Shawna Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Seems to me that Room 222 and Love American Style ran back to back in the evening... I used to love watching Brady Bunch, then Monkees, then Partridge Family back to back. Those were the days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I watched those same exact shows Shawna!! Friday nights, I would always make sure I was home to see them. And David Cassidy was the one, I always bought Tigerbeat magazine and his picture was plastered all over my walls, until I found my love for hard rock and roll at about 12 1/2 and then Zeppelin and Floyd covered my walls.

Jimmy1104 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Shawna and Jane....I too was sitting in front of the TV set on Friday evenings as a kid watching the Bradys and the Partridges. If I am not mistaken wasn't there also some Disney show in that mix? I do not recall the Monkees on Fridays though. Just aa couple of months ago I purchased the first season of the Partridge Family. It is still in it's shrink wrap but I do plan to watch them soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Jane 61 Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Jimmy...that is so cool! I watched the Partridge Family when it was on MTV a few years back. Remember that? I need the DVD collection. I also want to get The Mod Squad, I think that was on Friday nights also, but not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Anyone here old enough to remember the wonderfully hokey Pinky Lee? He spoke with something of a lisp. Very wet speech. Pinky had to have been a huge influence on Pee Wee Herman. As I recall, this was actually a week-day afternoon variety program. This guy danced and bounced around the stage and promoted himself shamelessly. I watched it daily though. LOL! Pinky and Lily Chrysanthemum (Betty Jane Howarth) The Pinky Lee Show Synopsis "Yoo hoo! It's me!" This zany, half-hour children's variety show left such an indelible impression on its young audience that its after effects still resonate in much of today's modern programming. Pinky Lee, a brash, uninhibited performer, clicked with the kids by bringing a frenzied circus clown type of slapstick to daytime TV, the likes of which had not been seen before. The show was set in the Happy Town Circus, and featured a checkered-suited Pinky clowning his way through comedy sketches, songs, dance numbers, and special features like "Game Time." The latter segment, which featured bizarre and unusual competitions, was a clear forerunner to the wacky children's game shows that populated Nickelodeon in later decades. But Pinky's most obvious heir apparent was Pee-Wee Herman, whose 1980's Pee-Wee's Playhouse was heavily influenced by The Pinky Lee Show. Perhaps the most famous incident on The Pinky Lee Show occurred in 1955, when Pinky clutched his throat, shouted, "Somebody help me!," and passed out. The press reported a heart attack, but it turned out to be a sinus condition. In the end, it was not poor health that did Pinky in, but rising powerhouse The Mickey Mouse Club, which debuted near the end of 1955 and soon eclipsed Pinky's show.

Sweet Jane 61 Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Anyone remember the TV show Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea?? It was a fun show...Richard Basehart and David Hedison starring.

bazooka Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Anyone here old enough to remember the wonderfully hokey Pinky Lee? Just barely. My Dad sold televisions when I was a toddler, so I can't remember ever not having TV. Some of the earliest shows I remember are Winky Dink ( primitive interactive entertainment - I wonder how many kids caught hell for coloring on the tube without benefit of the approved overlay) and the puppet show version of Beany and Cecil .
