[photomitch]

I miss the days of "GOOD" Television like this..

[luviananna]

I still remember that opening theme. first time I've heard it in over 50 years.

dude. I swear to good I will PAY YPU- I will SEND YOU MONEY if you'll upload all of this. I swear/ Pay Pal, anyway, name a (reasonable) price.

Think it over....

[melollylolly]

who the hell wants to see reality shows where stupid stars bombard us with how much money they got --it nauseates me--and many of us don't have any money--and those that have money are not going to waste their time watching dumb reality shows--infomercials and wildlife tv--i wish others would cry out and advocate for a return to quality shows like this--maybe smarten up our young people as to quality programming instead of spoonfeeding everyone dumbass shit tv

[melollylolly]

eveen cable fails in quality shows; instead we get too much sex and bloodgoring violence-save for a few channels--television has no guts nowadays--there is no excitement anticipating a quality program anymore-it is ridiculous to say quaility is outdated;that will only be expressed by a dumb and uneducated mind

[melollylolly]

tv execs and directors think that viewers are stupid and watch any crap they will give them to watch;all they care about is MONEY;if so; if they put quality program like this back on tv;people WILL watch--and they will make even more money. TV has been a vast wasteland since the late 60s--early 70s--and --audiences that are young -some of them--and impressionable--have become dumb--by watching dumb pointless reality shows--and infomercials--and even cable fails in the quality shows-t

[melollylolly]

gollyeeee! i was only an infant when this quality stuff came on tv! look as what i missed out on! why can't they bring this stuff back to tv-instead of boring reality shows. The world isn't full of just young people--what about us not so young and older viewers--we do exist; you know.And i am sure there is some young viewers that would appreciate this stuff, ya know?

Hazel Court, who, as I've previously noted, appeared in Rod Serling's "The Fear" on

"TWILIGHT ZONE" [5/29/64], passed away a few days ago at age 82....

[Hickey66]

I agree with Papa. All we get is dumb ass nothing to do with reality shows. All the BBC sells is aristocracy and wild life. The guts has been punched out of TV by suits.

[PapaVic]

This is what television could be. Instead we get "reality" shows.

Martin Manulis passed away a few weeks ago. I just read his obituary in today's NEW YORK TIMES [10/2/07].

[giles422]

Terrific!

Yes, those were the days when CBS presented a LIVE 90 minute drama every Thursday night at 9:30pm(et). Rod Serling did indeed write this episode [inspired by his tour of duty during World War II], and virtually every one of the leading players {Cummings, Court, Balsam, Gates and O'Malley} later guest starred in Rod's "TWILIGHT ZONE". Julia Meade was the spokeswoman for "Your Gas Company".
