A Talk With a TV Legend!
During the 1960s, the Bozo the Clown show was a mainstay of children’s programming. While there were several different men playing Bozo in various TV markets across the United States, only one actor was the national face of the whacky but good-natured clown. He was radio and TV announcer actor Frank Avruch.

The Betty White Show
Traditionally, the 'Queen of Television' title goes to Lucille Ball but since she's gone I believe the mantle has been passed to Betty White; no other TV star has enjoyed so much success over the last 60 years.

It's
About Time
One
of TV's most beloved sitcoms and it only aired for one year. The series itself may not have been successful, but the show's theme
song is one of the most memorable of all time. People who never
saw the show became familiar with it! Like many Sherwood Schwartz
productions, the theme gives you the entire premise of the show
in hummable fashion. But
will we ever see this classic on DVD?

Hanging
Out With Lucy
"I
got a job at a department store and Lucy came by one day to see if
I was really working. She bought $600 worth of linens from me. She
gave me her home phone number and said, "Do you play Backgammon?"
and I said "No," and she said "You'll learn."
She taught me how to play Backgammon and I still play to this day."

“We were very fortunate,” The Masterantonio sisters said. “Because times we spent with our beloved Bobby Darin were always exciting and memorable. This is just one special time. Bobby was appearing at the Flamingo Hotel in Las Vegas at the time and we were there to see him. Bobby asked us if we would like to go see a recording session with him.”

Saturday
Morning TV Shows - 1967
With Batman the hottest show in primetime the networks rolled out an extravaganza of bizarre superheros for their Saturday morning line-up. After The New Beatles and American Bandstand on ABC the network scored a hit with Where the Action Is, a teen music show featuring the hottest acts in the country. With video highlights!
Timmie Rogers
I
was thinking the other day about the great, pionering black comic
Timmie Rogers. He came up through vaudeville, he was one of (if
not the) first black comedians to appear without blackface
makeup in the 1940s. Yes, even the 'negro' comics had to wear blackface back in the day!

Best of Batgirl 1967-68
The most popular character on the show, besides the Dynamic Duo, was Catwoman but she couldn’t be on every week so the producers asked DC comics to come up with a heroic Catwoman so Batgirl debuted in Detective Comics # 359 in 1967. (As opposed to the earlier Batgirl, a minor character from the 1950s.)

1960's Soap Opera Themes
The Edge of Night came on CBS in the afternoons so this is the Soap Opera theme I remember best as a young kid, just getting home from school. It reminds me of laundry being done and dinner on the stove (the kids ate early at our house). There's something eerie about this theme, the show had a dark undertow and a generally seedy nature. And then there was Dark Shadows.

1980's
PUNK ROCK
In the early-eighties, young people in Los Angeles were flocking to
makeshift clubs in droves to see new, up and coming bands. Live new
music, not DJs, was what they craved. These writings provide a sketchy
look at the underground club scene in Los Angeles during the time
that groups like X, Missing Persons, The Go-Go's, The Minutemen and
Wall of Voodoo entered the public consciousness.
