Thanks for the upload--brings back all sorts of memories.

Inspired silliness. I still prefer the original recording, though. My mom introduced this to my younger brother and me somewhere during our middle school years and our jaws dropped to the floor, it was so shockingly, subversively funny. 60 years on, the entire recording still holds up well.

Always preferred the original "Partridge Family" theme (thanks)...my grandmother loved the "Dan August" series... the "Night Gallery" theme and opening montage used to seriously freak me out and still sort of does...very disappointed that the sweet Addrissi Brothers theme for "Nanny and the Profe...

Terrific series, should have run a lot longer. I've always thought "Banacek" was to Peppard what "Rockford Files" was to James Garner--the role that fit him like a glove.

@LB9997 Unfortunately they've become allergic to the cost of mounting a great production with a quality cast and scripts--"reality" programming (the scourge of our existence) is so much cheaper--that I suspect today's network honchos have forgotten how to do it. Our loss. These days I watch PBS a...

My favorite version of the original opening theme--just the right tempo. There was no one quite like Telly Savalas and his cynical-cop-with-a-heart alter ego, Theo Kojak. Glad we had the sense back then to make this show a hit. I would love the chance to see the gritty tv movie-pilot that starte...

Okay, two things: what is the name of the good-looking Young Lawyer? He looks familiar but I can't place him.

And two: what the hell happened to Michael "Then Came Bronson" Parks? He was one of the dreamboats in the early-mid sixties and is only 29 here but looks positively middle-aged! The Enc...

Very cool--thanks for this! The AJ pancake jingle came back to me in a flash, I remember it well. (Mom loved to make pancakes for us on weekends) Not so much the other ads for some reason. Maybe because we didn't have a car or a cat and I hated oatmeal back then? :-)

Paul Lynde back in the day was the funniest man alive no matter where he appeared or what he did--but we were soooo disappointed when this show finally debuted. My family and I wanted to love it (because we loved him) but it was the wrong premise entirely for him. You had the feeling ABC hadn't t...

Oh, wow--the HAIR! Love it!!

I was in grammar school in the '60s and '70s and paid little attention to it, but the theme is instantly recognizable to me because it's one of the soaps my grandmother watched religiously. Makes me smile now, remembering her and how seriously she took these shows. (I should talk-- I was home fro...

And Dixie Carter as Brandy Henderson! Where was I and why wasn't I watching?? Dammit!

You are a jewel for uploading this! I'd forgotten that stern intonation: "The Edge.... of Night" though I don't know how since I practically grew up listening to it--my grandmother LOVED this soap. Thanks again!

@TheSolitaryHeart No idea what the appropriate response is to that.

@Incogitor Yes, exactly. I mean, I actually can enjoy it to a point--Lohan is so charismatic and sweet in her dual roles and Richardson is lovely in her youthful, warmly British way--but it feels like a movie out of time (which in a way it is, of course, since it's a remake of a 1960 Halyley Mill...

I have never heard this version before! Love it, thanks for uploading it!

By the way, I'm wondering if the Eartha recording of Santa Baby I have on an MCA 1983 release tape cassette is actually the 1963 Kapp re-recording you mention? The tempo is sprightly rather than the hammocks pace you hear...

There actually exists an alternate version of this song without the male back-up singers. It's a 1983 MCA release--I have the cassette--and I wish I could find a digital version of it somewhere. It's much sexier without the annoyng ba-ba-ba-booms in the background. It's called "The Best of Eartha...

Musically speaking, I've always sort of thought of Whitney Houston as a big sister to Mariah--almost but not quite contemporaries and both determined young women with powerhouse voices. Mariah has had her setbacks, and though she is married again, and a mom now, she doesn't seem as at ease in her...

Her signature song now.

I'm remembering two things simultaneously about Whitney: the way her joyful "How Will I Know" could raise my spirits back in the day whenever I was down; and the moment on the Oprah show, around the time of the release of "Waiting to Exhale," when Oprah looked at her and...

@ttlms I read that somewhere too. She really bonded with the animal for the making of the film, and then to have to shove it out into the rain--well, you can't explain to a cat that it's nothing personal. For Audrey and Cat's sake I hope they only had to do that take once.

@Mandi7882 A pleasure; you're welcome! (And I mean that sincerely, Mandi7882--it's nice to have a YT debate that doesn't devolve into mindless nastiness) :-)

This is a COVER? He makes the song so completely his own--heartbreaking. Stunning.

Don't you love Mr. Brockoff's reaction to her? Like he understands he's part of some weird Halloween rite of passage for these kids and just goes along with it. :-) I saw this again last night and was again amazed at how much freedom to roam youngsters like 5 year old Tootie had--that would never...

Saw this movie on TCM last night and fell in love with Tootie all over again--that child was so adorable. Judy was the star of this wonderful family film but Margaret O'Brien was its beating heart, with her wildly vivid imagination and sweet spirit.

Whoa, love this song! Haven't heard it in years! I thoroughly enjoyed watching last night's "Soul Train" mini-marathon tribute to the late Don Cornelius, didn't you? The marathon began with the first "Soul Train" show, which included this song. I think the ST dancers were mostly doing the breakdo...

@kaiokken I'm afraid you're right about that.

Thanks for uploading this; it's the first time I've ever seen a full length doc about this particular crash, which always struck me as strange since it was such a major event. Any air crash is awful, of course, but something about PSA 182 has always haunted me. Maybe that ghastly photo of the pla...

@MrDjp415 Thanks! (Me, too!)

@debyok Thank you :-)

I'm looking through an enjoyable coffee table book about classic 60's album covers and there's Kathy Kirby, featured alongside the Stones, Lulu, the Zombies, Them with Van Morrison, and others on the "England's Greatest Hitmakers" cover. Kathy Kirby?? Who was she?? I search her on YouTube and pre...

@kittyscratchesboo Had to say it twice, eh? *chuckles* I posted here that I miss Paul Newman--I do--but also I meant I miss the era in which he and so many of his contemporaries lived and worked. The culture has changed, thus the entertainment industry has changed, and we have no modern-day count...

@chellycat14 This is a 1960 newsreel--in that era they always sounded like that, regardless of the event.

@CesMan83 Yeah, and Duvall particularly delivered those lines with such relish. I was almost--almost--sorry when Clint dispatched him near the end. I've also always found Wainwright's watchful reserve rather fascinating in this movie. He was a bad guy so we knew what his fate would be, but wouldn...
