You have no idea how big Foreman Scotty was in OKC. He’d do a remote with WKY, and the kids would just pore out of the woodwork to see him. Got to be on the show one time. Idk how he put up with all those ornery kids. Thanks for posting.
For some reason his name popped up in my memories!! My sister & I were a year & 1 day apart & we were going to be on the program March 27, 1965 & the it was my 7th birthday 🥳 I told my sister that I was going to sit on the birthday horse & she said no, I don’t want you to sit on it & if you don’t then I will give you the Golden Horseshoe cuz I’m going to be chosen but I didn’t let her make my decisions & I sat on the birthday horse & she was chosen for the Golden Horseshoe!! I still remember that day like it was yesterday so thanks for the memories & seeing the horse cuz I had forgotten what it looked like!!! Awesome memories
I remember being on the For an Scotty Show on my 6th birthday. I got to sit on Woody. Thanks for posting. I got to meet him again at the state fair a couple of years later.
Sounds like you were one of the fortunate ones to be able to be on the show and meet him twice. He sure was loved by a lot of kids. Thank you for watching!
i was on his show too. It was my birthday and I sat on the horse. This link isn't me but you can see the set. i.pinimg.com/originals/ee/ac/4c/eeac4c80f3bce39d245f087bd5694be7.jpg
I use to watch the show daily when living in Cushing OK from 1964 to about 1970. I haven't thought about this in years, thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I remember. I grew up with his show and loved watching it ! Thank you for this. I wish he had a marker with his television name and face chiseled out on it, like Ho Ho the Clown. Otherwise, people wouldn’t know what he did after his much appreciated military service. I had forgotten what his real name was.
Thanks, that brings back some memories. I watched Foreman Scotty daily from about 1959 through 1963. In about 1960 for my 5th birthday, I was on his show. I remember one time he was captured, and placed in a cave/mine behind a barbed wire fence. His pistol was taken, but he still had his holster and ammo. He found a small hole in the log gate frame, just the right size to insert a bullet. When his captor returned, he used a rock to fire the bullet, hitting the captor, and was able to escape. Thought that was really cool. Told my Dad about it, and he explained why that wasn't realistic. I learned young how fake TV was. We left OK City in 1964, and after several other moves, I recently found Powell's obituary that someone had evidently mailed my parents. If I can locate it again, and if you want it, I'll send it to you.
That's pretty neat to hear your experiences watching him do even going on the show. He really did capture the attention and hearts of many children. I'm amazed at how many little girls loved him as well. I figured it would have been more of a boy thing. He was certain a huge part of early television in Oklahoma City. Thank you so much for watching and sharing.
Cool! I found your video while checking to see whatever became of Foreman Scotty. In 1965, for my brother's 8th birthday, my Mom got a group of us kids tickets to be on the show. It was marvelous, and I remember it like it was yesterday.
It would be nice to see a little something like that there. This cemetery doesn't have strict regulations so maybe that can happen. He was certainly loved by many. Thank you for watching!
I watched Foreman Scotty every day when I was 5 and 6. My brother was scheduled to have his birthday on the show, but I nearly sliced my big toe off and had to go to hospital. We didn’t get to go on the show and my brother probably never forgave me. Thanks for doing this. I moved to Dallas at age 7 but always wondered what happened to Foreman Scotty.
A couple of my cousins and I were on the Foreman Scotty Show once, in the mid 60’s. It was my cousin’s birthday, and he got to sit on Foreman Scotty’s horse. We had a great time!
I never knew him .I grew up in the Uk. I bet the kids loved him. I remember how we used to run home after school to watch our favourite. Thank you for the memory. Keep safe.
@@RhettyforHistory You really are stretching my memory now Rhett. There was Muffin the mule. Rag tag &bobtail & Billy Bunter. Wish i could see what they are like now. We didn't have a TV so all us kids went to the one house that had one. They were lovely people & their girls were grown up so they were always pleased to see us. Hope you find them.
Great video RhettyforFun. We had Sheriff John (Rovic) who's show came on at 12PM in Los Angeles. He also was a great man and loved kids. A bomber pilot in WWII he flew 50 missions in the European theater. I know how you feel because we feel that way about Sheriff John
Very interesting. I'll have to look him up and see if I can find his show as well. Definitely seems like the same sort of breed of men and certainly another hero in my book! Thank you for watching and sharing!
I never thought about it before, but I guess every large city in the country probably has a local TV star like this. In LA, when I was growing up we had Sheriff John and also Tom Hatten. Nice to learn about your local hero.
It wasn't a normal day if I didn't get to come home and watch Foreman Scotty. I even got to ride on Woody on my birthday as a kid. Evidently my family lived near Mr. Powell as I ran into him a couple of times at the grocery store as a teenager. Good subject you chose Rhetty. You can actually see some of his show on you tube. Thanks for bringing one of OKC's pioneers back.
He really was quite the man and loved by so many. Both girls and boys looked up to him. You were certainly one of the lucky ones being there during your birthday. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience.
Being from New England, and born in 1970, I've never heard of Steve Powell... regardless, it was nice to learn about his TV show, his fame, and his love for children. I read many of the comments below, also, and it was great to see how many happy memories you brought back [to them] with this video! A job well done, Rhett! Thanks!!! Take care and stay healthy! Valerie
I'm sure there was probably a different TV character that was popular where you are. It's interesting to learn of these bygone shows like this. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
I was born in 1952 and grew up in Amarillo. I never heard of this man but do remember local TV personalities and the one and only Captain Kangaroo. I suppose that in the early 1970s they were all done in by Sesame Street. Great video, Rhetty!
An interesting note here. Foreman Scotty (Steve Powell), Captain Kangaroo (Bob Keeshan), and Mr. Rogers (Fred Rogers) were all war veterans. Keeshan and Rogers served in WW2. Powell served in Korea.
Bob Keeshan was indeed a military hero during WW2 and was in Iwo Jima. Steve Powell was a hero in Korea. Fred Rogers registered for the draft in 1948 when he was 20 years old. Not sure why he registered late but he did. At that time he was a student in college and was deemed fit for service with a selective service number. You can easily pull his draft registration up online. In 1950 he reported for duty but at that time he was deemed unfit for service. His files were part of the ones destroyed in the file so we don't know why he was unfit for duty. So he never actually had any service in the military at all. He even equated war to child abuse as we sent our young kids off to fight. He was a soft spoken man who was a ordained minister. Tried to love everyone and celebrate differences in people. He was a vegetarian because he did not want to hurt animals either. But he was a hero in a different way. Preaching acceptance, dealing with feelings and self confidence. He also educated people on many different things. I enjoyed his program very much as a young child.
I remember watching his program one evening and a bunch of little boys started laughing and couldn't stop. Foreman Scotty went to the boys and asked what was to funny. One of the boys announced "Arthur Farted"!!!. My dad almost fell out of his chair and the show quickly went to commercial. I think my dad told me that after the evening news ended, the reporter said, "And goodnight Arthur, where ever you are!"
I also grew up watching Foreman Scotty. Everyone in my family knew not to touch the TV while I was watching Foreman Scotty. Besides his pistol, he occasionally carried an M1 carbine, which I thought was cool because it showed he was a modern cowboy. I was sad when his show went off the air because my kids would not get to watch him. He had a positive influence on an entire generation. His show taught good values while still being entertaining to kids.
*Hi Rhetty, Just letting you know, I just purchased one of your mugs as promised that I would to support your channel using PayPal through teespring. I do appolize for the delay being very busy but I wanted to get it out of the way. I seen & heard Steve Powell (former forman Scottie) about but never followed him on any of the old shows. He did a outstanding service by educating with fun for the childrens benefits & much respect for him serving in the military. Rest In Peace Scottie* ! 🙏
"Those were the days, my friend." When you didn't have to worry about the content of tv shows. You'd come home from school and watch those kind of shows and enjoy life. Each state had their own type of kids shows. In Utah we had Fireman Frank. Thank you Rhett for the memories.
I somehow got to be on Foreman Scotty's show twice. Probably once was a grade school field trip and the other possibly with a bluebird or campfire girls' group. Great memories!
just started with you,, forman scotty, reminded me of captain gus who had a cartoon show in san antonio texas in the 50s & 60s. same studio set up you described.
Isn't interesting how there were different shows like this? They seemed more personal for each area. Little sad to see stuff like this go. Thank you for watching!
Never made it to the show but got a phone call from Forman Scotty to guess the secret number. It was the number 4, which won me a board game from the local Otasco.
Greetings from Raton, NM. I don’t remember that guy but I do remember Danny Williams. He had a morning show in the late 70’s called Danny’s Day. Mary Hart was his co host and she went on to Hollywood and got a little more famous. Good story. 👍
Danny was definitely a big name here. He did so many different things. I do remember him as a kid being on TV, doing commercials and radio. He had quite the television career too. Thank you for watching!
Wow! I really enjoyed this. It brought back memories of local tv personalities I grew up with here in So Cal. Too bad syndication has put local tv shows out of business. Such was the fate of many Late Night TV Horror Host as well.
It really is too bad. I think these local ones are much more personal and many of them were just so wholesome. I'm curious what the name was of the shows you used to watch?
@@RhettyforHistory As a child in the early '60's, I watched Sheriff John & Engineer Bill. My late night horror host was "Seymour." I met him a few times when he would do live shows at movie theaters at Halloween. That would be in 1971 & 72.
I remember watching Foreman Scotty and 3 D Danny. And my class went to be on the Ho Ho the clown show if anyone remembers that. On that trip back in the 60s we were at science museum on northeast 50th . That museum had a big black torpedo then. When I went back with my kids last in about 2013 it was still there on the west side by a model of the U.S.S. OKLAHOMA.
That’s to bad it’s A time gone by. I think almost every city had a popular local kid shows. Growing up in Florida it was a submarine captain kid show. Moved to Ohio it was a train engineer and a woodsman and an elf. 😁 Never missed an episode.
That's really interesting to hear about the shows in the different regions. They all seemed like they were pretty wholesome shows and it's too bad things like that aren't one TV anymore. Thank you for watching and sharing some of those experiences with the different ones.
I was on the Foreman Scotty Show twice and my sister won the golden horseshoe on her birthday. You should do a vlog about Ho Ho the Clown "Edward Phillips Birchall" Buried at the El Reno cemetery.
I have visited his grave but that was before I did RUclips but he is certainly on the list for people to cover. I really loved him. Thank you for watching!
There were lot of kids shows like that local around the country. Here in DFW we had a couple of cowboy types as well as a guy named Icky Twerp on Channel 11 in the '60's
Very interesting. I'll have to look him up. It's too bad there aren't shows like that anymore. They really do seem more personal and wholesome. Thank you for watching and sharing about the show you grew up with.
I am the one that kept badgering Forman Scotty to take off his hat!!! Because it’s rude to wear a hat indoors!!! Lol And he took off the hat for the rest of the show to shut me up!! 😂😂😂
My brother and I were on that show in the 60s... 'won' a chick from their charity incubator (the charity for whichever egg hatched first got the donation). Mine turned out to be a rooster...
If you have time, can you do a video of Ft Gibson National Cemetery? My dad is buried there, but by the flag pole, I believe, is a circle of headstones with prominent people. About 12 or 15 headstones. Thanks!
I was on the show 1965 funny story he would always ask the Cub Scouts are Boy Scouts the first one he interviewed in my case with me and I belong to Dan four pack 114 so he turned to the rest of the kids and said is everyone hear from Dan four pack 114 and there was silence I was the only one there from my pack that hostess pie tasted great and the Zoo key worked perfect

You're welcome and thank you for watching. He was sure a big part of television here in Oklahoma.
Perhaps also on his headstone - "Foreman Scotty" He brought Great Joy to the kids, it must have been lot's of fun! Thank You for sharing.
You're welcome. You could pass right by him and never know that he was loved by so many. Thank you for watching!
Cool video!!!! I got to set on the horse for my birthday.
That really would have been quite the experience. Thank you for watching!

Thank you for all the research you do and giving life to those who have made a big difference but for passing this way.

Grew up watching Foreman Scotty every day after school

I lot of people love it both male and female. I think that spoke volumes. Thank you for watching!

"Those were the days, my friend."
When you didn't have to worry about the content of tv shows.
You'd come home from school and watch those kind of shows and enjoy life.
Each state had their own type of kids shows.
In Utah we had Fireman Frank.
Thank you Rhett for the memories.
I somehow got to be on Foreman Scotty's show twice. Probably once was a grade school field trip and the other possibly with a bluebird or campfire girls' group. Great memories!
You were really fortunate to be on their twice! Thanks for sharing the memories!
Seems, like an Awesome guy, Ive Never heard of him...Stay Safe..
I never watched him but he did seem like quite a guy. Thank you so much for watching!

Loved him as a child.
I watched Foreman Scotty when I was a kid in Moore, Oklahoma and the Choctaw Nation.
Thank you for sharing..I have never heard of this man...
He really was quite the man. Thank you so much for watching!
I watched that show religiously as an 8 year old boy in 1964. Seems like I remember it airing very early on saturday morning though. Maybe as a rerun?
What a cool video

It wasn't just syndication that killed local programs, the FCC had a hand in it as well. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_for_Children%27s_Television
I was on his show on my birthday when I was 5. 😬
How great is that? Thank you watching and sharing your memory!

We had a show like that on in Missouri. I forgot the name, Some classmates of mine got to be on there,I wasnt invited,
It's interesting how these were big in each area and then they were pushed out by a bigger nationwide kids show. Thanks for watching!

Very interesting. I'll have to look him up. It's too bad there aren't shows like that anymore. They really do seem more personal and wholesome. Thank you for watching and sharing about the show you grew up with.
❤️
Thank you for watching!
I am the one that kept badgering Forman Scotty to take off his hat!!! Because it’s rude to wear a hat indoors!!! Lol And he took off the hat for the rest of the show to shut me up!! 😂😂😂
I remember him well!
Thank you so much for watching!
As a 3rd grader, I won a drawing and a Monopoly game....

My brother and I were on that show in the 60s... 'won' a chick from their charity incubator (the charity for whichever egg hatched first got the donation). Mine turned out to be a rooster...
If you have time, can you do a video of Ft Gibson National Cemetery? My dad is buried there, but by the flag pole, I believe, is a circle of headstones with prominent people. About 12 or 15 headstones. Thanks!
I do want to go out there and make a video of that cemetery. It is a pretty large cemetery. Thank you for watching!
Wonder if he's related to the Powell family I know. Unless I'm mistaken, they came to this area from Oklahoma.
That would be interesting to know. Thank you for watching!
