Classic Television Thursday #005 – The Green Hornet: The Hornet and The Firefly (1966)

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Sep 18, 2014

Since I posted an some episodes of The Lone Ranger television show earlier this week in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the show’s star, Clayton Moore, I thought that for today’s feature I’d give you an episode of the Ranger’s descendant’s show, The read more

100 years ago today, Jack Carlton Moore was born in Chicago Illinois. Of course, today he is better known by his stage name, Clayton Moore. Mr. Moore made his first uncredited on-screen appearance in the B-Western Forlorn River in 1937. After a couple of other uncredited appearances, he received his read more

Saturday Morning Cartoons #004 – Duck Dodgers

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Sep 13, 2014

There are traditionalists who would howl at the very concept of the existence of this series. We all know how the choruses go: “This is nothing but a cash-in attempt by Warner Brothers!”, “They’re tarnishing my childhood memories!”, etc. etc. Let’s be honest, thou read more

Classic Television Thursday #004 – The Burns and Allen Show: Drivers License (1952)

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Sep 11, 2014

The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (otherwise known as The Burns and Allen Show) ran on CBS from 1950 to 1958. It starred the real-life married couple playing (as was often the case in shows like this) fictionalized versions of themselves.   Since I recently had to go down to the DMV to ren read more

Saturday Morning Cartoons #003 – Ruff and Reddy

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Sep 6, 2014

The Ruff & Reddy Show (Photo credit: Wikipedia) I’m not sure when I first encountered Ruff and Reddy. According to Wikipedia, the characters (and the shorts) were created in 1957, and The Ruff and Reddy Show was Hanna-Barbera’s first foray into producing animation for television. Ini read more

Classic Television Thursday #003 – Playhouse 90: Requiem For A Heavyweight (1956)

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Sep 6, 2014

(Yes, I know, this is a little late going up this week, but here it is, nonetheless.) Last week, in writing about the Twilight Zone episode “The Obsolete Man”, I stated about Rod Serling “[E]ven if the only thing he ever wrote was Requiem for a Heavyweight, he would still be worth read more

Saturday Morning Cartoons #002 – Tarzan, Lord Of The Jungle

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Aug 30, 2014

I’m gonna get out of the way pretty quickly this morning and just let you sit back and enjoy an episode of one of my childhood favorites: Tarzan, Lord of the Apes. The series was made by Filmation, and this episode is from the first season (1976). And to make it all even better, the original c read more

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Aug 28, 2014

I could easily do an entire series of entries that solely focused on the screenplays written by Rod Serling. Mr. Serling has long been considered one of the greatest-ever writers ffor television, and it is easy to see why. Even if one discounts the numerous scripts that he wrote for The Twilight Zon read more

Durnmoose Movie Musings Posted by Michael on Aug 23, 2014

Yep, it’s another line-up change here at DMM. I’ll admit, I’ve had a lot of fun doing the Saturday Double Feature, but much like OTR Thursday, it just seemed like it was time for a change. Back when I was growing up, Saturday mornings were a time when kids got to take over the hous read more

After spending quite a bit of time delving into what is known as the Golden Age of Radio, I finally decided it was time to take a break from that, which left this Thursday posting slot open.
