Yeah, right, Charlie! Take a picture of Jennifer showing off "the girls" and you want us to believe you're looking at the colors?

Damn, Sam looks good in those pix. How about this shot of Alice (Audrey Meadows). They really glamored her down for that role.

I for one like her no nonsense attitude, just what that BLABBERMOUTH Ralphie boy needed!

I just bought a video of the lunar landing from 1967, with Walter Cronkite. It's the actual newscast from CBS, with a minimum of commentary. I would say it's the best thing I've sen yet to watch on a roundie!

That is, once I get the picture on mine looking good

...Don't fergit Ginger & Mary Ann, fellow maniacs. Or the gal that played "Batgirl" & that green bi-ach on "Star Trek" once. Audrey Meadows initially lost the part of "Alice",'cos Gleason thought she was TOO pretty. She went home, put on a frumpy housedress-what women wore around the house B4 there were sweats & scrubs- & came back. She re-auditoned, & Gleason didn't even recognise her, & hired her. Baby, you're the greatest !! -Sandy G.

P.S. The later Superman episodes were color and should look great on a roundie too.

Saw a part of a PBS show about women singers from the 50's. They showed footage (B&W) of some TV show appearences of them. IIRC singers like Diana Shore, Doris Day and others like them. And yes, the corners of the images had little of interest (except the new PBS "bug").

Walter Cronkite is perfectly appropriate on a Predicta, roundie, or any set. Let's not forget Chet Huntley, David Brinkley, Frank McGee, Howard K. Smith, and many others from that era.The "Laramie" NBC Peacock opening they used for TODAY would look great, especially on an RCA (and I happen to have one).

Roundies are great, and That's the way it is.

Good Night AK and good night for NBC News.

Even though he was never broadcast in color (AFAIK) I think Ernie Kovacs would be ideal to watch on any older set. He was the father of the electronic sight gag and a true innovator of early TV.

I'd also like to see any old episodes of the Today show with Dave Garroway, one of his sons was a best friend of mine when I was a kid and I spent many an enjoyable time at his place.....sadly I've never seen him when he was on that show.
