77 Sunset Strip. Ed Kookie Burns (Kookie Kookie, lend me your comb etc.)
Working on Cricket...
Star known on show as Cricket was also a recording artist.
Blonde, blue eyed - also appeared in a movie that had a tobacco farm for a setting.
And the TV show was Hawaiian Eye.
Hawaiian Eye was one of those shows I"ve heard about , but never got a chance to see.
Which radio show had its origins on The Rudy Vallee Show and The Kate Smith Show. (Hint: a situation comedy).
Based on Clifford Goldsmith play, What a Life.
Also made it to television.
Does the name Ezra Stone ring a bell?
The show began with his mother calling his name. He would respond, "Coming Mother."
It was not The Life of Riley.
Jimmy Lydon and Jackie Cooper starred as the teenage lead in movies.
"Coming Mother" has to be Henry Aldrich.
"HEEEN-REEE! Henry Aldrich!"
"Coming, Mother!"
What tv show's theme song was adapted from "Funeral March of a Marionette" by Charles Gounod
Good question. I doubt anyone will have the answer.
Alfred Hitchcock Presents ?
I used to watch the re-runs like mad.
Whooee! I've watched the reruns infinitum, but never knew about the theme. My favorite episode involves Bruce Dern, Pat Butram - Dern's a drifter hired to pick fruit.
