    The one advantage of technology today. We get to view these great old programs. No wonder my parents told me "bed time" before turning on the television after dinner. Thanks for posting.

    I've been that gas station attendant that pumped your gas, checked your oil, checked your tires pressure (kicked your tires), and washed your windshield, to name a few. We had pay at the pump years before debit cards.

      Off-screen, he burned himself out with boozing and round-the-clock partying, nothing like the quiet, polite persona affected by the characters he played on t.v..
      Surprisingly, he was Jewish, although his publicity machine obscured his origins. He was buried in the "segregated" Hillside cemetery in L.A..

    , I hate the damn commercials as much as I hated them when these shows were new. I started watching TV in the early fifties and watched commercials expand to take up such a massive chunk of the shows a lot of time you couldn't even make heads or tails of the show by the end of it. It had already started and was well underway by the time this series was produced

      Young was a severe alcoholic who was fired from Blazing Saddles because he couldn't function. His role was given to Gene Wilder. It's believed by the police that Young killed his wife then himself. Addiction is a terrible thing.

      Powell decided to go in a different direction when the 1956 pilot he produced- starring Don Taylor, and based on a radio script- didn't quite work out to his satisfaction. He believed David Janssen was a better choice to play "Diamond". The fact the series lasted three years proved he was right.

      Much better than the noisy, jarring, rambunctious style of modern commercials. At least in my opinion.
