Haha, me too. Something about Pinky Pinkham in here flapper outfit. Plus I just liked the ambiance and setting of the show. That image of the car hurtling over the building is one of the indelible TV images of childhood.

As I recall, Dorothy got to play a character in this series, not just sing. I always liked her from the time I was a kid. This footage reminds me why. Thanks.

Miss Provine looking splendidly 60s in a period setting, as all the actresses and female singers did on TV and films in those days - but a charming performance nevertheless.

why hasn't someone posted "someone to watch over me" by Dorothy Provine? Isn't it available? Leo

I was in high school when this series was on. I never missed an episode. I always wanted to meet her.

Morganafan: I know it was in the early 60's. I was a little girl back then.

Come to think of it, I do remember it.

I was only a little girl back in the early 60's. I do have some memory of this show.
The Roaring 20's with a disco ball from the 70's. (That ball looks like a 70's disco ball.)

@nanlisa......"The Roaring 20's" TV series was filmed in the early 1960's.
The first mirror balls were introduced into nightclubs during the 1920s. As part of the general themes of the Roaring 20s, these balls were seen as a popular accent to performing artists such as dancers and musicians.
Throughout the 1930s and 40s, mirror balls were frequently seen in films as a representation of glamour and glitz. They accompanied the large-scale dance numbers seen in a number of movies of the era.
