Light Time (1960)
Indeed
Indeed I remember that theme song IT'S LIGHT TIME, and I just LOVE the instrumental arrangement as well!!!! The beginning and the end still stay with me, and I wonder if there are any episodes available anywhere. Many a Sunday morning the television set was on, and I remember this program along with Davey and Goliath, as well as the drama series from the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod This Is The Life. I was looking on YouTube for any Light Time entries, but cannot find one. If you know of any, please direct me!!!!! As for Davey and Goliath, there are some bits on YouTube, and as for This Is The Life, some of the older episodes are likewise available on YouTube.
Symphony of Six Million (1932)
Now that's what I call a wake-up call
If I had the money to do so, as well as the time, I would distribute this to every physician and tell him/her that if he/she will not at least watch this, then give it back to me or give it to somebody who will watch it! It is too bad that this movie is largely unknown, since it seems more relevant to the world of today's medicine. This is an excellent example of the phrase "physician, heal thyself"! And it was too bad that I did not know about this movie until December 8th, when it was broadcast on Turner Classic Movies (www.tcm.com). If there was anything that captured my attention, it was the the beginning musical theme, which varies throughout the movie.
Ted Mack & the Original Amateur Hour (1948)
A 1961-born who remembered Ted Mack
Every Sunday afternoon, I remembered that theme song from the program that was sponsored by Geritol. Back then, little did I know that it had the format of programs during the early days of television, where a single company had all the rights to the advertising. Also, back then I did not know that Ted Mack was an icon of television. What I also loved about this program was at the end, Ted Mack had all of the afternoon's guests parade to the audience. Interestingly enough, he was born in Greeley, Colorado, in which his original name was William Edward Maguinness. Interestingly enough, so many of those who were guests became famous such as Gladys Knight and Raul Julia. This was a program that was to have something for everybody. Indeed, this program that originated from radio's Major Bowes' Amateur Hour so many decades ago evolved into a program that should not be a forgotten part of television history.
Dream Girl of '67 (1966)
An Oklahoma Boy's Dream
I remembered this program on the ABC network, and I was enchanted (for lack of a better word)with the theme song. But I was even more enchanted was those really beautiful and sexy women that appeared right before I had to go to kindergarten! As I was growing up in Oklahoma, so many of us were thinking that those girls from California are really just something. During the 1970's, there was a special (that was syndicated) that was titled Dream Girl, and the host was Ken Howard. I just wondered if there were other specials that was titled Dream Girl. As many of you know, Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity has as their sweetheart the Dream Girl ball.
