  1. On August ninth, 1980, Doug and I had a celebration for the premier of the new soap opera "Texas," a spin-off from "Another World," meant to capitalize on the popularity of "Dallas." We loved "Iris," star Beverly McKinsey's character, but the show only lasted two and a half years. #soap #soaps #soapopera #soapoperas #vintagesoap #vintagesoaps #vintagesoapopera #vintagesoapoperas #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #1980s #twentiethcentury #anotherworld #texas #dallas #beverlymckinsey

  5. The latest version of AnalogTV analogtv.net now does full signal chain simulation of Apollo TV. This is not a "filter" or "shader" this is a full emulation of the signal.

  6. I used the 22-minute After School Special "THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASN'T" starring Judd Hirsch and Mariette Hartley as a classroom Halloween treat every year during my career, following its release in 1979. Kids loved it. #halloween #publicschool #publicschools #publicschoolteacher #teacher #teachers #schoolteaching #halloweenparty #halloweentreat #juddhirsch #mariettehartley #television #classictelevision #tv #classictv #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #1970s #prestigetelevision #teaching

  7. I'm starting a new fad for all fans of the 25-year-old soap opera, "PASSIONS." Every time arch-villain Alistair Crane (Alan Oppenheimer) appears 'hands only' from behind his leather chair, I raise my hands, and act the scene with him. Join us! Soon all the cool kids will be doing it. #soap #soaps #soapopera #occultsoap #occultsoaps #occultsoapopera #occultsoapoperas #tv #television #vintagetv #vintagetelevision #vintagetelevisionshows #classictv #classictelevision #alanoppenheimer

  8. Dal feuilleton al Louvre, dalla TV francese al monumento di Lodi: Belfagor è un fantasma che attraversa romanzi, sceneggiati e piazze italiane, lasciando sempre addosso la stessa, sottile inquietudine

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.
