Oh ok thats a good bit of trivia right there.

Who did the voice of Gumby?
Who did the voice of Howdy Doody?

Gumby - in the 50's the voice was Art Clokey or something like that.

Howdy Doody - Duh! Cowboy Bob!

Prunepicker - Claribel! Some think it's Cary Grant, since we're identical look a
likes.

Yeah, him's dead though....Hmmmmm

Okay, get ready for some remarkable TV Trivia.

Put your thinking caps on.

What was that show that had the girl who looked like somebody in another
show that only lasted a couple of weeks before they were interrupted by
a better show that stunk to the skies.

One of the cast members was a friend of a postman in Kelso, ND. He had
this lady on his route, that was between Kelso and Grandin, who would
bake him cookies. She had a sister, uglier than anyone who's ever shown
up at one of our south side meetings, that could bake cookies like nobody's
business. Well, as fate would have it, she baked a batch and forgot to put
in the flour. It was a mess. Her brother, who happend to call by long
distance every other year, told her that a neighbor had bursitis in her hip.
She knew all the remedies for bursitis, because her mom had passed them
down. She had learned them from a clerk who was a bookkeepper at a Ben
Franklin in Dubuque. Her brother in law drove a milk truck. Sometimes the
dairy would have specials, like yogurt or cheese and sometimes, college
cheese. Not that crap you get now but really good cultured college cheese.
I was told that it came from a Dutch family that move to New Hampshire
after the turn of the century. Not the 2001 century but the 1900 century.
Goodness, that's over 100 years ago.

Whoa, the phone is ringing, I'll get back to the question later.

Only very few people know that Lucille McGillacutty was J. Edgar Hoover in drag. Ben Hur was Richard Nixon..............Those weren't dread locks but rather mating horseflies....need I go on?

Count Gregore
$100,000 Name that tune
some of you guys may remember the KAUT channel 43 dance show that was on in the early 80's.

Anyone else remember the Marty Feldman Comedy Hour? I loved it since it was all comedy. Had some animation shorts but most were situational comedy. I liked Laugh In for the same reason.
12 O'clock High?
F Troop
Car 54 Where Are You
My Mother the Car
Truth or Consequences
The Fifth Dimension (Chanel 9 Saturday Nights)
5 had a horror movie on Sunday afternoon but I can't remember the name of the program. Help me out.

I am going to add one that were movie shorts before my time but their films were on t.v. as a Saturday and Sunday program. Laurel and Hardy!! Those guys still bring tears to my eyes. I hated the Three Stooges. No comparison to Laurel and Hardy.

Here are some cartoons Mighty Mouse , Heckel and Jeckel ,Bugs Bunny. Then other kid shows there was Soupy Sales,The Three Stooges ,Flash Gordon, Zorro and The lone Ranger

you know, Laurel and Hardy was the reason there was a Group called the Three Stooges....But, the real masters were the Marx Brothers.....I can still remember the Bowery boys and the original Little Rascals....Petey the dog was my hero....So much as my dog today looks like him....And then there was Darla....The true Siren of the big screen...She kept all the guys wondering....

That was Mystery Theater and it came on at 5pm.

I agree about the Marx Brothers. During the '70's there were a few movie theaters in town who on Friday and Saturday nights would show serials, "Flash Gordon...................followed by a '30's comedy: Marx Brothers, W.C. Fields.....................what a great time.
The reason I mention Laural and Hardy is because t.v. introduced many of us to their films. I just did not think the Stooges were funny.

Man, I loved the Stooges! The Marx Brothers were zany! There's a short
they're in that is complete pandemonium. It starts with one guy at a desk
and someone comes in and it gets crazy, then another and another. It's gets
so far out of control and there must be a dozen people doing comedy routines
at the same time. Does anyone know what it was called? I don't.

I can watch Laurel and Hardy even if their overdubbed in Bulgarian. They
still make me laugh. I watched them do their own lines in Spanish and
didn't realize it until about 1/2 way through the movie.

I remember a Marx Brothers film that had a scene like that. Only it was a room on a steam ship. Finally got so crowded when the door was opened people poured into the hall.

I once read about Laural and Hardy doing their film work. They would do 2 or 3 in English and then film again in Spanish.

I remember a Marx Brothers film that had a scene like that. Only it was a
room on a steam ship. Finally got so crowded when the door was opened
people poured into the hall.

That was "A Night at the Opera". I don't think this was from a movie. It's
about 10 minutes of pandemonium.

Know what bums me out about Elvis Presley's death? The next day Groucho died.

That was Mystery Theater and it came on at 5pm.

By the time I was watching it, I think it came on at 4:00. "Regular" network Sunday programming started at 6:00 then, I think.

Yee Haw "Twinkles" welcome to the house of zanyness.....Whatever...Where are you from????

I don't like being mooned by a dog... or cat... or weasel...

everything I say creates a supposition, I'm going to turn them off any way.

Thank you for your support.

I'm going to go back to my 'toast on a stick'. See ya'll later.

what can I say? Without you and soonergirl there's no one to pick on...

And don't you ever forget it!

... Man, I gotta get back to the front yard...

Dude, you can ask soonergirls best friend, darlin' darla, I'll do whatever
Prunette tells me to do, except yard work. I can't stand yard work.

Yes, Prunette has me mow the lawn and disc the garden, but Prune don't pull
weeds!. The kindness ends there. I hate yard work. Prunette loves it. I'll
do whatever she tells me to do EXCEPT yard work. Those are the rulz!

What has this got to do with Old Television Shows and Trivia?

Did I hear someone say NOTHING!

It ties in to Green Acres Prune.
Your the city boy from Cali, she moves to the farm in Okie.
The lead singer of the California raisins (prunette) marries the back guy with the sax, (prune) and they retire on the farm where Prune hates weeds, Back in Cali we had a gardener to do that.
Gen 64 would be Eb or better yet Mr. Drucker since he worked at TG&Y.
ECO and I are Ralph and Alph she's ralph. PapaOU is Mr Kimball the county agent (we not really an agent...)

Mr. Drucker??? man, I don't know if that was aslam or a step up the old ladder for me. Uh, Pruner could I sell you a Weed Eater...you know, a speckled goat...got it from the newbie (Twinkles) for just a few dollars...Guaranteed to do the work of seven men all at once....Huh? what do you think???

PapaOU is Mr Kimball the county agent (we not really an agent...)

Yeah! I'm sorry. What was that?

Mr. Kimball: Tomatoes are the dumbest of all plants. Did you know their IQ is hardly above what a 6-year old child's is?


Mr. Kimball (Alvy Moore) was in the movie "The Wild One" with Brando and Lee Marvin.

I did not pick Mr. Haney.
I only came up with the Green Acres theme so we could stay on topic in this thread.
We need a pig for Arnold Ziffel, any thoughts?

That makes some sense. How'd you get this info? Are you an FBI agent?

I was thinking that Sam Drucker was a manager at TG&Y. You ain't no Eb.
Neither is Eb.

Is ECO good looking? Most lawyers are overweight and grim. Real grim.

I've seen papaOU. Never mind!

You know her Avatar is of the Universe....Of Course she is good looking...You know, I've NEVER seen and ugly woman....Just some better looking that others....Gotta be nice, she's a lawyer guys.........then again the Cal;ifornia Dude is dangerous also...Huh Native????

Prune,
On the FBI Payroll? No.
California dudes well that is another story, remember I am only here because of Work. I am a Native Okie.
Tried to tie this in to Gunsmoke. East Coast is Miss Kitty, Gen 64 Doc? or matt, who is Festus? I am the guest kid that Dillon sets on the right path in the end.
Oh well.

I refuse to answer on the grounds it might incriminate me.

Not really on topic here but with its views and interest this thread seemed like a good place to ask this. I'm trying to find several good "mystery" or "murder mystery" movies with a comedy twist. Something along the lines of Deathtrap or Clue, slueth (the original) or the Pink Panther series. I Love the Agatha Christie series too and you cant beat Helen Hayes either. The older and more classic the better. Any suggestions??? Thanks

Arsenic and Old Lace. Absolutely great! The reference to Raymond Massey
about him looking like Boris Karloff is because Karloff played his part on stage.

Cary Grant! We're look-a-likes

"Keeping Mum"! Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) plays a vicar with a very disfunctional family. Patrick Swazey is a golf pro always on the make.
