1966 was the greatest year for TV in the history of the medium.......Tina Louise AND Barbara Eden..... Star Trek and Batman..... Gleason and Sullivan...... Wow.
The greatest time of all in television and every show I see here I get tears in my eyes! This world has changed so drastically since the 1980s its just horrible !!!!!
I had no idea the original ratings for I Dream of Jeannie were so low. My mum and I loved it, and we often had dinner in the family room to watch it when it re-ran on our local station Tuesday evenings. We also loved Bewitched, My Three Sons, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, Nanny and the Professor, and so many more from that time or shortly after. I miss those shows that were fun for the whole family!
On the contrary- as previously noted, "I DREAM OF JEANNIE" gave Jackie Gleason serious ratings competition....and forced "THE KING FAMILY SHOW" off the air in January 1966.
I was 10. My dad was the remote, we did not have a color television and weren't allowed to watch much tv. Especially " hippie" shows, I think parents meant dancing and singing. Ed Sullivan was the exception. I went next door in the summer to watch reruns. RIP mom and dad. You did the best you could.✌🏻💜💐
My dad controlled the tv when he was home (and there was only one). There was no consensus ever taken about what anyone else wanted to watch. He had three type shows he'd watch and nothing else. Westerns, war and cop shows. A few of those shows were okay but I liked comedy a lot. I'd only ever get to see those type of shows if he wasn't home or if I went to a friends house. I love looking back at TV from this era and am glad that a lot of it is becoming public domain now so they're easy to find.
Unusual to see Gleason playing Ralph Kramden in COLOR! Donna Loren, one of my favorite singers, was a regular on "Shindig". The reason ABC brought back the "King Family Show" was because the network needed a replacement for the ill-fated comedy/variety series "Turn-On", which had gotten cancelled after just one episode.
February 1965...it's Saturday night and I'm watching the Hollywood Palace. At 14 years old, I wasn't a big fan of this show...but this Saturday night, the guest host was Groucho Marx. My dad loved the Marx Brothers and, as a result, I grew up loving them too. On this particular night, Groucho's extra special guest was Margaret Dumont...the famous comedic foil in most Marx Brother's movies. Over many years, she had proven herself a good sport while enduring countless insults and pranks from Groucho and his brothers. She and Groucho had a wonderful time running through some bits from the old movies...I enjoyed it greatly. It wasn't until 40+ years later, that I learned Ms. Dumont passed away less than a week after that show. I further learned (via the internet) that Groucho was heartbroken upon learning the news. Summer 1977 saw Elvis and Groucho pass within days of each other...a difficult week for most. Several years ago, my daughter gave me a boxed set of all 13 Marx Brothers movies...needles to say, I've rediscovered my childhood love for Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Zeppo and Margaret as well.
I remember when the TV guide that came in the Sunday (Rocky Mountain news) paper used to tell you when the show was in color. Then over time it would say the show was b&w.
I love watching The King Family on here. I have no memories whatsoever of this but I seen it a few years ago on Get TV and had no idea that Tina Cole from My Three Sons was one of the daughters of these talented women.
nother winner, Fred. I eager The Loner is one of the series Rod Sterling is LEAST remembered for. Think Twilight Zone pretty well typed him from there on out, though he did good work in other genres.
I really appreciate you presenting this. I was 11 years old in 1965. I can remember all of them with the exception of The Loner. Thanks for the walk down memory lane!
Oh Man. Flipper was another one this boy's favorite if there ever was one out of a ton of others. Great show! And that Singer commercial? Our house had one and mom would spend so much spare time on that sewing machine. She like other mom's were really good with it. Can't shake that weird question she would ask me often times. "Would you come in here a minute and help me with this bobbin?" Oh my goodness what a time of this and that's. Another super effort very much appreciated FredFlix. And talking about being cooped up, I bet that's exactly how most of us )baby boomers) feel these days with all the junk produced with plastic (Yuck) and so much acceptance from the "other" generation who hasn't a clue what and the way life really was meant to be or any of the freedoms that period made possible.
If Larry Hagman had encountered an actual "Ginn", just think how much fun he would have had in the few seconds before he died in some supremely horrific way !!!
One thing that is amazing with these old commercials is: This was in the days when America made televisions!!...if you can believe that...and cars too! We don't have the ability to make things like that anymore.
Love to watch many of these shows and great stars like Jackie Gleason and presented by Geritol is Lawrence Welk and Get Smart was cool but the promos were nice to watch again when products were made in the USA. Gunsmoke ended its longtime producer and writer and went to color . To me the old B/W episodes were the best since after the show was like any other Western on TV except The Wild wild West .Thanks Fred .🥂
Yes back when TV was Good. But just think of all the people who were killed because of smoking.. Smoking is totally gross and should be banned everywhere!
It's interesting to note that photo with Barbara Eden with Groucho Marx for "I Dream Of Jeannie" that Barton MacLane (General Martin Peterson) was a lifeguard in the Marx Brothers' first feature film ("The Coconuts").
3 channels packed with quality. Hard to chose between the shows. I never heard of The Loner by Rod Serling. Interesting. I notice at the end credits it's Interlaken Productions. That's a place in the Finger Lakes < NY. Serling was from Binghamton and ultimately lived in Ithaca NY. Many references to upstate NY in his work.
According to The Lennon Sisters, The Lawrence Welk Show moved to another studio that year, which was also they were in color. In one of the shows on PBS, they interviewed Diane, known as Dee Dee Lennon and she said that both she and Peggy were pregnant at the same time and they had to climb a lot of stairs. In their dressing room, they had a sign that read "The Stork Room, with pictures of storks on the walls. Peggy had a son and Diane had a daughter. Diane's first daughter Mary was adopted because she thought she couldn't have any children. She had left Lawrence Welk earlier, but right after she and her husband got Mary, she got pregnant with the baby,and Mary's adoption was supposed to be final, that he lost his job and they thought that Mary would be taken away. So she went to Lawrence and told him what happened and Lawrence weclomed her back.
"The Loner" was a short-lived western starring Lloyd Bridges which preceded Gunsmoke. I liked the show, but like many others that I liked during this era, it had a very short lifespan.
5:54- "Lackluster"? On the contrary, "I DREAM OF JEANNIE" had equal the ratings--- or *better* - then Jackie Gleason at 8pm(et). NBC was shocked, to say the least......they believed the series was never going to be a ratings success, so they insisted it NOT be filmed in color, despite Sidney Sheldon's objections [he offered to pay for the extra cost for color film out of his own pocket, but was overruled by the network and Screen Gems executive Jerry Hyams, who said, "Sidney, don't throw your money away"]. "JEANNIE" became the LAST black and white prime-time series on NBC's 1965-'66 schedule.
When I was little, my late dad used to love Jackie Gleason. I remember seeing him watch this show. Remember the episode of The Flintstones when their version of Shindig was on? And the man Jimmy ONeal too.I think I watched Flipper. The newspaper article was wrong. The first year of I Dream Of Jeannie was in Black & White. Because NBC thought it wouldn't last. I read in Barbara Eden's book that Sidney Sheldon himself was going to use his own money to put the show in Color, but NBC said no.
Also Bewitched ended its long run on ABC in the same timeslot where IDoJ began, but by this time All in the Family was wiping out whatever ABC put on then. NBC succeeded a bit here by counterprogramming Emergency in this same timeslot. Ozzie & Harriet, on Saturday nights in its 14th & last season, was actually in color (on ABC even!) that season. I was watching a small station on a trip to Waco, TX a few years back and remember seeing a color O&H episode, though it was a really bad, probably public domain, print.
How about looking at it this way... TV back then was building the vocabulary of narrative and visual gestures and devices which is the basis for how we watch stories now. Some of it was naively charming, some of it bland and empty, some of it shockingly tone deaf, and some small part of it was brilliant for any era. Personally, I don't see how that proportion has changed much. Some TV is brilliant, most of it ranges from derivative to appalling. The form has become more complex over time, but the percentages are about the same.
I liked Flipper,and Lost in Space. I always wondered what it would be like to grow up with a dolphin,and live in space one or two of my dreams,back then
My first experience with TV must have been when I was about 2 1/2 . All I remember about it was I wandered into my parents bedroom and some scruffy cowboy pointed a gun at me. I ran out of the room, and forgot to ask for my Cheerios.
Remember The Flintstones episode where they watched Shinrock with Jimmy O Nealrock. Fred got to go on it because he hurt his foot and screamed and jumped up and down and started a dance craze, The Frantic?
"THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW" continued to be produced and telecast in black and white during the 1965-'66 season. It was finally taped in color, beginning in the fall of 1966.
Remember the episode of The Flintstones when they watched Shinrock and Fred invented the dance when he hit his leg and screamed "Yabba Dabba die yi yi yi!"
I've collected TV stuff since VCRs came out in the '70s. I also have ordered stuff from video sellers for decades. And if I don't have what I need, I pull it from RUclips if available.
I have TV guides from the 1965-66 season. It was not in color yet that season, though it would be the following year, along with all other prime time shows.
Jackie Gleason's show wasn't in color until 1966, but it would be hard to find any 1965 Jackie Gleason Show footage. I do remember briefly in the 1980s a Boston Indy station was carrying 1/2 hour reruns of his show, similar to Carol Burnett's 1/2 hour edited version of her show, but I don't think it lasted long. I still remember hearing a reference on that show to "American Scene Magazine", which is what it was called around 1962.
@@tomservo56954 Rod was a partner in the series with producer William Dozier. By early 1966, Serling was fed up with the network's insistence his stories feature more "action" {gunplay, fights, riunaway horses and stagecoaches}, and decided to withdraw from the production. Ratings competition from ABC's "THE HOLLYWOOD PALACE" and NBC's "SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES" [especially when a "name" movie was scheduled, including "Sunset Blvd.", "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" and "Vertigo"] ended the series after 26 episodes.
That shaky Gunsmoke opening that you have here was from the 1965-66 season. Season 11 was the show's last in B&W and its first to show any cast members other than James Arness in the opening credits. Gunsmoke would from then after show 2 openings, first the famous opening where Matt Dillon wins a showdown (or rides by on his horse) before the opening scene, and then the opening with the full regular cast after the opening scene.
Of note I Dream of Jeannie was "buried " on Saturday because NBC had no faith in the series. It was NBC'S last scripted series to air in B&W. Ironically the combination of Flipper and Jeannie proved very difficult for The Jackie Gleason Show(American Scene Magazine). It was a tight race all season. Flipper. Jeannie and Get Smart were 3 of the biggest surprises that season. NBC Saturday Night at the Movies also had a very strong season
I'm addicted to these. I'm thinking Gunsmoke, The Lucy Show, WERE on Mondays. I remember watching TV with my mom, and sisters. Dad was usually on the road trucking.

@@tomservo56954 Rod was a partner in the series with producer William Dozier. By early 1966, Serling was fed up with the network's insistence his stories feature more "action" {gunplay, fights, riunaway horses and stagecoaches}, and decided to withdraw from the production. Ratings competition from ABC's "THE HOLLYWOOD PALACE" and NBC's "SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES" [especially when a "name" movie was scheduled, including "Sunset Blvd.", "Gunfight at the O.K. Corral" and "Vertigo"] ended the series after 26 episodes.
The best show on TV 65 66 Flipper by far!
It is ok but at least 30 better shows that season!
That shaky Gunsmoke opening that you have here was from the 1965-66 season. Season 11 was the show's last in B&W and its first to show any cast members other than James Arness in the opening credits. Gunsmoke would from then after show 2 openings, first the famous opening where Matt Dillon wins a showdown (or rides by on his horse) before the opening scene, and then the opening with the full regular cast after the opening scene.
I don't think a bathroom ever existed in the Ozzie and Harriet household.
Of note I Dream of Jeannie was "buried " on Saturday because NBC had no faith in the series. It was NBC'S last scripted series to air in B&W. Ironically the combination of Flipper and Jeannie proved very difficult for The Jackie Gleason Show(American Scene Magazine). It was a tight race all season. Flipper. Jeannie and Get Smart were 3 of the biggest surprises that season. NBC Saturday Night at the Movies also had a very strong season
The World War II drama CONVOY also ran in black & white on NBC that season (filmed that way because of its use of newsreel footage)
FLIPPER was an out of the box hit when it debuted the season before...
I Dream of Jeannie was the original jiggly boobs show. In 1965 Barbara Eden wore a felt vest that outlined her nipples.
The Hollywood Palace had replaced the ill- fated Jerry Lewis Show in January of 1964. The show ran for 7 seasons mostly Saturdays at 9:30 Eastern.
All those cigarette ads!
What about Saturday late night...One Step Beyond or an old Italian movie?!
No network programming scheduled then...
Ive watched One Step Beyond here on YT It was an excellent show.
Yea, buddy. They sometimes showed offbeat stuff on 'All Night Movies'. Local channel used to thru 1970s-
