    Thanks for sharing these new shows of Fall, 1960. I remember Pete and Gladys from that period since I first saw Harry Morgan do that program (he would do other shows, of course). The Flintstones and Bugs Bunny Shows debuted in prime time. The theme song for the bowling program, Make That Spare, would also be used a couple of years later when ABC premiered the Pro Bowlers Tour with Chris Schenkel. Memories from the start of TV's second full decade.

    I'd almost forgotten what a task it was back then just to operate a television set. You had to turn in on, then wait 30 or 40 seconds for anything at all to appear on the screen. After selecting the channel, you then had to use the fine tuning dial to tune closer to the correct frequency, then manipulate contrast and brightness knobs. Then you had to worry about the vertical and horizontal control knobs till ya got the picture to stay in one place. Then you had to manipulate dials on the antenna rotor box in the direction of the station you wanted to receive, and then, as often as not begin the whole process all over again cause one adjustment screwed up all the others. And that was black and white. Once color came along, there were a half dozen more knobs to fiddle with.

    That Candid Camera intro with the familiar theme song and co-host Durward Kirby actually premiered in the fall of '61. The fall of '60 had co-host Arthur Godfrey and no familiar music, I remember watching it in syndication years later. A clip of the 1960 show can be found on YT courtesy of Gilmore Box.

    • @fromthesidelines
      @fromthesidelines 5 років тому +1

      Yep- and Godfrey clashed with Allen Funt, who kept whining he didn't have much to do on camera because Godfrey was "hogging" it most of the time as the program's host. By the end of the season, Godfrey left, and Durward Kirby- who did NOT have any problems working with Funt- was chosen as the nominal "host". They got along famously for the next five seasons...................

Then the Star Spangled Banner, The Morning Sermonette and the crop reports and weather for the farmers in New Jersey, Long Island and Connecticut.It would go off the air at 10PM after playing the National Anthem Where was this? New York City. These were the flagship stations, ABC(7) NBC(4) CBS(2) The Dumont Network(5, WNEW) WPIX(11)The Public Channel (13) and WOR(9) WOR came on at noon and mostly showed old movies. At night it showed the baseball games(Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers and signed off. No Basketball or Football on any channel. At 7PM it had The Million Dollar Movie. It showed the same movie all week. Friday nights a movie in Italian(Ronzoni Sono Buoni) Dumont manufactured televisions and it created its own content to induce people to buy a television.

      DYK...in some localities (and a couple of entire states), the "Gardol" flouridated version of Colgate Dental Creme (and other brands) couldn't be sold until about 1970. Gardol was simply Colgate-Palmolive-Peet's trademark for stannous flouride, dental grade. Unilever (Lever Brothers), C-P-P's main competitor, had another trade name for flouride...which escapes me (LOL)! C-P dropped the reference to Peet Brothers Soap in 1953, long after their cleanser products were re-branded as "Ajax."

      My favorite episode is the one played out at the " Execution Rocks Lighthouse " on Long Island Sound. I grew up in New Rochelle. Ny and that lighthouse is not far from our shoreline. I had a friend who had a small Sunfish sailboat and she sailed to the Lighthouse and went up and knocked on the door . The keeper was very nice and asked her in for a visit.
      No keepers now, it is an automated facility now I believe.

      Originally, Arthur Godfrey was the host during the 1960-'61 season. But his ego clashed with Allen Funt's, who whined off-camera he wasn't given enough to do ON camera. Finally, at the end of the season, Godfrey left- and Durward Kirby took his place in the fall of 1961. THIS time, he and Allen acted more like CO-hosts.....and it was a happy on-screen partnership for five seasons.

      First of all, Durwood had a pleasant and sincere personality. He was a great announcer and pitchman. And he established himself as a pretty good comedic actor on Garry's daytime and evening shows. And most important, he and Allen didn't clash with each other.

    It's interesting to see how many shows of the period featured boys & men but not a single woman had her own show except for Barbara Stanwyk, who was already an established film star who worked during the 1940s when women were so visible in regular daily life because of their new roles as workers outside of the home while 16 million American men went to fight in World War Two. When the men came home in 1945, women were fired from their good-paying jobs; writers for movies & t.v. (the latter a brand new form of home entertainment beginning around 1949). In the 1950s & 1960s, producers of t.v. & movies gave the parts to men that emphasized being outside of the home as more valued, being the decision-makers, holding importance in their positions of male authority & decision making. By the 1960s, women were viewed (through male writers' eyes) as sexual objects for male desire, or as the one who kept the entire household running as a wife & was looked to for raising the children (her "proper" work--without pay, authority or value). Just replace or reverse the roles between men & women in these t.v. shows to see how women were cast into lesser, diminished importance or as adjunct to what was really important. The late 1960s would bring the American women's movement & efforts to change who defined who women were & what she wanted.
