Classic TV

I wasn't here yet for the real Davy Crockett craze,

Must admit I was around for the original Davy Crockett tv show.
I have a pic of me, somewhere, in my "coon skin cap" along with the official Davy Crockett mug and dinner plate.
If I can find it, I definitely will NOT post.

   My son lives in Northern Ontario, I think he has been up there too long.  He often wears a animal fur hat!   He wears moccasins and the whole bit - it is a good look if you can pull it off.

Did we mention Hazel yet?

I LOVE "Hazel" and Shirley Booth!  She won Emmys for the first two seasons!

I was re-watching this DVD (season 1) last weekend, in fact!  Seasons 1-4 are available on DVD and hopefully season 5 (the last one) will become available soon!

And speaking of Hazel, those of you who love the show and the superb Ms. Booth, watch this clip--it's hysterical!

Never missed an episode of this when I was a kid ! Later on when I learned that the guy who played Tonto was a real Native   American and his name was Jay Silverheels.....I was agog !!!


What was the intro ?? "With a fiery horse , the speed of light ..... something.....something and a hearty hi yo silver !" My memory fails me !!!!

Oh MY GOD!    Okay Les Mis is a my favourite musical of all time and I have never heard it described like that.   I haven't seen Hazel since I was a kid, it is so strange that it has always stuck in my head.  Now I know why, she is a riot.......and his face!!

Did Clayton Moore who plays the Lone Ranger.......ever do anything else.....or Jay Silverheels if it comes to that?. I could check it out on the net ....but it will give somebody else something to do !!!!!

Well, afterward, Clayton Moore made a career of appearing as the Long Ranger. Things got very nasty when the producers of the 1980 flop movie The Legend of the Lone Ranger got an injunction to stop him making appearances as TLR because, they said, they were afraid he would somehow damage their movie. 

I know of at least one episode from the first season of Daniel Boone where Jay Silverheels appeared as (what else?) an Indian chief.

Easy enough to look them both up at IMDb.

Do you have a PVR Jeff, they are great and only a few dollars a month, I tape everything!

A what? 

By now it must be well more than twenty years since I last recorded anything. Last time I recorded something, people still used videotape. 

No, I stopped recording stuff when I realized I was accumulating piles and piles of recordings and I never found the time to watch any of them.

I wonder if it was the same outfit that brought out a similar "official" Daniel Boone set? I've seen the Daniel Boone dinner set on eBay. It included a plate, a mug, and a bowl. The plate has a picture of Daniel and Mingo; I managed to buy one of those a few years ago. The bowl had a picture of Daniel in the center, and I'm not really sure about the mug. I've only seen one picture of the full set, and it appears that maybe Yadkin was on the mug.

Well I did too and then you were stuck with all those stupid VHS tapes.  This is great because they are stored on the TV, you record shows that are on at a time when you can't see them.  Or shows that are on when maybe you are watching something else, or you just don't have time to watch.

And if you get a bunch on there and you don't feel you will ever get to them.......you just hit delete!
