Date With The Angels

For those of us not old enough to remember, "Date With The Angels" was on the ABC from May 10, 1957 to January 29, 1958. A total of 33 half hour episodes were produced in that time period.

Now she is  a real "Angel" in Heaven.... as she has passed away just 18 days from her 100th birthday.

Now, she is with the love of her life, Allen Ludden.

They were married in 1962 , he died in 1981.

Betty Quote “I had no idea that I would still be around at this point for one thing, but that I’d still be privileged enough to still be in this business.”

Thanks for stopping by.....Yesterday Television

Do You Remember?

 Super Circus aired live on Sunday afternoons from 5 to 6pm Eastern Time from 1949-1956 on ABC. 

It was the closest you could get to being under the big top and if you are old enough to have seen a few of the live performances, you are indeed blessed. "Old and Young" are just words.

Thanks for following, "Yesterday Television."

Do You Remember?

                           The Roy Rogers Show

Starring Dale Evans, Roy Rogers, Trigger & Pat Brady. From 1951 - 1957 the Double R Ranch featured, "The King of the Cowboys" Roy, his "Smartest Horse in the Movies" Trigger, "Queen of the West" Dale, her horse Buttermilk, their dog Bullet, and even Pat's 1946 Willy's CJ-2A Jeep named Nellybelle.

I remember! I watched it as millions of us boomer boys and girls did, growing up in an age when cowboy shows were to cool for words alone.

This post will start with Season One, Episode One entitled, "Jailbreak."

If you keep watching you can binge over 40 episodes in a row!

I will post more episodes in the near future, and update on a regular basis if possible. Enjoy the Shows! "Happy Trails To You, Until We Meet Again!"

In  early 1973 my father Roy took me and my little brother Darl out west on a motorhome vacation. While out there we  went to the, "The Roy Rogers Museum"   

We saw both "Trigger' and "Bullet" as Roy had them both preserved forever.

"Gone With The West " Has Fallen Into The Public Domain

Hope you enjoy todays, "Million Dollar Movie." I come across it while searching the,.... 

"Internet Archive." 

 IMDb said: After being framed, a cowboy is sent to jail. After his time is served, he leaves with vengeance in his heart. 

Soon he meets a young Native American woman and together they go to settle their score with a small town and its corrupt leader. 

 According to Wikipedia: "Gone with the West" is a 1975 American Western film starring James Caan and Stefanie Powers,  and was directed by Bernard Girard. 

The film is also known as "Little Moon and Jud McGraw" in Australia. It was filmed in 1969 under the title "Man Without Mercy" but did not find a cinema release.

Breakfast Pals

  

I didn't know that Snap, Crackle and Pop had adversaries named Soggy, Mushy and Toughy! 

Did You? 

Wow! 

To be a child sitting in a theater in 1939 and watching a commercial sponsored by the Kellogg Company. 

It probably ran back to back with a Popeye cartoon, before the news reel, previews, and the main attraction. This is a piece of history from the golden age of advertising via the big screen. 

I hope you enjoy it as much as I have! 

Thanks for following our humble blog.

Remember Those Old Shows

 Back in the day we only had a few channels to choose from, but it seemed there was always something good on to watch. Now, I find myself with hundreds and hundreds of channels and  having a very difficult time finding anything to watch.

Thanks for being a viewer!
