My husband, Zack, will be hanging out with "Mystery Science Theater 3000" stars Jonah Ray and Emily Marsh all weekend at The Mahoning Drive In Theater in Lehighton. He is sharing his books, and running the Crow and Servo photo op for this MST3K Weekend! #mst3k #mysterysciencetheater3000 #mysterysciencetheater #television #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #jonahray #emilymarsh #outerspace #scifi #sciencefiction #fan #fans #fandom #wetheriffed #books #bookpublishing

My friends and I have made movies most our lives. "LEWISTOWN WIVES" was a sexy and shocking miniseries based on the Jackie Collins novel "Hollywood Wives." Sadly, we never filmed it. 1984. #miniseries #sexyminiseries #sexy #sexsells #jackiecollins #joancollins #glamor #glamour #glamorous #hollywood #1980s #twentiethcentury #tv #television #classictv #classictelevision #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #sexnovel #sexnovels #sexynovel #sexynovels #homemovies #makingmovies #amateurmovie

I enjoyed Dorothy Killgallen and the rest of the gang on "What's my Line?" as a child, and have rediscovered this charming game show in my senior years. #whatsmyline #gameshow #gameshows #tvgameshow #tvgameshows #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #JohnDaly #ArleneFrancis #DorothyKilgallen #BennettCerf #panelists #masks #questions #mystery #mysterious #walksoflife #history #entertainment #news #sports #twentiethcentury #nyc

A surreal Season 2 episode of "PETTICOAT JUNCTION" featured hotelier and professional gas-lighter Kate (Bea Benaderet) as a devilish train conductor in villainous Mr. Bledsoe's nightmare. Brava! #petticoatjunction #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #sitcom #television #tv #trains

Final Illustration from "Wrecked In Space," a book I wrote in childhood. 1960s. #childhood #book #books #picturebook #picturebooks #childhoodcreativity #creativity #pencil #pencils #coloredpencils #sketch #sketching #writing #lostinspace #vintagetelevision #vintagetv

As a child, I was fascinated by the three young women. Now, the comedic delivery of Edgar Buchanan is the highlight of the show for me. #petticoatjunction #edgarbuchanan #shadyrest #paulhenning #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #classictv #classictelevision #ruralcomedy #rural

Some episode reviews from season 2 of Perry Mason, a series that raised the bar in terms of complex plotting in 1950s U.S. TV and demonstrated the potential of the hour-long episodic TV drama. And that terrific cast! Always fun to revisit.

Johnny Staccato (1959) a stylish gritty jazz-fuelled film noir-inflected PI TV series with John Cassavetes as a piano player/private eye. Similar to Peter Gunn but better - more neurotic, edgy and noirish.

Hi-Jack, an episode of the 1950-51 Dick Tracy TV series. I'm a bit of a Dick Tracy fan and the series did star Ralph Byrd, the definitive screen Dick Tracy. Alas the plot is too conventional and it all looks a bit stodgy. A curiosity more than anything else.

Rod Serling's The Sixteen-Millimetre Shrine, one of my favourite Twilight Zone episodes (1959). A faded movie star (played superbly by Ida Lupino) lives in the past, the past when she was a star.

A wonderful bitter-sweet story. With a terrific twist ending which was copied by a certain well-known film director some years later.
