Huuh? I don't think it's nice, you laughin' at my themeless channel description. You see my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you'll just subscribe to Shatner Method, like I KNOW you're going to, I might convince him that you didn't mean it. <video> Colonel Klink Versus D-Day - Hogan's Heroes - 1967 Description: Just before the D-Day landings in Normandy, France, The Fuerher (Kinch) tells Klink by phone that he's looking for the most incompetent Colonel in the Third Reich to become his new commander of the German Army. The Kommandant can't lose ("Hogaaan!"). </video> <video> "Aloha. Aloha, Suckers": McGarrett's Biggest Bust - Hawaii Five-0 - 1971 Description: "What a scheme, what a fantastic warped genius scheme!" The original Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord) hauls in Buddy Ebsen and 150 crooks - and does it in style. </video> <video> Gomer Pyle Makes "Citizen's Arrest!" of Barney Fife - The Andy Griffith Show - 1963 Description: Mayberry's favourite gas station attendant calls out the Deputy for making a U-Turn. Barney: "He's just sore because I gave him a ticket for the same thing." </video> <video> When Louis Gossett, Jr. & Isaac Hayes Walked into a Nazi Bar - The Rockford Files - 1977 Description: Hayes and Gossett had a nice chemistry between them that comes in handy when they visit "The Crystal Palace": a bar that's not what they expected. </video> <video> "What's Happening to Television?" - 1966 (documentary) Description: Interviews with 22 network execs, journalists, mad men, writers, and critics, discussing the growth of television to this point in April 1966 when 35 million Americans watched three hours per day. In retrospect, '66 was an outstanding and creative year in TV popular culture but, as we see here (and as the documentary's title suggests), it wasn't necessarily viewed that way by contemporaries. Walter Cronkite's response to criticism of news coverage of the Vietnam War is also interesting. Apologies for the sometimes grainy B&W video but this is the only surviving version I could find of this program. Producer NET was the predecessor to PBS. </video> <video> Jimmy Carter Announces Support for Egypt - Israel Peace Initiative 11/30/1977 - CBS Evening News Description: Carter announces his full support for efforts to achieve a peace following Egyptian President Anwar Sadat's visit to Jerusalem and meeting with Israel's President Menachem Begin.

Report includes a visit with Sadat in Egypt who tells us that Carter is not just a Georgia farmer, or politician: "He is a statesman." https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2UrY2S1f-jsrMM47hvESB5R6K3kmeu4s </video> <video> Klink Cuts a Record with Hammelburg Quartet - Hogan's Heroes - 1970 Description: But the Heroes record a much bigger hit at a Luftwaffe strategy meeting.

"Murrow's Boys" and among the outstanding journalists of the twentieth century, Sevareid delivers his farewell commentary on the CBS Evening News. Eric Sevareid had "scooped the world" with the Fall of Paris in 1940, reported on The Battle of Britain, and joined Walter Cronkite with a commentary on the night of the assassination of JFK in 1962. During World War II he tells us: "We were like a young band of brothers in those early radio days" and calls Murrow "the man who invented me." Mr. Sevareid later passed away on July 9, 1992 at the age of 79. </video> <video> Remembering Bob "Mr. Baseball" Uecker - January 16, 2025 Description: "The biggest thrill a ballplayer can have is when your son takes after you. That happened when my Bobby was in his championship Little League game. He really showed me something. Struck out three times. Made an error that lost the game. Parents were throwing things at our car and swearing at us as we drove off. Gosh, I was proud." - Bob Uecker (Sr.) Bob passed away today at the age of 90. RIP, Mr. Uecker. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2UrY2S1f-jupwOBZpME-_xe5v2MPeXHP </video> <video> President Jimmy Carter Dies at 100 - 12/29/2024 - CBS News Special Report Description: Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2UrY2S1f-jsrMM47hvESB5R6K3kmeu4s We'll miss you, Jimmy!
