Oh I am so glad some of these shows are posted in full here and on Dailymotion 😃 and I should say also never forget old radio shows, still playing on the radio today....in NY on Sunday nights on WBAI 99.5, they are online too. Thanks dad for that transistor radio with the one white earplug that look like an egg lol...ohhhh I feel old again. Kimba Rules🦁!

Still watch "One Step Beyond," on DVD. Had a Talking "Julia" Barbie; she's long gone, but her sexy gold & silver jumpsuit survives.

Actually I was kind of obsessed with The Immortal when I was 15 or so. I recorded several episodes on audio tape. Finally saw it again on the Sci Fi Channel in the '90s. It's now out on DVD. Of course, it's not as good as I remembered. But Fletcher was indeed ruthless, if somewhat incompetent. On more than one occasion he caught Ben Richards but then just tossed him in the back seat without handcuffing him. I guess if he did, Ben wouldn't have been able to get away and the show would end. As it is it only lasted 15 episodes. Not exactly long-living.

Fred, you're killin' me! 25 minutes of this great stuff is a nostalgia overload! I want to comment on so many things, I could go on for paragraphs. For this comment, I'll focus on "The Immortal". I was fascinated by that show when I was a kid because I was afraid of dying in my sleep thanks to that infernal prayer: "Now I lay me down to sleep...". When I saw The Immortal, I thought that if I had type O negative blood, I would live forever. It turns out I do have type O neg. but I know now I'm not living forever but at the time, the thought did help me get over that fear I had.

The Immortal was my favorite show at the time, Herb. No, I didn't fear I'd die in my sleep, but I was crushed when it was canceled. They showed reruns the next summer and I recorded every episode on audio cassette. I really enjoyed the music by Dominic (The Outer Limits) Frontiere. The show is now out on DVD but in e final analysis it was just a routine chase show with a hint of sci fi. However, Chris George was very good in the lead role and Fletcher was an interesting antagonist.

Beany & Cecil was a puppet show before it was a cartoon. On nearly every episode there was something that triggered Cecil to go crazy and lick somebody.

That annoyingly catchy theme song stuck in my head forever yet only saw it once. Late Sunday afternoon's 'Wild Kingdom' makes me recall having take a bath for school the next day after the show.

I was just joking about that very type of thing last weekend, making a parallel to The Incredible Dr. Pol! Not too many years ago I had a great set of Wild Kingdom DVDs, and I watched through them several times (running them on a little DVD player while I worked late evenings and on weekends) before deciding to donate them to my nephew and niece for the educatainment value. I suspect their parents just unloaded it at a garage sale -- probably never even watched them -- because that's how they roll. By the way, did you ever hear about how that Stan Brock guy turned out? He was an amazing humanitarian and a true hero! He left this world for the next one only about six months ago.

I loved watching King Kong 1933 in the 50s. I had a repeating nightmare trying to run through the jungle on Skull Island. My legs would hardly move and I couldn't make any progress. Kept looking over my shoulder for Kong to grab me!

And oh my what a guest line up for "This Is Tom Jones"!! I'd give a lot to step into a time machine and revisit those times... Thanks so much for these, Fred!

There are shows that are on for decades, then others only a season or two. It is interesting the ones that make such a lasting impression on us. I remember the opening to Guns of Will Sonnet but I was so very young I could not tell you a single story. Thanks for the memories. I'd LOVE to see some of those "21st Centry" shows and see what they got right and wrong.

I think "Guns of Will Sonnett" is the only show in this compilation that is completely unrecognizable to me. Don't know how I missed it, but I think I'll try to find some episodes to check out. After all ... Walter Brennan! And doing white-man's rap as the intro theme! Puts him right up there with Jimmy Dean, Tennessee Ernie Ford, and Lorne Greene. Priceless!

@@luisreyes1963 But the characters were mostly middle class: lawyers, bankers, and the shananigans they got into. I remember it from the very early 1960s before I knew it was 'racist" against blacks. They did show a couple of lower-class blacks performing their jobs, but just as white people, many who also had lower-class jobs portrayed on tv. The black elitists in the NAACP had no stomach for having their people portrayed the way it was, with Amos 'n' Andy scheming for money, just as whites do and did. PC started running amok from that time forward to today's most extremist ways not imaginable in 1962/63.

Also, when Nichols was going to quit the show due to the hate mail she was getting (oh how times haven't changed), MLK himself urged her to stay the course, AND I think she even got moral support from William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy.

Chilling fact about "Citizen Kane": The obvious target/subject of the piece, publisher William R. Hearst, did everything he could -- in court and otherwise -- to stop production of the film. His efforts failed, and young Orson Welles attended the opening night at a big theater in Hollywood. Leaving the movie palace, he was buttonholed by a sympathetic LA cop who told him, "Mr. Welles, be careful, they're out to ruin you. Back in your hotel room there's an underage girl on the bed and a private detective on the fire escape with a camera. You get me?" Welles did. He threw his hotel key down a sewer grating and immediately took a taxi for the airport, headed for NY until things cooled down.
