We absolutely love classic television and movies, and want to share with some of you. These old movies, the way they were made, is a lost art and so many people through CZcams are discovering and remembering the golden era of film. To see a bygone era of television that was very live and very much could go awry at any moment is very different from what is on TV today.

VHS Commercials And Trailers
The commercials and movie trailers on VHS movies we watched as kids burned themselves into our minds at times due to the fact that we watched them repeatedly on a loop. People from a certain generation have some fond memories and emotional responses to many of these commercials as it takes us back to a time when life was much more simple and secure.

Calling the old time and temperature phone line back in the day. You may not know what this is, but it is still used by thousands across the US even now. Watch the video to learn about the old time and temp lines or reminisce. Thanks for stopping by!
Gilligan's Island and President Kennedy
zhlédnutí 430Před 2 lety
The first pilot episode was being filmed for the classic television show Gilligan's Island when President John Kennedy was assassinated. The cast and crew experienced this dramatic event cut off from the United States mainland, watching the events unfold on television and listening on radio. Ultimately, several of the cast involved in this pilot would be replaced by the actors we came to know a...
Mel Blanc's Near Fatal Accident
zhlédnutí 1KPřed 2 lety
The voice of Barney Rubble and countless other classic cartoons, Mel Blanc, had a disastrous auto accident in Los Angeles. If you've watched any amount of The Flintstones over the years, then you have likely heard the results of this accident in the changes of the voice of Barney. From the first episode to the last, Barney's voice changed a few times.
1968 CBS Fall Line-Up, Hawaii Five-0, Mayberry RFD
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 5 lety
The CBS 1968 fall line-up.This clip has some failed tv pilots, not that they never aired, just failed and some classic television. Mayberry RFD (the next chapter so to speak of the popular "The Andy Griffith Show") and Hawaii Five-0 of course were very popular shows that people still remember from this season. CBS attempted to make the comic strip Blondie into a show, but from the looks of it n...
Super Circus 1954 Restored Classic Television Show
zhlédnutí 3KPřed 5 lety
Super Circus aired on Sundays from 1949 to 1956 on ABC. The show is set up like a circus having circus clowns and different acts in "rings" and the host is called a "ringmaster". This episode has one of those exciting, live, early TV moments! One of the Performers here has a small accident that could have been much worse, but temporarily stops the show, watch to find out what it is! Kellogg's i...
The Ed Wynn Show Jan 14th 1950 Restored Television Show
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 5 lety
The Ed Wynn show aired from September 22, 1949 to July 4, 1950 on CBS. It was broadcast live in Hollywood and recorded via kinescope, sent east and broadcast a week later. The show gave a lot of stars their first live TV appearance and won an Emmy award for best live show in 1950. As far as classic television shows go, I like this one. Ed Wynn can't be beat! Listen to see of you can hear when h...
What accident
Mary Hartline? More like Mary HOTLINE ❤
Do you have a recording of the actual time and temp voice? I moved overseas and I really miss it, as funny as that sounds lol.
An hour ago I saw a photo of Mel lying in bed while voicing the Flintstones. I had never heard the story at all. Jumped on yt and found your perfect spot on the subject! Good job! Do you happen to know what kind of car he was driving? Cheers
It wasn't only the Williams brothers and their American Sign & Indicator firm. You also had Edward J. Schulenberg and his business, Time-O-Matic; the way that company's time and temp displays were laid out differed significantly. Barnett National Bank's was Time-O-Matic's "Time-O-Temp" system, with 4 x 7 'open throat' numerals.
The show originated 1949-1956 at WBKB-TV that today is WLS-TV7, Chicago. The program aired Sunday afternoons at 5pm eastern on ABC network. Ringmaster Claude Kirchner hosted a number of children's programs. He stood 6 ft. 6in.
Had no idea Claude was that tall! Thanks for the info!
Wow I wonder if anyone is still living After almost seventy years?
I actually run a time and temp line out of my house that serves my local county. I don't see anywhere near the 10,000 calls you mentioned, but it does get a few hundred calls a month.
Hey, a few hundred in 2022 is doing pretty good! It's cool that you do this.
Glimpse of Wynn's vaudeville days.
Interesting the Camel"s commercial referenced a study of throat irritation to "prove" Camel cigarettes were mild to smoke. This is of course before Surgeon General's warning that cigarettes cause cancer.
Don't worry about Vivian! Fix that $%^& rigging!
Ed Wynn was hilarious, I love his humor. Sadly he passed away the day I was born (June 19, 1966). Thank you for putting this video on CZcams.
Thank you for showing this, I liked him in mary Poppins too. I want a tea party up by the ceiling!!
Thank you so much for posting this!!!
“9 out of 10 doctors smoke camels “
IMDB lists this as S01E16 .. airdate January 21st, 1950. Discrepancy possibly due to the fact that it aired on different dates on the East and West coast .. Kinescopes airing on the East coast at a latter date. Nice work on the restoration. Much better than my other copy!
Lancers similar to Bonanza or Big valley in some ways and others not
Love it nothing like the original Hawaii 5 0
You said it.
I was a little girl and I remember watching his show with my brother.
That picture jumping really brings back old school memories when we had those kind of tv's.

The stars who did radio certainly did have live audience experience, since most of the scripted radio shows had live studio audiences.
Vivian's outfit is a little risque for 1954 and that routine.
This is awesome! I'm so used to trying to watch tired, worn out old kinescopes. Amazing to almost see what it was like when it was televised. The audio is so clean too. One of the few hit early TV shows that were live in LA and kinescoped to New York. It was almost always the other way around. This is how "I Love Lucy" would've looked if Desi didn't come up with the motion-picture 3-camera set-up that would become standard. I wish these restored shows were on DVD. I would love to watch them on my '49 Admiral console TV.
James Stacy before the accident. Kind of odd that Andrew Duggan asks for his arms and legs.
18:30 - Herb Alpert?
Yes! on April 22nd of that year he had a special on CBS promoting his latest album and if you look very closely at 18:33, it's literally just a couple frames, there is a very short clip of that special as well. Good find! Thanks for watching
OMG, the trapeze broke with Vivian on it (at 3:30 )! And the band played on. Wow, live TV...
Yep, I like this one just because of that scene. Thanks for watching!
It's a shame you had to upload it with your water mark. i'd like to watch it on one of my vintage TV sets, but because it was uploaded as 16:9 content rather than 4:3 it doesn't fill the screen.
The Dodge Lancer was better.
So was Lancer hair tonic, as advertised on the "What's My Perversion?" segment of Woody Allen's "EYAWTKAS...BWATA".
I want what's in my mind not what's in yours -ed wynn-
Had a crush on Patricia Hardy ever since she appeared on Occasional Wife. Major Babe.

@January thank you. I stand corrected.
13:42 there’s Arnold from Happy Days.
The way this "fall preview" was assembled, it could be presented as a complete special- or the previews of each new show could be aired individually, in various time periods around the local station's schedule wherever a few minutes was "open" {during a movie, or after a newscast}. The "window" these previews- or the full half-hour - could be shown was between August and September 22nd, 1968.
Lancer had promise, but even Andrew Duggan couldn't keep series longer than two seasons.
The series had decent ratings in the first season, but its competition- "THE MOD SQUAD", on ABC- attracted more viewers, and season two was "disappointing" to the network......and that's why they cancelled it in 1970.
Who is the lady singing? What is that song called?
Catseman Thats Babalú, a Cuban song by Margarita Lecuona. The singer is actress Olga San Juan.
1,, It showed Lucy but now Lucy 2. It went until Thursday but no Friday. 3. I did not realize Mayberry RFD ran three years. Worse show I ever saw. 4. Hawaii 5-0 became a legend. These are the only two shows you can call winners. All the rest were losers!
That's because there were no new programs scheduled on Fridays that fall. CBS continued its successful lineup of "THE WILD WILD WEST", "GOMER PYLE, U.S.M.C." and "THE CBS FRIDAY NIGHT MOVIES".
They also had nothing ready from THE DORIS DAY SHOW to air...and the opening still shows Bea Benaderet, although she had already left PETTICOAT JUNCTION (and would die that October...her husband following within days)
James MacArthur's scenes came from the episode "Samurai", as a different actor played Danny Williams in the pilot movie.
Originally shown LIVE on the West Coast on January 14, 1950. Yes, this kinescope was telecast on the East Coast (including New York) on January 21, 1950. There were no live "coast-to-coast" television transmissions at the time, because coaxial cables weren't in place yet [and wouldn't be, until September 1951].
!! :D <3 THANX!!
And thank you! Glad to see someone enjoys it!
Thank you for putting this up. I am a huge fan of Ed Wynn, yet I didn't know he had his own show until I came across this. Please continue to upload and restore as many as you can. :)
Thank you Jim! I also am a huge fan and did not know about his show until recently. If you didn't know, I also have another of his episodes here on CZcams which looks way better than this one as I learn to improve the looks of these as I go. The greatest part is the other episode features The Three Stooges!
