George Slv 25th Jun 2016		TV Perry Presents (1959)	Here's an episode from July 11 at the Internet Archive with Gloria DeHaven co-hosting. Added photo (kinescope capture). In later episodes Jaye P. Morgan was the female co-host. As for IMDB, research on this series is a work in progress, and the one person who created the IMDB entry does not have it all right. That's probably the person who posted at Internet Archive. Here's more information written at This Is My Story: "She and Tony Bennett were cast to co-host "Perry Presents" - a New York-based summer replacement show for the Perry Como Saturday night time slot - in the summer of 1959. Teresa only appeared for the first four weeks of the show. After her departure, other performers - Jaye P. Morgan, for instance - filled in for her." Teresa's last show was July 4. There were at least 13 shows.
George Slv 17th May 2016		TV Queen Of Swords (2000 - 2001)	Opening title on Youtube from XofHope, using French text "Tessa - À la Pointe de l'épée", in widescreen. [YouTube Video] You see she is a very seductive female. The low neckline helps. I have deduced after much cornsidermation that this is a false front as part of the costume. I thought the production was flawless.
George Slv 12th May 2016		TV The Hat Squad (1992 - 1993)	[YouTube Video] Youtube highlights from episode named "Ten".
George Slv 2nd Feb 2016		TV Thieves (2001)	Melissa George was the new babe on TV and we couldn't get enough of her. The series had enuf silly imperfections however that it did not last. They started filming in widescreen HD that season. First episode intro: [YouTube Video]
George Slv 1st Feb 2016		TV Mr. & Mrs. Smith (1996 - 1997)	I think it's all the same 23skidoo.
George Slv 23rd Jan 2016		TV Mr. & Mrs. Smith (1996 - 1997)	This was enjoyable, interesting and entertaining, with good stories. People wonder why it was cancelled. 13 shows were made, a typical half-season. Maria Bello was bella alright, and was able to move on to bigger things.
George Slv 20th Jan 2016		TV A Whole Scene Going (1966)	Could this be a video from this show? Any info?[YouTube Video]
George Slv 11th Jan 2016		TV Snader Telescriptions (1950 - 1952)	Video on the history of the project [YouTube Video]
George Slv 4th Jan 2016		TV Great Movies (1957 - 1970)	How many times did I see Humphrey Bogart in The African Queen, and the like, as a CBC movie in those days! The theme music from ~1960 was the instrumental Carnival (Manha de Carnaval) from the album by The Medallion Strings, from the 1959 film Black Orpheus. Hear the archive sample.
George Slv 10th Nov 2015		TV Clay Cole Sunday Show (1964 - 1968)	The color images here were stills from a home movie taken in the studio by one of the Del Satins members. I saved them from the now-defunct website of Clay Cole. I'm told that footage no longer exists. It doesn't mean the show was in color. It would have ended 1968 or earlier.
George Slv 10th Nov 2015		TV Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World (1999 - 2002)	The point is that none of da stuff was shown in any of the scenes with nude people. So the shows should not be rated "nudity". I've seen some hopelessly ridiculous ratings at times. Yeah, like a sex scene where they are under the covers, cause well after all, underneath the cover they are naked, right.
George Slv 8th Nov 2015		TV Peter Benchley's Amazon (1999 - 2000)	Episodes written by Peter Benchley. They had one big neat jungle set around Toronto. To me it didn't work. They just HAD TO update it for "political correctness" and chose one of the females as the leader. The male personalities were like out of 1980s rock culture. The natives were portrayed as witless savages, which is never really true.
George Slv 8th Nov 2015		TV Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World (1999 - 2002)	This was a super series. By the last season the Canadian co-producer (Alliance-Atlantis) had closed business. It was filmed in Australia and used many mystical themes. I saw what could be called "nudity" in many episodes in Canada, except that it was not nudity. Nude people in the scene does not constitute nudity in the film if you don't show da stuff.
George Slv 28th Oct 2015		TV The Honeymooners (1955 - 1956)	As a boy of 9-10 I commented to some friends in Winnipeg that the show had kind of a downer effect because of how Gleason was always arguing. Next season they tell me it was not renewed because of this. It was a hard situation to take for Jackie and everyone.
George Slv 24th Oct 2015		TV Clay Cole Sunday Show (1964 - 1968)	From the defunct website of Clay Cole, this text about when the Sunday show started - ~November 1964. "The Clay Cole Sunday Show November 4, 1964 The Clay Cole Show celebrated a first anniversary on Channel 11 by becoming their hottest property, their number one show. Rather than offer me a new contract, more money or a bonus, I was given a second hour show with additional duties. So the Clay Cole Sunday Show was created with a cast of fresh, young singers Tracey Dey, Angela Martin, Benny Thomas, Brian McCuen and the Del Satins."
George Slv 18th Oct 2015		TV The Clay Cole Show (1959 - 1968)	Rare footage with someone probably named Dallas Houston. [YouTube Video] YT from Rocketryman. Go read the comments there. Apparently this was a Saturday night show.
George Slv 18th Oct 2015		TV Clay Cole Sunday Show (1964 - 1968)	That's right Harley. There just one piece of footage on Youtube involving a singer named Dallas. Check whether that's the weekday show.
George Slv 21st Sep 2015		TV Summertime U.S.A. (1953)	Image from Teresa Brewer Center (under Celebrity Photo Collection).
George Slv 8th Sep 2015		TV Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall (1948 - 1955)	An early 15 minute version of the show, prior to the one hour starting in 1955. Episodes labelled Public Domain can be found at Loving The Classics. I don't know if they include any 1-hour shows. I'd be interested if they did.
George Slv 3rd Sep 2015		TV Perry Como Show (1955 - 1963)	This is another series that can be purchased at Retro Video by video professionals. See the list of stars involved, including Brenda Lee, Teresa Brewer, Everly Brothers. You can research the episodes at tv.com. This is one more example of where I need someone with professional pull to get some. I can pay for these. I'm looking for Teresa Brewer. Has anyone seen the collector DVD sets?
George Slv 1st Sep 2015		TV Saturday Night Wrestling	The reference I read about it being filmed in Buffalo may be correct. If it ended in 1959 so be it.
George Slv 1st Sep 2015		TV Saturday Night Wrestling	Probably produced in Toronto. Canadian wrestling stars like Whipper Billy Watson, Gene Kiniski, Hard-Boiled Haggerty. There were also midgets, and native Indian wrestlers like Little Beaver. In fact I got to know him while living in Toronto in 1982.
George Slv 29th Aug 2015		TV Summertime U.S.A. (1953)	Notes from JaneFromanShow_USACanteen: "Summer Time U.S.A." premieres with Teresa Brewer, Mel Torme and The Honeydreamers. It aired Tuesdays and Thursdays 7:45-8:00 PM after the network news. spotlight_torme: Mel Torme returned to prime-time TV in the summer of 1953 as co-host of another music series, Summertime U.S.A., with Teresa Brewer.
George Slv 29th Aug 2015		TV The Jimmy Dean Show (1963 - 1966)	Added second title image, from a Youtube video of this specific series, so it's more likely correct. 23skidoo, did you mean to say the 1st one "looks more like something from the 50s THAN the mid-60s"?
George Slv 2nd Aug 2015		TV Stampede Wrestling (1957 - 1989)	Now what was that wrestling show shown Saturday evenings in Canada late 50s on CBC? I believe based in Buffalo. Whipper Billy Watson, Hard-Boiled Haggerty, etc.
George Slv 28th Jul 2015		TV Stingray [USA] (1985 - 1987)	Show sample, from GSMovieMoments [YouTube Video]
George Slv 28th May 2015		TV The Jimmy Dean Show (1963 - 1966)	The title was taken from the retrovideo page that is selling this very series.
George Slv 28th May 2015		TV The Jimmy Dean Show (1963 - 1966)	This series can be purchased as archival footage by video producers at retrovideo. I have not been able to get access. I would wish for the two episodes where Teresa Brewer appeared. See the list of show episodes at tv.com.. If anyone gets somewhere with this let me know.
George Slv 26th May 2015		TV Perry Presents (1959)	NBC network. Teresa appeared only on the early shows. Later there were weekly fill-in hosts.
