Olympic swimming champion Buster Crabbe kept fans on the edges of their seats each week in 1938 as "Flash Gordon."

i love this ad for MUNSINGWEARS MEN'S UNDERWEAR . . according to the copy:
"Stretchy-seat" is a Munsingwear exclusive. It is a special horizontal panel knitted to give up and down. No other underwear has "stretchy seat." Men find it so comfortable they keep coming back for more. That's good business. "Stretchy-seat' is an exclusive feature of Munsingwear's Skit-Trunks, Longies and Shin-highs."

Frances Farmer, known around her home town as the “bad girl of West Seattle” for her spirited, headstrong and magnetic personality, was the stunningly beautiful actress of stage and screen whose all-too-brief career lit up Hollywood and Broadway in the ’30s and ’40s. Appearing like a comet out of the Pacific Northwest to make her film debut in 1936 in TOO MANY PARENTS, during the next six years she appeared in 18 films, three Broadway plays, thirty major radio shows and seven stock company productions – all by the age of 27. She was soon being compared to Greta Garbo...

It was September 16, 1952, and American audiences were sitting in their seats at the neighborhood theaters, watching these two for the very first time. Anything with the brand name Acme would never be thought of in the same way again.

Lava's clip from My Fair Lady reminded me of the night in 1977, when I took my mom to see Yul Brynner live in The King and I at the Miami Beach Theatre of the Performing Arts. We were fortunate enough to have great seats a couple of rows behind the orchestra, and had a perfect view of the stage. I'd seen Yul Brynner hundreds of times on the screen, but never in person. He was magnificent! Such a handsome man, and his stage presence just blew me away, my mom was in heaven as well! Mrs Anna Leonowens was played by Constance Towers, who years later played Helena Cassadine in General Hospital. After the play, when the audience was leaving, we ran back to where the stage door was on the side of the building just in time to see him get into his Limousine. As it drove right by us I could see him and I waved like crazy, and he waved back with that wonderful handsome smile! I'll never forget that as long as I live.

Up the ancient stairs, behind the locked door, something lives, something evil, from which no one has ever returned!! I first read the book, written by Robert Marasco, and then the film came out in 1976. The book scared the bejesus out of me, the film gave me goose bumps. Add to that the fact that I had a huge crush on Oliver Reed at the time and this became one of my top three favorite horror films. Without a doubt, one of the scariest movies that I have ever seen. This scene with the undertaker and coffin coming up the stairs will give you nightmares, and the final scene in the attic will throw you out of your seat. Which was scariest? The book definitely, because you have to rely on your imagination.
It starred Oliver Reed, Karen Black, Lee Montgomery, Bette
Davis, Burgess Meredith, Eileen Hechart, and Dub Taylor.

It's 1955, you and your family are all seated around your brand new twelve inch color TV. Mom made snacks, which are sitting on top of TV trays, (all the rage). This is a momentous occasion. Tonight, you will witness a magical event, a live broadcast of Peter Pan, straight from Broadway. It has music, adventure and best of all it's in color thanks to the NBC peacock. The production also starred Cyril Ritchard as Hook, and Sondra Lee as Tiger Lily with Lynn Fontanne.
