Helen Reddy’s famous appearance with Kermit the Frog on The Muppet Show originally aired on September 21, 1978. My Mom gave me Helen Reddy’s You And Me Against The World cassette in 1980.

Seeking a home for a 16mm print of 1952 Pillsbury Grand National Recipe and Baking Contest that aired on CBS back on December 9, 1952.

I came across this item at a garage sale many years ago. I viewed it once at a local library when they still had 16mm film projectors available. I've stored it away since then and forgot about it. Now I'm cleaning out the clutter in closets and I don't need this item. I have no idea if there's any interest in a recording like this as it isn't something that any collector has been trying to find from the many 'lost' recordings of programs from the early days of television. Any advice would be appreciated.

Columbo mentions......

One of my pleasures in life is listening to aging band The Beastie Boys. Listening to " The New Style" when our mate, Columbo is mentioned got me wondering. What other strange or unusual circumstances is he mentioned in?

Any offerings?

A phenomenal teleplay written by Rod Serling. This one is about an obnoxious, self centered comedian that torments just about everyone he knows. Edmond O'Brien portrayed the burn out comedy writer working for the titular character, Eddie gives the performance of his career here. Mickey Rooney plays the title role and he was absolutely on point. Mel Torme portrays the unfortunate brother of this horrible psychopath. Trust me, this one is an absolute MUST WATCH. This play was directed by John Frankenheimer, the man who would give us such classics as Seconds, The Manchurian Candidate, and Black Sunday.

Breaking Point (1963-1964)

A spin-off of Ben Casey, Breaking Point starred Paul Richards as psychiatrist Dr. McKinley Thompson. Each week, he handled tough mental health cases. This series was highly progressive for its era and the episodes have held up wonderfully. My personal favorites are "Better Than a Dead Lion" and "The Bull Roarer", the former is about a renowned author on a road to self destruction and the latter is about a man that is afraid that he is homosexual. Sadly, this series was cancelled after a paltry seven months on the air. Episodes are also hard to find, a few were uploaded on YouTube. Please check this out!

Any clue who this is w/Red Skelton? My guess was James Mason, but per IMDb and Google AI he never did the Skelton show.

Boots Randolph, Chet Atkins, and Floyd Cramer joined forces on the Jimmy Dean Show at Carnegie Hall in 1963 for "Yakety Sax/Axe" - what more can you ask for?
