Did Hunter ever write about his experience on this show? Very interesting to see him before he became a counterculture icon.

Four years later, Hunter S. Thompson would write the book that made him famous the most: "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas".

The hell with Hunter. I’ll take Wendy Farrington! I’ve always thought “Hells Angels” was the best thing Thompson ever wrote.

I guessed correctly on Hunter Thompson because if you got beat up by the Angels, why would you still wear a biker jacket and remind yourself you got you arse kicked? Judge Cannon, I missed completely lol. Also, at the end where the judges meet the guests, Hunter is already lighting up. I guess having Camel/Marlboro as the show sponsor helps ;)

Yes it does, because this is a kinescopes version of a show origionally done in color. Not sure, but I think by '66 most shows were in color, and this is '67.
@libertubey21995 жыл бұрын
I recently began studying kinescopes. I am beginning to see the difference between kinescopes of b&w videotaped shows and those of color shows. The date of the program helps. This is a kinescope of an episode of TTTT that originally aired in color.

I, too, have noticed the difference. The same with the final color season of "What's My Line?" in 1966-67. The lighting looks different.

The 2nd game shows just how much society was changing. The subjects they talked about, the way they dressed, and all this talk about LSD. Completely different from what they talked about in the early years of the show. Far out, man, as the hippies would say.
@VahanNisanian7 жыл бұрын
Truth is, I'm more of a fan of the 1960's culture than I am of the 1950's culture. It's also a reason why my favorite episodes of "What's My Line?" were the 1960's ones. And just to clarify, I don't romanticize the likes of the Manson Family, just because I overall prefer the 60's to the 50's.

@Executive Decision The office of the U.S. Presidency has been in decline since Woodrow Wilson. It is only in the last nearly 30 years that it started taking a nosedive. I dare say that each U.S. President since Wilson has a part of "The Agenda" that he had to carry out. There are consequences to pay if the office holder begins to rebel. I will not go into details into neither "The Agenda" nor which U.S. President suffered consequences for rebelling. The current office holder is carrying out the part of "The Agenda" that he is suppose to carry out, just like (assuming you are of a certain age) his six predecessors before him had to carry out their part.

tomitstube So what are you trying to get out? Bud was a Christian, he comes across as a person who is happy and enjoys what he does. You have a problem with him? I agree that the Jesus freaks in the 60s and early 70s probably were not too bright. And some of them may have been stupid. They were hippies. Unlike the educated religious people on the other side of the church auditorium.
@UberLummox4 жыл бұрын
@@greydogmusic There sure were at least as many idiotic, dumb jesus freaks then, as now. Though I like what you say about Bud, your comments about '60s-'70s Jesus freaks and blaming them for being hippies is very short-sighted and judgmental. I'm not one of the "brave" keyboard warriors. I would have a conversation about this to you in person. Be Well ~
