    OK, so here's a show that just came to mind. In a sense, it probably doesn't belong here since the title of the thread is "Obscure Classic TV Shows - Post Your Favorites!" is this can't be a favorite as I've never seen it, but really want to. I was reminded of it when popping into a thread...

    No, it wasn't a personal conjecture. It was something I picked up from this or that. Generally comments by some of the people who appeared in the show. I don't have a link, but for example, I recall somewhere seeing Jamie Farr talking about how Kieser would cajole people into working on the show...

    Been trying to catch up on three weeks worth of postings (Real Life has a habit of getting in the way of things). I maybe have missed mentions of the following. Arrest and Trial (1963), a show that I think of every time something from the Law & Order franchise rears its head. It had the same...

    I remember The New People, though I only saw a few episodes at the time. The fact that it was in a 45-minute time slot (back to back with a 45-minute rock music program; Hullabaloo or Where the Action Is or something along those lines) was probably its most notable feature. It was also created...

    Unless I'm mistaken, The Burns and Allen Show was the first show to do the "breaking-the-fourth-wall" schtick, at least on a regular basis. Not just with George talking directly to the audience, but with bits like him wanting to see what Gracie was up to, so he turns on his TV and watches her...

    Probably best known for the episode "The Bounty Hunter" with Steve McQueen, which served as a pilot for Wanted--Dead or Alive.

    The series has never been released on DVD, but there was a "fix-up" movie of the first four episodes that was released on DVD as part of Fox's War Classics imprint.

    Obscure Classic TV Shows - Post Your Favorites!

    This was a very memorable show (well, episode) for me. It haunted me for decades. I'm not sure how I would have managed to see it when it was first broadcast -- I would've been 7½ at the time -- but it might've been that my parents let me stay up late that night and I happened to see it. Then...
