Another off-the-wall act from that bastion of culture and good taste called The Gong Show...Miss Peggy Guy from 1976. (As Chuck Barris once quipped, I liked it, but I like faulty plumbing.)

Jerry & Sylvia Anderson created this kids show, way back in 1960's and in my opinion, were way ahead of the times. As a kid watching these I used to get annoyed that they were in colour and we only had black & white. Not a thing you see every day SUPERMARIONATION makes you wonder if a certain plumber got his title here? You'll tell me, I know you will and watch out for those strings. Call for International Rescue.

From 1972, teenage heartthrob Donny Osmond performs 'Too Young' on Here's Lucy. He's singing it to...Eve Plumb of The Brady Bunch? In this episode Eve plays an ill girl whose desire is to meet Donny Osmond. Lucy arranges it, somehow. Of course Donny instead falls for Lucy's daughter, Kim (Lucy Arnaz). Geez, how did I miss this one when it first aired?

Like most African-American performers of his generation, comic actor Dudley Dickerson played more than his fair share of Pullman porters, bell-boys, waiters, and shoe-shine boys. But from the late '30s until the mid-'50s, Dickerson was the most prominent black actor working in two-reel comedies. Contracted by Columbia's short subject department, the roly-poly supporting comic brought a refreshing energy to his portrayals of, yes, Pullman porters, shoe-shine boys, and the always demeaning "frightened Negro domestic." Closer in type to Mantan Moreland than Stepin Fetchit, Dickerson was especially good opposite Charley Chase in His Bridal Fright (1940) and the Three Stooges in A-Plumbing We Will Go (1940). Dickerson played a Pullman porter once again in his final film The Alligator People (1959), after which he concentrated on television work. The veteran comic died of cerebral thrombosis.
