10.23.07 by Widge @ 10:42 pm Here's an interview bit with Burt Ward as Robin, where we can see the beginnings of the creepy evil influence of the New New DC, in which everything has to be dark and seedy. As we've previously observed, it was the lack of Hostess sponsorship that screwed up everything. Update: Sadly, the vid's been taken down. Somebody let me know if it comes back--it's classic. Found via Classic Television Showbiz. And as a bonus, after the break is a great selling reel, promoting Batman as well as the Green Hornet. If NeedCoffeeTV was a reality, I would definitely sign us up for both shows. Categorized as: TV

10.22.07 by Widge @ 7:00 am Been a while since we've done these because it's hard sometimes to find something just batshit enough to really get you ready for the week. But to make up for it, here's this. I think this bridges the WTF-gap you currently have in your lives. Direct link for the feedreaders. Categorized as: TV

10.11.07 by Widge @ 10:24 am Posting this partly because I'm not sure I ever saw the original, unedited 1969 version, on television, and partly because Mark Evanier is here to give you the full background: The fox is Paul Frees, who was the voice of everything while he was alive. The turtle is Ralph James, an actor who is probably best known today for voicing Orson, the commander of Mork on Mork & Mindy. He runs down all the voices. Check out his post here. Categorized as: TV

08.28.07 by Widge @ 2:37 am Why post this great vid? Well, you've got Dean Martin, Buddy Ebsen, Lee J. Cobb, Charles Nelson Reilly and Jackie Vernon, all tapping and singing away. But, think about it another way: how often do you get to see Jamie Blake, Frosty the Snowman, Jed Clampett, Jose Chung and Detective Kinderman all dancing together? Answer: not often.

08.21.07 by Widge @ 4:21 am Classic Television Showbiz posts this great bit featuring Jack Benny and Phil Silvers on The Dick Cavett Show. There's more about Sgt. Bilko than anything else, but Benny drops a couple of choice lines where needed. Classic, funny stuff: Categorized as: TV
