's all because I think it was bedtime for me whenever it came on.
10:40- ROCKY: "NOW, what are you doing?" BULLWINKLE: "Writin' a letter to the sponsor. Les'see- 'Dear Sponce'......" ROCKY: "That's not his name, Bullwinkle!" BULLWINKLE: "I KNOW! You'll find out in a moment......"
Didn't he have a chimp sidekick? I remember the producer trying to fit every kind of show into one. Every time I hear the crazy stage names on Beverly Hillbillies I think of Rip Torn.
Interesting that you could actually hear Barbara Bain speak in the Mission Impossible promo. I've been watching Space: 1999 again and I don't know why she keeps trying to whisper her lines in this show.
That's Gary Moore. He was on a televsion program in the 1950s and 1960s called I've Got A Secret, then The Gary Moore Show, Then he was on To Tell The Truth. He was a very popular man on TV.
16:50- The reason was because CBS president James T. Aubrey gave up trying to compete with NBC and ABC on Wednesdays at 7:30pm(et), and placed "CBS REPORTS" there for the next two years as a "loss leader". He waited until the end of December 1964 to move it to Mondays, and filled the hour with "MISTER ED" and "MY LIVING DOLL" for the remainder of the 1964-'65 season. That combo failed to improve CBS' ratings. Aubrey was "cancelled" by the network in February 1965, and "LOST IN SPACE" replaced those series that fall.
16:50- WHY was "CBS REPORTS" moved from Thursday nights at 10pm(et) to Wednesdays at 7:30pm(et) in the fall of 1962? Because CBS president James T. Aubrey realized he couldn't compete with NBC's "THE VIRGINIAN" and ABC's "WAGON TRAIN", and "conceded" the time slot to a program he really didn't want to schedule every week (he believed news and documentaries were a "drain" on CBS' potential profits, but network chairman Bill Paley reminded Aubrey that "news and documentaries made CBS what it is today").
The promo at 13:25 as I recall for the Texas Tenn in the Cotton Bowl game was a complete shellacking . Texas' then new "wishbone" offense just grinded Tennessee to a powder.
Holy Sheep-shit... how many ciggy comercials were there back in the day. I remember some, but here in Canada, it fizzled out befor America banned the advertizing. Thanks fer the memories.
Wow all those cigarette commercials, celebrities and some cartoon characters smoking cigarettes....oh well it was over 50 years ago. I remember almost all of the cartoon characters in this.
Where to start? I am old enough to remember when Steve Martin was funny! Elizabeth Montgomery was timelessly gorgeous. Angie Dickinson was hot, hot, hot - men of my age still get flustered thinking about her in the film Dressed to Kill. The UK BBC newscaster Emily Maitlis is the nearest equivalent today.
All those blatant plugs for cigarettes on those old TV shows. Sorta glad we live in "enlightened" times. At least those PSA's with John Wayne provides balance.
