@tomservo56954 when rod serling won the emmy award for requiem for a heavy weight he said i would like to thank jack pal-lance when jack was on the tonight show he said its palance not pal-lance

@spacepatrolman "The Time Element" was the original concept, in a one-hour version. "Where Is Everybody" was the pilot for the half-hour formant, and "The Lonely" was the first episode filmed when it got the series pickup.

Kellogg's was the "alternate sponsor" with Liggett & Myers during the season, 'tom'. Carter-Wallace was probably an "alternate"-alternate sponsor during the summer, replacing Kellogg's (in the fall of '60, they co-sponsored "THE GARLUND TOUCH", which replaced "HOTEL DE PAREE"...which gave way to Jackie Gleason's infamous "YOU'RE IN THE PICTURE").

@fromthesidelines jack did annoncing for an iggy stooge concert where he put peanut butter on his chest and hid himself in the head with a hammer

@tomservo56954 the way i understand it the time element was an early rod serling drama but not the twilight zone the first regular episode was the lonely with jack warden desi was probably too drunk to get it right

[tomservo56954]

Was Kellogg's the alternate sponsor before or after Carter-Wallace (Arrid, Nair)?

We can keep the TWILIGHT ZONE connection going with the director of this episode, Ida Lupino. She is the only person to act in an episode of the show ("The Sixteen-Millimeter Shrine") and direct one ("The Masks").

@spacepatrolman Earl Holliman starred in the first half-hour episode, "Where Is Everybody" (THE TWILIGHT ZONE aired Fridays at 10 PM ET--90 minutes after PAREE).

The true "pilot" was "The Time Element" episode of DESILU PLAYHOUSE, starring William Bendix and Martin Balsam.

Oh, yes- Jack Lescoulie (best known for his appearances on "THE TODAY SHOW", and the original announcer on "THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW") is L&M's spokesman...
