Born in '63, so many of these shows are the biggest memories of my childhood. It made me think of what a crazy, mixed up, but still fun country this was to live in for that time.
The Daily Planet staff not being able to tell Clark was Superman is right up there with Commissioner Gordon not being able to tell batgirl was his own daughter.
Ellen Corby may be most famous for her part in The Waltons, but I'll always remember her as Myrt "Hubcaps" Lesh, the seemingly sweet little old lady who sold Barney Fife the lemon automobile in the Andy Griffith Show. Ms Corby had a long history of character roles and it's always fun to be the first to catch a glimpse of her on an old b&w show. I never noticed her in the bank run scene in It's a Wonderful Life even though we watch it almost every Christmas, so thanks for the new sighting!
The F-Troop facts are amazing,it's one of my favorites,it also has some of the funniest moments.born in '87 so many of these timeless television shows have stood the test of time.generations are also watching these for the first time.
The backlot town square from both the "Twilight Zone" and "Back To The Future" also appears as the location where Conrad Birdie causes everyone in sight to faint as he belts out the song "Sincere" in the film "Bye Bye Birdie".
I was born in 1950. I remember most of these shows with Robbie The Robot fondly. Later you show the Banana Splits with Mildred. This was the same Robbie head minus the plastic cover from the first Twilight Zone appearance. It was not a new head.
18:53 "My Favorite Marcia" (probably pronounced "MAR-sha") is of course a pun on "My Favorite Martian", a 1960's scifi comedy starring Bill Bixby and Ray Walston. I loved that as a kid! 😊 27:32 Hey, that's also the actor who played Dr. Bellows in "I Dream of Jeannie"! 😊
During the”F Troop” segment, the shot of Ken Berry on a horse, a shot that has a deep-voiced narrator, has a connection not mentioned here. That guy with the deep voice was the HIGH voiced narrator on the animated “Rocky and his Friends” and “The Bullwinkle Show”. He was actor Robert Conrad, who also played private-eye “Cannon”, and on Radio’s Gunsmoke (before there WAS TV), Conrad played none other than Marshal Dillon!
Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent film footage enabling viewer's to better understand what the orator was describing. A very good concept for ( TV-land ) & other stations to have reruns of all those beloved shows years ago." I dream of Jeannie" my favorite sitcom.😉
That was fantastic! Thank you Tvcrazyman. I remember most of what you showed. I was born half way through the run of The Adventures of Superman. I absolutely loved ST TOS, and The Wild Wild West. While The Munsters was my favorite 'tween that show and The Adams Family, I did watch both. Another show I loved from the 60's was Mannix. So many explosions and fist fights!. And Mike Conners appeared in an episode of Here's Lucy in character. While Gene Roddenberry was The Great Bird of The Galaxy, Lucile Ball was Grand Dame of Star Trek, as she championed the show and it appeared on her TV studio of Desilu. I'm eternally to grateful that fantastic woman. Do you remember Project: UFO? That premiered in1978 for a couple of seasons. Very entertaining. The good news is you've hooked me! The maybe not so good news is your audience is dying off if I'm a representative of such. I'm here for ya man, till the end anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Another fun fact: Barbara Eden was on an episode of Dallas...and after being introduced to JR (Hagman), he asks what her name is...she said 'Nelson'! Lol
Ross Martin was partly cast as Robert Conrad's sidekick in "Wild Wild West" because he was short enough to match the height of the show's star, who was not very tall despite his cocky attitude.
I was watching a Dave Sundstrom livestream, and after it was over, I got this as a suggestion; I'm glad I did! This is my first time seeing one of your productions; you could be working for a network with all your talent and ability! (but please don't; network TV in the 21st century is a bad joke!) I can't imagine enjoying myself more. I'm an old Boomer, so I grew up watching all the shows you mentioned. The '50s & '60s were the golden age of TV!
Billy Mummy also had a part in one of the episodes of Bewitched. There was also some cross-over between Petticoat Junciton and Green Acres. Lurch is my hero!
Talking about some fun facts, did you know that the Anthony Nelson's house in "I Dream of Jeannie" was the same house as Mr. Wilson's house in "Dennis the Menace" and the "Partridge Family?"
I still wonder why Superman can stand there as bullets bounce off his chest, but he ducks when the guy throws the gun at him! “Okay, so I’m bullet proof. But hey, if you throw it at me it’s going to hurt!”
It's interesting to hear the interlinking between these shows and other roles the actors did. However, I am at a major disadvantage as I grew up in Britain where these shows were not so common. I only saw the Munsters and the Addams Family in my teens.
Speaking of fun facts; here's one about about Gomer Pyle, USMC. As most know, Andy Griffith, Frances Bavier, George Lindsey and Ron Howard all appeared individually and collectively on episodes of Gomer Pyle. However, there was one Andy Griffith Show character/actor that appeared in 2 Gomer Pyle episodes without being on set or speaking one word. That would be Don Knotts. In the episode Gomer Goes Home, Gomer is in the courthouse and looks at a framed photo of Barney. In the 1st season episode Gomer and the Dragon Lady, there is a scene that takes place in front of a movie theater; in the background there is a movie poster for a film titled Ship to Shore, but if you look closely you'll see that it is a slightly re-dressed poster for The Incredible Mr. Limpet with Don Knotts very visible on the poster.
Ted Cassidy also did the voice of Injun Joe (and his various incarnations) on the New Adventurers of Huckleberry Finn which was a mixed live action/animated show in the 1968-9 He was also Harvey Logan in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid ( love the knife with Paul Newman)
The vast majority of these actors from ALL of these Shows were in Gunsmoke... many of them numerous times as different Characters. In fact, having watched all 635 episodes of Gunsmoke, it's difficult to name a Show from the '70s or even the '80s that didn't have major Characters who had appeared in Gunsmoke. I worked with Dennis Weaver, (Chester from Gunsmoke) 6 nights a week in a Theater Show. That reignited my interest in the series. (He did a 10 minute bit where Chester taught the audience how to play the Guitar.) I'm currently going through the entire 20 Seasons again. It was a GREAT Show. Maybe you could do a Show like this one and tie it to all the future TV Shows and Movies that each Actor was in. They included Jon Voight, Kurt Russel, Bette Davis, Jodie Foster, Ron Howard, Charles Bronson, Gary Bussey and many, many more. BTW, this was a well done video. I subscribed.
@@tvcrazyman It was a pure pleasure! He was not only a great Actor, he was a great Human Being. Some of my favorite memories are of the cookouts and get togethers off the Stage.
The Munster house was shown in several different tv shows and movies, the Sanford and Sons junkyard and the house from the movie Psycho were used in episodes of Emergency!
The Adventures of Superman was first televised in color, September 1965, as I remember from WPIX. In 1967, when Hazel went into syndication, it started with the second season, when it switched to color, and I think it was done this was, as it was very rare for syndicated shows to have any episodes to be televised in color at that time. As for '50's and '60's parents, not all had great sexual morals, as that was the era of swinging.
He was sold at auction (no mention of who bought him) in 2017 for $5,375,000. There's a replica (or variant) of him in the lobby of the Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas. I have a picture with him, it's pretty cool.
Olan Soule (pronounced, I believe, "So-lay") also did a series of TV PSAs for the American Prune Board, which attempted to get Americans to eat more prunes and drink more prune juice.
@user-rc8dy2oh4c I bought a '66 GTO in 1972 with a blown engine. Some jock tried to rebuild it, without a torque wrench. He had the attitude, "I'm strong, I don't need a damned torque wrench." When I tore it down. I found several main bearing caps laying in the oil pan. Two damaged connecting rods and a damaged crankshaft. I rebuilt it. then I installed a three speed automatic in place of the Power Glide. I had to have a 26 inch driveshaft made, then I modified the console shifter to work with it. The day that I got it running, I received a draft notice, after being told that I could never serve. It was red, with a black and woodgrain interior I was just 13 when it was introduced, nut I knew that I wanted one.
1:43 Maybe a "Good Thing" NOT getting up to put out the fire, Fires burn upwards faster than burning down. If he stood up, the fire might have quickly burned up his "Pant Leg". By remaining where he was, the fire is on the top of the toe, and would travel slowly!
That is interesting. I think I would jumped up in a state of panic and starting rolling on the ground. There is something to be said for remaining calm though.
Star Tre, TOS fan here. Was watching an episode of the Wild, Wild West, and saw a prop used on the Menagerie episodes. It is the wheelchair used by the injured ST character Christopher Pike.
If you ever wonder whether a scene was shot indoors or outdoors, just look at the ground. Check out the number of shadows a person or horse has, and whether those shadows go off in several directions. Given the fact that Planet Earth has ONE sun, if there are shadows in more than one direction, there were multiple sources of artificial lighting… therefore the scene was shot on a soundstage.
I was going to point out the same thing. Another giveaway is the number of reflections on shiny surfaces, which are the multiple individual lights overhead. There's also a different quality to the sound, if you're hearing the live actors recorded on-site and not dubbed later in post-production.
18:53 My Favorite...Huh? How about, "My Favorite Mar-sha", as in "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!" You know, "My Favorite MARTIAN" Great work! Enjoy it immensely!
Guy Williams wires also broke doing space screws on lost in space. Also Star Trek often used theMayverry city set for earth like planets or going back in time on earth.
@@tvcrazyman I recognize a Hagowie voice from the Underdog cartoon and an actor from dragnet. This is a fun video that had to take a lot of work to make. You must be my age, I'm 65 and watched a lot of tv in the 60s
@@tvcrazyman tv isn't the same today. I only watch UA-cam videos and so I am continually searching the cast credits for shows and movies and google images for the names of these actors
0:02 Notice how Superman stood still when he was fired at but... Ducked when the guy threw the empty 🔫 at him after he unloaded a full clip? Why would he duck?
F-Troop...... similar formula of the 1950s "Phil Silvers Show", and the early 60s "McHales Navy". All 3 shows featured a vice ladened underground/backroom operator, and all military.
18:52. Being a Super TV Trivia guy, I’m surprised you muffed “My Favorite Marcia”!😅. Marcia is pronounced “Marsha”. Thus the title is a spoof of the TV show “My Favorite Martian”.
You brought up the idea of the dust being kicked up. What about all the indoor scenes, especially black-and-white, westerns, when the sun is shining in the windows are open and you still see their shadows on the wall? That’s from the camera lighting.
And almost never is there the slightest breeze in the supposed outdoors when it’s filmed in studios. You’ll see tree branches and shrubs, but they never move even the tiniest bit. A simple fan off stage could provide intermittent breeze to see the scene as outdoor, or even have an unseen person pull a cord by tied to the fauna props.
@@brianarbenz1329 Let’s talk about driving scenes where it is clearly a movie in the rear window when the camera pans between characters, sometimes the road they’re on or car following changes. They amplified this and made fun of it in the movie “Airplane” when the guy picked up the pilot played by Loyd Bridges when he was driven from his house to the airport.
@@brianarbenz1329 all I can think of 100 scenes in that movie that were hilarious. When that air traffic controller pulled the plug out of the wall, and all of the runway lighting, went off at the same time which he replied just kidding. When they mentioned that they were on instruments, and they were playing musical instruments in the cockpit. Of course, my favorite one was when the guy was still waiting in the taxi what his fair was running up into the thousands of dollars, to name a few.
As a child of the sixties, I wonder if young people are interested in this kind of content. That would be like me seeking out programs of 1890's trivia. So most of the people who gravitate to this subject are probably on Social Security. I'm going back to sleep now until the nurse brings my medication.😊❤❤
As a kid of the 70's, I've always appreciated things that came way before me like the Three Stooges and Abbott and Costello movies. So surely there's some younger people today that like the classics. Of course, cable was big in my day starting in the 80's and they had lots of re-runs.
When “The Adventures of Superman” hit the air, did you see that the locomotive (which Superman was reportedly more powerful than) in the show open, was pulling a Southern Pacific “Coast Daylight” train?
At first the tribe of Indians in F-Troop was The Fukawi but they soon realised that the name was a joke as in "Where the Fukarewe?" and it was pulled from the show at the last moment.but most people who watched the show got it anyhow.
Even as a kid I never wondered about the dust because even then I realized that they are using a camera car and that’s only because my neighbor worked for Panavision, they rented camera equipment to the studios
It sometimes get mentioned how Grandpa's son, Lester doesn't look anything like Lily. I must point out that Grandpa had over a hundred wives and Lester could easily be Lily's half-brother.
If you are going to review Benny Goodman then you should know everything was supervised, arranged and conducted by Benny himself. There is also a cool video of this song on UA-cam
Born in '63, so many of these shows are the biggest memories of my childhood. It made me think of what a crazy, mixed up, but still fun country this was to live in for that time.

Same here loved watching The wild Wild West the Movie with Will Smith was stupid
The Daily Planet staff not being able to tell Clark was Superman is right up there with Commissioner Gordon not being able to tell batgirl was his own daughter.
To be fair, Batgirl wears a mask and a wig. Though the voice is easily recognizable, just like Bruce and Dick.

F-Troop...... similar formula of the 1950s "Phil Silvers Show", and the early 60s "McHales Navy". All 3 shows featured a vice ladened underground/backroom operator, and all military.
18:52. Being a Super TV Trivia guy, I’m surprised you muffed “My Favorite Marcia”!😅. Marcia is pronounced “Marsha”. Thus the title is a spoof of the TV show “My Favorite Martian”.
They don't make them like they used to.
What I thought was funny was the intro Superman was Ducking? why? he was the man od steel wasn't he? lol loved the show though.
my funniest memory of superman is that he stands up as the bad guys shoot at him but when they run out of bullets and throw the guns at him he ducks.
You brought up the idea of the dust being kicked up. What about all the indoor scenes, especially black-and-white, westerns, when the sun is shining in the windows are open and you still see their shadows on the wall? That’s from the camera lighting.
And almost never is there the slightest breeze in the supposed outdoors when it’s filmed in studios. You’ll see tree branches and shrubs, but they never move even the tiniest bit. A simple fan off stage could provide intermittent breeze to see the scene as outdoor, or even have an unseen person pull a cord by tied to the fauna props.
@@brianarbenz1329 Let’s talk about driving scenes where it is clearly a movie in the rear window when the camera pans between characters, sometimes the road they’re on or car following changes. They amplified this and made fun of it in the movie “Airplane” when the guy picked up the pilot played by Loyd Bridges when he was driven from his house to the airport.
@@aviatortrucker6285 That was one of Airplane!'s greatest satires.
@@brianarbenz1329 all I can think of 100 scenes in that movie that were hilarious. When that air traffic controller pulled the plug out of the wall, and all of the runway lighting, went off at the same time which he replied just kidding. When they mentioned that they were on instruments, and they were playing musical instruments in the cockpit. Of course, my favorite one was when the guy was still waiting in the taxi what his fair was running up into the thousands of dollars, to name a few.
Hazel! Gee, you think they could have exploited the robot just a touch more? Maybe opening shopping malls and such.
They got their money's worth.
18:53 “Marsha”, like My Favorite Martian
As a child of the sixties, I wonder if young people are interested in this kind of content. That would be like me seeking out programs of 1890's trivia. So most of the people who gravitate to this subject are probably on Social Security. I'm going back to sleep now until the nurse brings my medication.😊❤❤
As a kid of the 70's, I've always appreciated things that came way before me like the Three Stooges and Abbott and Costello movies. So surely there's some younger people today that like the classics. Of course, cable was big in my day starting in the 80's and they had lots of re-runs.
It was rumored that off set, Roddy the robot was gettin.busy with Grandma Walton
Ted Cassidy also played Thing in The Addams Family
they really got their moneys worth out of the Robbie the robot thing though. He was expensive but he was well utilized
50s 60s, no apostrophes. They're plural, not possessive.
When “The Adventures of Superman” hit the air, did you see that the locomotive (which Superman was reportedly more powerful than) in the show open, was pulling a Southern Pacific “Coast Daylight” train?
Madge black appeared on that Lucy Superman episode who would go on to play Aunt Harriet on Batman in 1966
*Blake.
At first the tribe of Indians in F-Troop was The Fukawi but they soon realised that the name was a joke as in "Where the Fukarewe?" and it was pulled from the show at the last moment.but most people who watched the show got it anyhow.
Even as a kid I never wondered about the dust because even then I realized that they are using a camera car and that’s only because my neighbor worked for Panavision, they rented camera equipment to the studios
1:10 Grandpa was actually Lillie's father, even though she & Herman called him Grandpa.
Yeah, I think that is common in families when grandchildren emerge.
@@spankynater4242 Yes it is.
But in one episode, Herman called Grampa, "my grandfather". Made no sense.
It sometimes get mentioned how Grandpa's son, Lester doesn't look anything like Lily. I must point out that Grandpa had over a hundred wives and Lester could easily be Lily's half-brother.
If you are going to review Benny Goodman then you should know everything was supervised, arranged and conducted by Benny himself.
There is also a cool video of this song on UA-cam
