They were all familiar to me aged 76 except number 3, I didn't recognize. We had a black and white nine inch TV which you had to watch in the dark. No remote needed - there was only one channel, BBC. Thanks for bringing back memories.
all great "classic" shows, which showed Love, Warmth, Family, Honesty, Integrity, Goodwill, etc. don't forget others like HAZEL the maid, Dragnet (detectives), and a bunch of Western/Cowboy shows
I love Lucy. Dennis the Menace.Father knows Best,Leave it to beaver, the Twilight zone, The Lone Ranger, Perry Mason, Wagon Train, The Donna Reed Show,
I got 'em all, watched 'em all. The introductory "Shall we play a game" came from the War Games movie in the 80s. I love that one and have it in my collection.
Well, the stage name "Michael Landon" looked a whole lot better than the actor's real name, Eugene Orowitz. Imagine his face with that name in the credits. I still think of him as the star of "I Was a Teenage Werewolf."
I got 6 out of 10, the other four as far as I know were not shown in the Uk, or if they were I never saw them. Perry Mason was a great favourite in our house.
Bonanza I Love Lucy, Dennis the Menace, Father Knows Best, Leave it To Beaver, twilight Zone, Lone Ranger, Perry Mason, Wagon Train, Donna Reed, Yay I got all of them 🤓
My grandson was examining the drum set in our church when his mom told him not to play with the drums. His reply, "Well, actually, Mom, you don't play drums. You just beat them." (grin) Yeah. A song he heard while watching Dagwood 'beating' the drums on an old Blondie movie I had bought on dvd. My grandchildren really enjoy these old black and white movies and tv serials that some of my generation and many others in the next gen have denigrated. Right now I am looking for the earlier Captain Kangaroo tv shows in black and white. Anyone know where to go? Looking for 1950s and 1960s.
AllenCajah Playz We recently were watching an episode of Live PD a reality show that follows cops on the job. The cop pulled over a guy who was driving erratically. The guy said “I wasn’t driving, just traveling!”😂
I watched Perry Mason a lot but one day it dawned on me the endings were very similar, due to his superior lawyer skills he'd have the bad guy confessing almost every time.
yes @Robert, cuz in those days, more substance and better story-lines; not a bunch of sex, violence, ignorance, hatred, immorality, etc as we have today
Amen, brother, amen! It seems the prime time TV shows today are aimed at the lowest possible common mental denominator for intelligence. If my wife ever turns the channel to a "2 Broke Girls" rerun, I swear I will shoot the TV.
These were easy. The reason I'm searching this stuff is for the name of a show that came on in the mid-fifties. I was 3 or 4 at the time. The show's intro had a young boy running, in terror, across the screen. He was looking over his shoulder as he ran, tripped, fell, then got to his feet and ran offscreen. After he was gone, a giant frog, about the size of, and walking upright like a man, came across the screen, chasing the boy. Anyone know the show? I can't find anyone that even remembers it, much less knows the name. I probably wouldn't remember it if it hadn't scared the crap out of me.
A working colleague of mine used to tell the story of how she was RESCUED by the Lone Ranger.... Yup! For real! She was a lovely lady named Shirley that I remember most fondly from our time working in in Cobham. While still a little girl attending school Shirley was injured at the school's summer fête. Clayton Moore, who was there to open the event in the character of Lone Ranger... ... (a role they say he had difficulty in NOT playing)... ... gallantly took Shirley in his big American open-topped car with cow horns on the bonnet (hood) to the local hospital Casualty Department (now called Accident and Emergency) and carried her into the building in his arms, all the while wearing the mask, the hat, the lot! Not surprisingly, this caused a sensation with the medical staff!. Who was that masked man? Well, it really WAS the Lone Ranger. # Ta-d-dum, ta-d-dum, ta-d-dum-dum-dum # This happened in UK. not the States.... in Surrey, Walton on Thames I think it was... if I remember Shirley's story correctly, which means the hospital was probably St Peters. (I hope that nice lady is still OK... none of us are young anymore.)
#7...."The Lone Ranger" was the name of the show. 1. Clayton Moore played the Lone Ranger. 2. Jay Silverheels played Tonto, his friend (Kemosabee). 3.Jay Silverheels was a Champion La Crosse player in Canada. Just a mention,
IIRC, Clayton Moore had a contract dispute 1 year and the Lone Ranger was played by John Hart. This was only for that 1 season, thank goodness. And, in the 2 episode origin of the Lone Ranger, the evil Butch Cavendish whose gang ambushed and killed all the Rangers except for the Lone Ranger was played by actor Glenn Strange who most famously played Sam the bartender at the Long Branch Saloon in Gunsmoke.
God help me, I got em all. Too easy! Now, if I had any inkling of how to do it, I'd make up a 50s/60s TV show quiz that might not be a skate! Would you recognize the opening credits to I Led Three Lives?
Living back then I knew them all, but it was a great review. When I closed my eyes I was mentally back in our old living room. Thank you!
Loved them all. Wish we could go back to the days of honesty, morals and good clean fun!
hey @Herman, we need more HONESTY, MORALITY, TRUTHFULNESS, INTEGRITY, and GOODNESS
so much lies, deceit, immorality, and evil in the world
Bonanza, I love Lucy, the 50's and 40's were my era, know them all. Thanks
brings back n.y.c. in good times.
Micheal Wildman Got them all and loved all of them. TV's golden era shows were clean and holsome. Thanks for this post.
Kinseydsp the stars of those shows in real life were not so clean and wholesome, however.😞
@@glennso47 The majority of them were!!!

brings back great memories.
Got every one of them right ! Whoopee !! I'm old , but my memory is still in tact.
Got them all !!! just shows I watched too much t.v back then, bad bad !!
Got them all!!! Great shows, all!
I still watch on classic t.v. channel s
Bonanza was actually a 60's show as it first aired 9/59 and ran only a few months in that year until '73
I knew most of them from the theme song, especially Twilight Zone. Don't think I'll ever forget that one.
Got 'em all. Yeah, I'm getting old. No, I am old. Fun watching these though. Thanks!
all great "classic" shows, which showed Love, Warmth, Family, Honesty, Integrity, Goodwill, etc. don't forget others like HAZEL the maid, Dragnet (detectives), and a bunch of Western/Cowboy shows
I love Lucy. Dennis the Menace.Father knows Best,Leave it to beaver, the Twilight zone, The Lone Ranger, Perry Mason, Wagon Train, The Donna Reed Show,
Got em all but the Donna Reed show! I'm old enough though to remember them when they first aired so.....;-) Thanks for the memory check.
I got 'em all, watched 'em all. The introductory "Shall we play a game" came from the War Games movie in the 80s. I love that one and have it in my collection.
I had these all before the first 4 bars of the theme song:)
You ain't just whistling Dixie. 72 last b-day.
Ohhh how I loved Michael Landon ,and his horse ❤️
Well, the stage name "Michael Landon" looked a whole lot better than the actor's real name, Eugene Orowitz. Imagine his face with that name in the credits. I still think of him as the star of "I Was a Teenage Werewolf."
all of them....perry mason was a cool show.... and donna always had lunch ready for dr.stone...I hadd to speed this up
Wagon Train had me foxed. The version I watched starred Ward Bond and Robert Horton.
Still watch Sat. AM at 11 on MeTV. That was the hour long version then the hour and half weekdays at 3:30 . Same channel in Jacksonville FL.
The Lone Ranger. I watch it all the time. I also watch Gun Smoke, Raw Hide, Wagon Train , Tails of Wells Fargo, and the Rifleman
I got 6 out of 10, the other four as far as I know were not shown in the Uk, or if they were I never saw them. Perry Mason was a great favourite in our house.
Thanks, loved it. Was looking for something like this for a class reunion site.
Did HE, you know, own a silver mine? What with dozens of bullets shot each episode and all made from silver, it had to be expensive. 😣
Yes
Got all of them except one, # 3," Dennis the Menace "
I could name them all because I grew up watching them all!
thanks for the entertainment and so well done...wonderful !c
if any of you can get metv on your cable, these are all on there now. i love it so much
Bonanza did start in 59 but I don't think they used their famous theme song the first year.
Yes they did
Donna Reed Show
i'm old enough to remember them all.. lol
had fun naming them
thanks for the videos
Bonanza I Love Lucy, Dennis the Menace, Father Knows Best, Leave it To Beaver, twilight Zone, Lone Ranger, Perry Mason, Wagon Train, Donna Reed, Yay I got all of them 🤓
That was fun, but you should add in the title " _Can You Name That 50's TV Show? _*_The answers are provided at the end of the video_* "
wow, a trip down Memory Lane for me
Got 'em all except "the Donna Reed Show." Never saw that one.
The case of the restless redhead in glorious black and white 😁😁😁
I'm another old guy who got them all. But does anyone remember: Sky King, The Cisco Kid, Wanted Dead or Alive ? Some of these may bleed into the 60's.
You bet!
Such clean old fashion living back then!!!!this world sucks today!
10/10
9 out of 10 missed Wagon Train.
got them all but donna reed show
I named timed them all! Great video.
I recognize a few but a lot of those shows never made it to the UK

wish they were still on instead of most of the crap that is!😲
Today's shows are all garbage.
Your nd alone Bob.

9/10.
Mistook Twilight Zone for The Outer Limits. I found both scary at the time.
I love Lucy
I wish you'd used some more obscure ones. These I could name in my sleep - no challenge at all
You could have put a difficult one in there like, " Tate" or " Man from Blackhawk"
I saw the rerun's of the shoe,the long Ranger.
That would be the TV show, "The LONE Ranger".🦄🏇🌠
I got 9/10.Not bad.
What about THE UNTOUCHABLES and THE DETECTIVES Starring Robert Taylor ??
#7...."The Lone Ranger" was the name of the show.
1. Clayton Moore played the Lone Ranger.
2. Jay Silverheels played Tonto, his friend (Kemosabee).
3.Jay Silverheels was a Champion La Crosse player in Canada.
Just a mention,
Jay Silverheels also raced sulkey horses.

Silver Eagle yeah but wasn't it still fun? It was for me and I knew them all within a second
Only miss Donna reed
Bonanza wasn't a 50's show...
Karen DeGraaf It started in 1958, so technically it was a 1950s show although it was still on into the 60s.
Many of us know them by just their initial music, their theme songs! We still prefer old westerns to other types of worthless programs today!
Had to read comments to get #3. Didn't watch that smart little arse. :)
Too Easy
Seriously? I know 10 year olds who could answer this. These shows are still being shown. Do you have cable?
God help me, I got em all. Too easy! Now, if I had any inkling of how to do it, I'd make up a 50s/60s TV show quiz that might not be a skate! Would you recognize the opening credits to I Led Three Lives?
