Le Manège enchanté (known in English as The Magic Roundabout) was a children's television programme created in France in 1963 by Serge Danot. Some five hundred five-minute-long episodes were made and were originally broadcast between 1964 and 1971 on ORTF.
However, it was in the United Kingdom that the series became best known. The English version was narrated by Eric Thompson, the father of Emma Thompson, and broadcast from 18 October 1965 to January 1977. This version of the show attained cult status, and was watched as much by adults for its dry humour as by the children for whom it was intended.

Sherbet in the United Kingdom is a kind of fizzy powder made from bicarbonate of soda, tartaric acid, sugar etc and usually cream soda or fruit flavoured. The acid-carbonate reaction occurs upon presence of moisture (juice/saliva). It used to be stirred into various beverages to make effervescing drinks, in a similar way to making lemonade from lemonade powders. Today, people usually buy carbonated drinks rather than making them at home.
Sherbet is now used to mean this powder sold as a sweet. In the United States, it would be somewhat comparable to the powder in Pixy Stix or Lik-M-Aid/Fun Dip, though having the fizzy quality of Pop Rocks effervescing candy.

Disney's anthology series that had it's start in 1955 and has been revived more than once over the years, until 2005.
The scenes and the music will surely take you back in time. Shows like this, and Wild Kingdom left positive impressions on most of us.

This highly successful series ran from 1991-1999. This clip centered around Tim and Mark working on the dishwasher, with the usual disastrous results. Mark was the youngest son of three and always believed what his brothers told him (for example, that the whole family but him were aliens and that he was not Tim and Jill's natural son), until Jill explained it to him.
At the beginning, Mark was portrayed as slightly naive and in constant admiration of his father, but with age came wisdom to see the truth lol

Who would have thought this sitcom would be the catalyst that would help rocket Tom Hanks into superstardom? It was a funny show, after their own apartment building was demolished, Kip Wilson (Tom Hanks) and Henry Desmond (Peter Scolari) had to pose as females in order to live in the all female Susan B. Anthony Hotel because of the dirt cheap rent. There were several fine performances by Donna Dixon, Wendie Jo Sperber, Holland Taylor, Lucille Benson and Telma Hopkins of Tony Orlando and Dawn fame. This reminded me of Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis in Some Like It Hot.

The USAF was previously part of the United States Army, until it was changed to a separate branch of the military on September 18, 1947. Here's a tribute to the men and women in the Air Force, as well as others, who risk their lives for us every day. God Bless them all. The music is entitled Wings of Freedom.
