      I wish i could find the 1949-1950 series of this right before Ripley passed at 59 years old.

    A great video of Ripleys’ Believe it or Not. Very interesting the part of medicine and the investigations in the lab. That is fascinating to say the least, very much so. An educational and informative video indeed, I enjoyed it. And it was good to see Jack Palance again , he was wonderful in these videos. 🙌👍👍🙌

    A new "Ripley" series wouldn't be seen until 1982 {on ABC}- with Jack Palance as host.

      And don’t forget, the early 2000s version hosted by Dean Cain 😊

    Jack Palance was the greatest host ever. Believe it or not.

    Globe title shot was used by the soap opera "As The World Turns" from 1956-1967.

    The opening influenced that of "Mystery Science Theater 3000".

    When will all those "producers" get the meaning of the words "background music" ? Otherwise great stuff

    Owning stock in a business you work for and using their product or service was unusual enough for Ripley's?

    • @patpeters6331
      @patpeters6331 Před 10 měsíci +1

      At that time yes it was a fairly new concept, stock holder, employee & consumer...all the same person.
      Previously the average workers didn't own stock.

    Why is the past so enthralling and captivating when the present is so damn boring? There is simply too much talking and too much exposition today, the mystery of a thing is blasted away, back then; there was bits of info given allowing your mind room to ponder.

    No wonder this pilot it didn’t sell. It’s so boring.
