Edited on Sun Dec-05-04 10:18 PM by yellowdogintexas
when every show on TV was a Warner/7Arts program:
"he roamed through the West Johnny Yuma was a Rebel, he wandered alone"
Nick Adams played JOhnny Yuma Other Warner7/arts westerns:
The Rifleman The Lawman Wyatt Earp Bat Masterson Paladin The Rebel Wanted, Dead or Alive and others that I can't remember the names of.

8. I loved all those shows... |

"Work?!" (Maynard G Krebbs)
I would love to see old Topper and Amos/Andy shows
Bob Cummings had another show called "My Living Doll", with Julie Newmar as the doll.
Remember the old Robin HOod and Sir Lancelot series from ENgland, and does anybody else remember the Buster Crabbe series where he is in the French Foreign Legion ?
OH and who could forget "Ramar of the Jungle" and "Sargent Preston of the Mounties"
Flash Gordon oh, I am on a roll here... Sky King Bringing Up Buddy

25. Do any of these show on cable anymore? |
|
I have realized that they show few of the classic black and white movies on cable. It used to be you could always catch a good Tarzan movie on Saturday afternoon at the very least. I want to see Betty Davis, Gary Cooper, Cary Grant, etc, in some classics.

27. When I was about four or five, I named my teddy bear "Corky" |
|
and my stuffed dog "White Shadow", after a TV show, but I don't remember what it was. Ring any bells? This would be mid/late 50s.

I know them all backward and forward. In NY we have 48 hr marathons on July 4 and New Year's and more than once I've made it through an entire marathon. Once I made it to hour 23 and my TV caught fire.
