Thank you for The Secret Storm episode from November 8, 1957, on CBS-TV. Back when the Dodgers and Giants (baseball) were about to leave NYC for California, and professional sports in America would never be the same again. As cities in the West began to grow in population, sports would follow that growth. Anyway, while I never watched The Secret Storm on a regular basis, I would watch the sea waters pounding the shore and the announcer proclaiming the title of the program and who the sponsors were. That was the extent of it. However, I love those original commercials that spoke to previous generations.
It'll be 50 years next month that Secret Storm was cancelled and replaced by Tattletales. Thanks for posting this rarity - sadly, so few episode of it and its sister show Love of Life survive.
Thank you for another soap surprise! I've never seen this one and I never stop appreciating the time and effort it must take you with these rare uploads. This one is even more interesting because of that huckstering over the necklace at the end, which I've never seen attached to the end of one of the TV soaps.
@@MoviecraftInc The only other moment similar I can remember is when Search for Tomorrow sometimes plugged Mary Stuart's album at the end of an episode.
@@MoviecraftInc The radio version of STELLA DALLAS once offered a pin tied to the plot line of Laurel, Stella's daughter, being held captive by an Arab sheik, while Stella came to the rescue...the company making the pin had a production snafu, and as a result Lollie-Baby (Stella's pet name for her) had to fight off his untoward advances for three weeks until production could resume.
@@tomservo56954 The story is told in greater detail in "Tune in Tomorrow," the 1968 autobiography of Mary Jane Higby, who starred in "Stella Dallas," but was best known for her starring role in "When a Girl Marries," a long-running radio soap in the 1930s, 40s and 50s
I've always thought Jada Rowland is super cute. I've never seen her as a teenager. but the expressions and voice bring back pleasant memories of the grownup Jada.
Yes, back then two TV's in a household would have been quite unusual to let you see Bozo at the same time. Now, everyone has multiple tv's in many rooms!
My mom.watched all the soaps on CBS. Plus she watched General Hospital. I can barely remember this. I can remember the organ and piano music. I was born in 1963.
@@RaptorFromWeegee It said the last soap opera to use organ music was The Edge Of Night in 1975 when it switched networks. I believe it used to be on CBS. They switched to ABC.
@@sheriheffner2098 Thank you Sheri! Always wondered this. Dark Shadows, which I saw in reruns, was considered a soap opera and yet, they used regular recorded music when they started in 1966. But I also remember watching soaps during the 70s that still had organ music. I guess it was a gradual changeover. Such fond memories of watching soaps when I was home sick from school.
I think The Secret Storm didn't rapidly age the children like most other soaps do. The other two Roy Winsor soaps Search for Tomorrow and Love of Live also did not rapidly age children.
As seen weekdays at 12:15pm(et). Sponsored by American Home Products, on behalf of Boyle-Midway {Griffin, AerOwax}, and Whitehall Laboratories {Anacin [featuring John Griggs as spokesman], Kolynos}. 12:49- They also sponsored "HAVE GUN- WILL TRAVEL" (with Lever Brothers as the alternate sponsor) at the time. 14:23- "'SEARCH FOR TOMORROW ' is next, on the CBS TELEVISION NETWORK."
I meant, they didn't co-sponsor the prime-time edition of the series until the fall of 1960 {with Lorillard Tobacco [Newport]}. They were already one of the regular quarter-hour sponsors on the daytime edition by the fall of '58.
I have read the show was originally to be named "The Storm Within," but Whitehall Laboratories (which made Anacin and Kolynos) also made BiSoDol antacid...and didn't like the title...thus, the show became "The Secret Storm"
I remember my grandma watching this, and The Edge of Night.

Fun fact: Storm aired in 1954 under a different title card and logo. It wasn't until a few years later that the one you see was used.
Too cool! This was my grandmother's favorite soap. I actually was born six days before this episode aired. 🕊💖🖖
Thank you so much! Just when I think there’s nothing else left to see, this pops up! What a great find!
Glad to help!
I truly loved this show!
Yay! Another rare soap gem. Thanks for sharing this one!
Enjoy!
This is the first time I have ever seen Secret Storms. Interesting so far.

Glad to post. Very true, kinescopes of these shows are a rarity.
I was born in 52. I remember my mom watching this.

You are quite welcome. I did find the necklace commercial interesting and unusual for a soap series.

When THE SECRET STORM ended in 1974, Jada Rowland (Amy Ames) would replace Carol Ann Campbell (Hector Elizondo's wife) on THE DOCTORS.
This is a very nicely preserved film. I bet it took a lot of hard work to make it look this good. To whomever did it ; thank you.
Our pleasure! Appreciate your understanding of the complexity of film transfer to digital.
You're Welcome.

yeah she was pretty hot, especially in that nightie
I remember this show. Grandma on my daddy's side would watch this instead of us seeing Bozo on WGN Chicago in early 1960's.
Yes, back then two TV's in a household would have been quite unusual to let you see Bozo at the same time. Now, everyone has multiple tv's in many rooms!
Grandma deprived you of your afternoon Bozo?!? I just......I can't even....
@@RaptorFromWeegee😂
Thanks for the upload !! My first time seeing this. The same date that Days of our lives premiered on November 8 1965..
Never saw this soap before thanks for the upload and the great commercials keep up the great work 😊
Thank you! Will do!
This is my new favorite channel, besides my Catholic channels for prayer, and Mass.
Thank you...
If you ever run into any 70s episodes, I'd be over the moon!
You're welcome.! Not sure if I have episodes from the 70's but will keep looking.
@@MoviecraftInc Thank you so much!

When did they stop using organs for the soaps? I'm a `63 kid too.
@@RaptorFromWeegee I don't know. I can look it up though.

Do u Have any more soap episodes you have not posted yet? Love them
We are working on finding more in the collection.
if only someone had the Joan Crawford episodes from 1968.
Everyone involved said her being in the show was a mistake
Does anyone know the name of the young actress playing the daughter in the opening scene?
Jada Rowland
@@19ccj65 Thanks 👍🏼
