American citizens are always delighted whenever they turn on their television sets to catch an episode of an old show. Currently there are two stations which air classic tv sitcoms. Atenna TV and METV seem to be going very well at this point in time. Years ago English citizens knew that they could watch the fabulous program "Are You Being Served?" whenever it was on television.
"Are You Being Served?" was introduced back in the early 70's and people really took a liking to this unusual program. Each individual around enjoyed seeing the different colors that Mrs. Slocombe would wear her hair each week. This was an odd character who never failed to make every single person within the audience laugh. Molly Sugden was able to play this key person through the entire run of the series. She and the other cast members had such grace and style.
On the other hand Mrs. Bucket was one character that many people would run away from. Her neighbors were always sick and tired of her bad attitude and superiority complex. "Keeping Up Appearances" was indeed a stylish program which lasted quite a few years. Hyacinth's husband did not like his wife's behavior at all and during many of the episodes he tried to distance himself from her. Her sister Daisy loved Hyacinth very much and she was always trying to gain her approval.
CBS was very lucky to put on a show called "The Beverly Hillbillies" during the 1960's. Granny was a little old lady who enjoyed making moonshine and fighting with the banker's wife. Ellie Mae was a character straight out of Li'l Abner and she was indeed a blonde bombshell.
Granny had a grandson named Jethro and he was a pitiful creature. He was a big good looking man who did not display good common sense. Sometimes Jethro would get himself into the most dangerous situations and his uncle would have to save his life. The people living on an island during the 1960's also needed saving.
Even though "Gilligan's Island" only lasted for only three years it was still a popular show. Many women watched this series to view the very intelligent man called the professor. He was a charming fellow who could solve almost any problem. Unfortunately the professor could not get the other castaways off the island. Ginger, Mary Ann, the Skipper and the Howells were also part of this group.
Ralph Kramden was a good man who enjoyed his lovely wife and their friendly neighbors. Ralph was portrayed by the charismatic actor known as Jackie Gleason. "The Honeymooners" proved to be Jackie's biggest hit series and he really liked acting with the other cast members.
During the 1960's there was also a family of five living in New York City. They were all on a program called "Family Affair." The major player on this series was a man named Bill and he shared an apartment with Sissy, Jody, Buffy and Mr. French. At times Mr. French seemed a bit jealous of the children since he wanted to live a childless life. As the series went on this great man from England became a second father figure to the three small tykes.
