Well, I'll just say I'm in my 40's. You guys should be careful about personal information online. But I also enjoy classic TV. I Dream of Genie is my favorite but mostly because of Barbara Eden. I remember this from Nick at Night. They cleverly reinvented the rerun. Now there's a whole channel about it. It was a cute little show. It's charming but it doesn't beat you over the head with it like The Andy Griffith Show.

For Bronx geography buffs - Pause the video at 18:09 and you'll have a view of The Bronx River Houses as seen from the just west of the Boston Road overpass on the Cross Bronx Expressway. Its one of the few outdoor locations not shown behind the credits or filmed within a few blocks of the studio. The speeder chase that starts at 18:40 is heading westbound with the Southern Blvd. and Marmion Ave. overpasses in view.

It seems he carried it on in Car 54 which ran from 1961 to 1963. In fact when I see Car 54 now I always think he is playing Ritzik still. The characters seem very similar. Take a look at the old Bilko episodes as he is great in that too.

Expect about half an hour drive, barring traffic (couldn’t say that with a straight face). And it’s in either the 33rd, on the north, or the 34th, on the south, depending to which approach they are referring.

@kevinwachs59052 жыл бұрын
Not exactly. Mr Peabody was voiced by Bill Scott. Scott also voiced Bullwinkle J Moose and Dudley Dooright. For Peabody Scott was imitating Clifton Webb as Mr Belvedere. Bill Scott was not a professional actor. He was an animated cartoonist. He ended up in the story department at Warner Brothers. When the studio purged the fourth unit led by director Art Davis, Scott, one of Davis's story men, went to UPA. Scott later teamed up with Jay Ward, who had produced the first animated cartoons made for television, Crusader Rabbit. Together they conceived what would become The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle. Scott's Bullwinkle voice was founded on one of Red Skelton's characters.

As I am trying to write I have to make an analysis. This is Watson and Watson. Then comes trouble. It shows up here and there. That's Albert Camus. Tumbledry the "trouble/problem" Have it moving through situations and characters. This way the story can end when the trouble has been examplified enough times. Or exhausted. As we become familiar with the problem/trouble we can anticipate it and look for it in advance. We sprinkle with comedy and friendship. We can all see the opportunity to advance in our career. Others can see it as well. That's why I like this show.
