Sam Cooke and the Everly Brothers singing together on Shindig and Jack Kerouac on the Steve Allen Show...priceless!!

In every great play, film and dramatic performance The Ending underscores the level of excellence of that presentation. This post ended with Gumby. Making this one of the greatest posts of all!

Glad you enjoyed it, continentalgin.

Both the 20th and 21st Century shows were great. People watched and really learned about their world.

I must say that, after 9 great episodes in this series, I doubted they could be enough memorable tv shows left to do to a 10th episodes, but you proved me wrong Fred! The westerns are a favorite genre of mine and I was spoiled with so many good ones in this video. This being said, The Odd Couple wins my top favorite tv pick in the video. This was such a fun show with a very funny and talented cast. Thank you Fred for all the good work you've done for this very enjoyable series.

Much obliged, Ernest. Believe me, there's LOTS in store.

4:40 _The Bold Ones_ was an umbrella title for a varying number of shows produced by Universal Studios in the same time slot. These ending credits are actually from _The Bold Ones: The Lawyers_ that starred Burl Ives and ran from 1969-72. Other shows were _The Bold Ones: The New Doctors_ from 1969-73, _The Bold Ones: The Protectors_ that starred Leslie Nielsen (Yeah, *that* Leslie Nielsen) playing a conservative, tough as nails police Lieutenant from 1969-70 and _The Bold Ones: The Senator_ that starred Hal Holbrook and ran from 1969-1970.

As stated earlier, Ken, YT won't let me run all the ones I want. Then there's the problem of finding the themes. Plus there are some end themes that are exactly like the openings, so I've been reluctant to run many of those. Finally, some themes I simply don't like. Most of those are post-1980. Having said all that, there may indeed be another volume.

Very eclectic selection this time. Thanks, FredFlix. 📺

That was DAN AUGUST starring Burt Reynolds and Norman Fell. The show lasted for one season on ABC (1970 - 71). It later aired in repeats on CBS during the summer of 1973 and 75.The series was executive produced by Quinn Martin .

Thanks again, Fred! 0:12 - This is the only show that I recall using "was" instead of "as" connecting an actor to a character name. I guess these actors became these characters, at least for half an hour. 0:52 - Wow! The Everly Brothers with Sam Cooke. This had to be from fall 1964, as Sam died tragically that December. 13:52 - Ah, yes! Felix & Oscar on PASSWORD! Aristophenes anyone? 15:13 - I thought the HIGH CHAPPERRAL had a fantastic theme song. David Rose wrote it, along with themes for LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE and the great BONANZA theme for Seasons 12 & 13. I hope you can include that BONANZA theme on a future video.
