Ah, telephemera… those shows whose stay with us was tantalisingly brief, snatched away before their time, and sometimes with good cause. They hit the schedules alongside established shows, hoping for a long run, but it’s not always to be, and for every Street Hawk there’s two Manimals. But here at STARBURST we celebrate their existence and mourn their departure, drilling down into the new season’s entertainment with equal opportunities square eyes… these are The Telephemera Years!

1967-68

Is it 1967 or 1867, because cowboy dramas still have a big hold on US TV this year, with Bonanza and Gunsmoke joined by The High Chapparal, as well as a slew of lesser successful, rightfully forgotten shows. Andy Griffith and Lucille Ball, of course, were still riding high at the top of the TV charts, with this being The Andy Griffith Show‘s swansong season, but there were sitcoms and variety hours galore to make America laugh while its sons died in a foreign war fought purely over political ideology.

It wasn’t just a dark time for anyone with a relative in Vietnam, there was also tragedy for superhero and sci-fi fans as Batman, The Invaders, Lost in Space, The Man from UNCLE, and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea also reached the end of their runs, along with The Monkees (although Head was still waiting, tantalisingly, in November 1968). Never mind, Gentle Ben and Ironside arrived to alleviate the gloom, as well as a whole load of other shows that didn’t stick around in the popular memory. At least they made it to air, though – this is the story of those that didn’t…

Island of the Lost (ABC): Producer Ivan Tors – responsible for Flipper, Daktari, and (more apt for this magazine’s interests) Science Fiction Theatre – turned his hand to the lost island trope with this 1967 pilot, starring Richard Greene. British actor Greene, who had made his name in the title role of the ITV series The Adventures of Robin Hood, returned to the US for the role despite some reservations after an unhappy time there in the 1940s and 1950s.

He was exactly the square-jawed lead Tors needed for the role of anthropologist Josh Macrae, shipwrecked on a remote Pacific Island with his family and discovering that prehistoric creatures have somehow survived there. Lining up alongside him were Sheilah Wells and newcomer Robin Mattson as daughters Sharon and Lizzie, and Flipper’s chief dolphin-botherer Luke Halpin as son Stu.

The dinosaurs and other extinct animals that populated the island – alongside some headhunters straight out of central casting, naturally – were mostly of the “stick some spikes and stuff on a crocodile” variety but there are appropriate amounts of peril, at least for the family audience Tors clearly aimed his shows at.

ABC declined to pick the show up for series and the pilot was re-edited for release as a theatrical feature, complete with an escape by raft to tie things up. Tors still had Daktari on the air at the time and so can’t have been too concerned, although that was followed by a slew of failed pilots and aborted projects, with only Salty – basically Flipper with a seal – getting any traction. That was still better than Halpin, who drifted from small role to bit part, eventually ending up in stunt work and marine film consultancy, but who now lives happily in retirement in Florida.

Mad, Mad Scientist (NBC): It’s fair to say that, after The Munsters ended in 1966, Fred Gwynne was typecast. Playing a seven-foot-tall Frankenstein’s Monster will do that for an actor, even one with as considerable a comic talent as Gwynne, and he struggled for decent roles in both film and television. Luckily, Ed Haas and Norm Liebmann – scripters for The Munsters, Get Smart!, and others – had an idea for a new show, one which would be perfect for Gwynne’s comedic range.

In The Mad, Mad Scientist, Gwynne played Warren Springer, a chemist for a paint company who can’t help but retreat to his home laboratory to concoct strange potions. Bridget Hanley – soon to be cast in Civil War logging comedy Here Come the Brides, alongside David Soul – was his suffering wife Bonnie, with experienced child actor (and future voice of Lucy in the Peanuts animated films) Pamelyn Ferdin as daughter Sally.

A pilot was shot that saw Gwynne’s mad scientist turn housekeeper Phoebe to liquid, among other mishaps, but NBC passed on taking the show to series. It sat on a shelf for almost two years before being aired as special under the title Guess What I Did Today?  in September 1968, when it garnered decent reviews but nothing near those needed to resurrect a long-dead project.

After the failure of the pilot, Gwynne mostly opted out of Hollywood for a while, instead touring with regional theatre companies and indulging his love of musical acting, although he would occasionally do a TV or film project, including a TV remake of the Ealing comedy Arsenic and Old Lace (albeit playing a role made famous by Boris Karloff…). He had a long run in CBS Radio Mystery Hour and was primed for a mainstream comeback with Punky Brewster in 1984 until the director called him Herman one time too many.

Out of the Blue (CBS): 3^rd Rock from the Sun was a massive hit for the husband-and-wife team of Bonnie and Terry Turner, running for five seasons from September 1996 and featuring the misadventures of a quartet of aliens masquerading as an Ohio family in order to learn about human beheaviour. Almost thirty years earlier, Bewitched creator Sol Saks came up with almost exactly that premise, proving that both there are no new ideas in Hollywood and that timing is everything…

Out of the Blue starred Shirley Jones and Carl Ballantine as members of an alien spearhead sent to investigate whether Earth was suitable for colonisation by their planet. Taken in by a kindly Professor, the pilot episode saw them encounter strange Earth customs and reveal quirks of their own society, such as the glamourous Jones being considered unattractive on their home planet and the paralysing effect that alcohol had on their species.

Veteran Sherman Marks was brought in to helm the pilot, with a cast that also included It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World’s Marvin Kaplan and future singing Pontius Pilate Barry Dennen, ending with a shot of the aliens driving away with an “unattractive” Earth woman and one of their kind – stiff as a board – in a trailer hitched to their car. Sadly (or not?), that was the last anyone saw of the extra-terrestrials, and even then only when it was aired as part of CBS’s pilot burn-off series Premiere in the Summer of 1968.

Dick Tracy (NBC): Having revolutionised Batman with his hokey, sound-effect laden TV spectacular, William Dozier had an eye on what came next. His Greenaway Productions had already brought Green Hornet – similarly tongue in cheek and starring a young Bruce Lee – to screen, but needed more shows to keep the TV monster well fed. First planning a Wonder Woman show, which got as far as a screen test for Ellie Wood Walker as the titular heroine, the producer instead turned his attentions to a live-action Dick Tracey show, figuring the detective’s rogue’s gallery – which had been building since the newspaper strip’s inception in 1931 – to be every bit the match for those of the Caped Crusader.

Chester Gould’s creation had enjoyed film serials and feature films in the 1940s and 1950s, and even got a TV show of its own in 1950, ending when star Ralph Byrd died in 1952. In early press for the new show, Dozier explained that Dick Tracey had topped a list of cartoons to turn into TV shows even before he started work on Batman, and a newspaper appeal for suggestions to play the title role saw The Chicago Tribune swamped with replies. Victor Mature a clean fan-favourite for the role but the job was given to relative unknown Ray MacDonnell, with production beginning on a pilot in October 1966.

The pilot film saw Tracey got toe-to-toe with the dastardly Mr Memory (Victor Buono), who planned to derail a NATO conference, and was played fairly straight, although it used the trademark Greenaway technicolour palette. Completed in November, it was under consideration as a mid-season replacement for that season but when NBC announced their new line-up, Dick Tracey was absent.

Still, the real goal was a Fall 1967 debut, and the show was included on a list of hopefuls by Broadcasting magazine, but declining ratings for both Batman and The Green Hornet on ABC may have played a part when it failed to make the cut for the NBC line-up released in April 1967. By the turn of the decade, Greenaway Productions was wound up and Dozier went into semi-retirement, making occasional guest appearances on shows such as Love, American Style and Marcus Welby MD. Warren Beatty, of course, gained the rights to Dick Tracey in 1985, delivering a so-so movie in 1990 and holding onto the rights ever since without attempting any further TV or film treatments.

Return of the Original Yellow Tornado (NBC): Having debuted a year earlier to rave reviews and great ratings, Batman was the show everyone was seeking to copy for the 1967 season. CBS had Mr Terrific as a mid-season replacement in January 1967, starring Stephen Strimpell as a mild-mannered gas attendant turned superhero, and NBC offered up Captain Nice, which starred William Daniels as a mild-mannered police chemist turned superhero, but both shows failed to attract much of an audience and were not considered for renewal.

Perhaps the problem was that these were young superheroes, certainly something that The Return of the Original Yellow Tornado could not be accused of. Starring Mickey Rooney as the eponymous retired superhero, and Eddie Mayehoff as his equally ageing sidekick Dickie Boy, the pilot for the proposed series saw them brought back after years of peace by the return of Rooney’s old arch-enemy.

Created by Jack Laird, the script was written by George Bazler, Hal Goldman, and Al Gordon, a trio of funny men who came together on The Jack Benny Program in the early 1950s and had written the original treatment for Mr Terrific. It was planned that Eileen Wesson’s character – introduced as Dickie Boy’s “Gal Friday” – would eventually develop a costumed identity of her own and secretly solve the crimes the elder statesmen could not.

The pilot for The Return of the Original Yellow Tornado had actually been shot before both Captain Nice and Mr Terrific, and languished in their disappointing wake. NBC passed on picking it up, although they did order some reshoots and redubbing in order that the footage be turned into a feature film, but these eventually came to nothing. Thirty years later, however, an ageing super-agent was brought back to deal with the return of his arch-nemesis after years of peace, but that was less superpowers and more Austin Powers…

With Tim Burton remakes grabbing headlines, we thought it would be a great idea to revisit one of his all-time classics: Mars Attacks! This is a science fiction masterpiece that has stood the test of time. Here, we will tell you some of the things you may not have known about Mars Attacks! and some of the ways fans have expanded their passion for the film.

Tim Burton in the News

Tim Burton is one of the biggest names in science fiction and fantasy film. He has also recently expanded into the world of streaming series. Netflix is now streaming Wednesday, which is not a homage to the middle of the week, but rather a spin-off to a beloved and quirky dynasty: The Addams Family.

 

Tim Burton is also coming out with another addition to a beloved classic. In the year 2024, we are expecting Beetlejuice 2. The original Beetlejuice came out in the 1980s and was a huge success. It grossed more than $70 million in 1988.

 

Beetlejuice 2 will feature such big stars as Michael Kheaton, Winona Ryder, and Jenna Ortega. It is scheduled to be released on September 6, 2024, by Warner Bros. Pictures. Filming has not yet begun, so the overall details are still thin. For example, we do know that Danny Elfman will be returning to compose the soundtrack for the film.

 

These big and contemporary releases, fans are reconnecting with other blockbusters from Burton’s canon.

 

Expand Your Passion

Fans of Mars Attacks! are finding new ways to connect to this thriller. The Vegas setting is central to the movie, as aliens terrorize casino patrons, dressed up as Pharaohs or just enjoying themselves as players.

 

One way people are bringing this movie to life is to enjoy free spins at online casinos. There are plenty of online casinos that give out free spins without any deposit required. These promotions are normally limited geographically, with these in particular being available in Canada. Connect with the movie’s Vegas setting and check out the best free spins by category, including Best Overall, Best for Low Wagering, and Best for Number of Spins.

Other fans have been donning Mars Attacks! costumes. The most popular one is a long, red, shimmery robe with the large green alien head and a laser pistol. Another common option is the lady alien with the red dress with a mermaid cut. This character was reportedly based on Marilyn Monroe.

Things You May Not Have Known About Mars Attacks!

There are many surprises that even huge fans of the movie may not know. Here are some of the best trivia to pull out at the next party you attend.

It was based on a card game

Originally, Mars Attacks! emerged as a series of trading cards in 1962, depicting the invasion of Earth by a corrupt Martian government. These cards gained immense popularity among children. However, due to complaints from concerned parents about the graphic content, Topps, the creators, had to halt production.

It ended up being smaller than originally planned

The movie adaptation of Mars Attacks! faced a significant setback when Warner Bros. limited their budget to $60 million, despite the initial plan estimating it at $260 million. As a result, scenes portraying the Martians’ attacks on the Far East, Europe, and Africa were removed to reduce costs. The invasion was confined to only three major cities instead.

They actually destroyed a hotel

In the scene where the Martians destroy the Galaxy Hotel, the filmmakers incorporated actual footage of the building’s implosion.

Back in 1995, the Landmark Hotel and Casino, a renowned establishment that once welcomed iconic figures like Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra, was demolished in Nevada. This is definitely going the extra mile when it comes to bringing the movie to life!

Two actors were also in Independence Day

Actor Rance Howard and voice artist Frank Welker accomplished a remarkable feat by appearing in two significant alien invasion movies during the same year.

Rance Howard portrayed a Texan investor in Mars Attacks! and also portrayed a chaplain in Independence Day. On the other hand, Frank Welker provided his voice talent to bring aliens to life in both films.

 

Ah, telephemera… those shows whose stay with us was tantalisingly brief, snatched away before their time, and sometimes with good cause. They hit the schedules alongside established shows, hoping for a long run, but it’s not always to be, and for every Street Hawk there’s two Manimals.

1967-68

Is it 1967 or 1867, because cowboy dramas still have a big hold on US TV this year, with Bonanza and Gunsmoke joined by The High Chapparal, as well as a slew of lesser successful, rightfully-forgotten shows. Andy Griffith and Lucille Ball, of course, were still riding high at the top of the TV charts, with this being The Andy Griffith Show‘s swansong season, but there were sitcoms and variety hours galore to make America laugh while its sons died in a foreign war fought purely over political ideology.

It wasn’t just a dark time for anyone with a relative in Vietnam, there was also tragedy for superhero and sci-fi fans as Batman, The Invaders, Lost in Space, The Man from UNCLE, and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea also reached the end of their runs, along with The Monkees (although Head was still waiting, tantalisingly, in November 1968). Never mind, Gentle Ben and Ironside arrived to alleviate the gloom, as well as a whole load of other shows that didn’t stick around in the popular memory. This is the story of more shows from 1967 that failed to capture the public imagination…

Cowboy in Africa (ABC): As the US struggled to define its place in the post-war world, it reached back to the glory days of manifest destiny, elevating the Western to an art form that dominated TV schedules for most the 1950s and 1960s. While more straightforward approaches such as Gunsmoke and Bonanza were obviously popular, there were occasionally efforts to do something a little bit different with the genre and that’s how Cowboy in Africa came to ABC in September 1967.

Set in the modern day, but every bit as rugged as the adventures of the Cartwrights, Cowboy in Africa starred Chuck Connors as Jim Sinclair, an expert ranch hand hired by stiff Englishman Wing Commander Hayes (Ronald Howard) to modernise the operation of his colonial ranch in Kenya. With Sinclair is his constant companion, a Navajo named John Henry (played by the non-Navajo Tom Nardini), and their group is completed by the end of the first episode as Sinclair is adopted by ten-year-old local boy Samson as his surrogate father.

Cowboy in Africa had its roots in a pilot produced a year earlier, starring Hugh O’Brien as Sinclair and John Mills as Hayes, which was released instead as a theatrical feature under the title Africa Texas Style. Ivan Tors – who had already brought the likes of Flipper, Daktari, and Gentle Ben to TV – tweaked Andy White’s script to give it enough life to springboard a series, casting former baseball and basketball star Connors, who he’d used in the Flipper movie as his star. Connors had spent five years as Lucas McCain in The Rifleman and was becoming typecast but was, at least, an experienced hand at this sort of thing.

The show was filmed in Los Angeles, but expert animal handler Ralph Helfer was on hand to ensure Sinclair encountered his fair share of exotic wildlife and former child star Marshall Thompson shot second unit footage in Mozambique, as he had done for Daktari (in which he also starred). Still, even all this wasn’t enough to see off Gunsmoke and The Monkees in its timeslot, and the twenty-sixth episode would be the last, replaced for the 1968-69 season by the final season of The Avengers.

Dundee and the Culhane (CBS): John Mills may not have reprised his role as Wing Commander Hayes when Cowboy in Africa came to TV, but he was present as another attempt to do a twist on the Western made its bow in September 1967. Mills was the Dundee in Dundee and the Culhane, one of a pair of lawyers in the Old West. Alongside him was Sean Garrison as The Culhane, a young Irish American legal eagle.

The show was greenlit on the strength of its pilot, “The Turn the Other Cheek Brief” (each episode was titled the something Brief), but as production continued the network started to lose faith in the show, concerned by the quality of subsequent scripts despite creator Sam Rolfe’s best efforts to mix the Western and legal genres.

Still, CBS were hopeful that Dundee and the Culhane would find its audience, scheduling it at ten o’clock on Wednesday nights opposite the The ABC Wednesday Night Movie and a fading Run for Your Life on NBC. Viewers, though, seemed to agree with the network’s conclusion and stayed away in their droves, despite the obvious attractions of Mills, Garrison and guest stars including Charles Bronson, John Barrymore, and Warren Oates.

After just two episodes had aired, CBS cancelled the show, airing the other eleven completed episodes before replacing it with The Jonathan Winters Show, a variety showcase that played host to early performances by the likes of The Doors, Peaches and Herb, and The Strawberry Alarm Clock. Rolfe – who had earlier enjoyed success with Have Gun, Will Travel and The Man from UNCLE – took time to recover from the failure but eventually returned with an adaptation of Donald Hamilton’s Matt Helm, leaving the Old West safely back in the 1960s where it belonged.

The Second Hundred Years (ABC): A man out of time has always been a popular idea, as far back as Washington Irving’s Rip van Winkle in 1819. With that in mind, crediting Father Knows Best veteran Roswell Rogers with the “idea” for The Second Hundred Years may well be the greatest grift known to man. Still, that’s what the credits say, although surely Ed Simmons, a joke writer for Jerry Lewis and others, bears the lion’s share of responsibility for this sitcom yarn about a prospector from 1900 who is thawed out after sixty-seven years under ice.

Monte Markham played Luke Carpenter, the hapless gold hunter who left his family one day, seemingly never to return. In 1967, however, he finds his son Edwin now has a song of his own – thirty-three-year-old Ken, who in a clever piece of casting is also played by Markham. Initially bewildered and confused by changes he can barely understand, Luke must learn to live in this new world with his son as his guide.

Sworn to secrecy by the military men that had revived him, lest word of his miraculous survival spark a scientific arms race, Luke finds that he is often better at adapting to modern life than stick in the mud Edwin. During the course of the show’s twenty-six-episode run, he meets an old girlfriend, locks his boss at the bank in the vault, falls in love with a hippy, frees a go-go dancer from a cage, and engages in as many swapping hijinks with Ken as you could shake an old stick at.

Critics were not kind ahead of the show’s premiere in September 1967 but it initially garnered strong ratings. These soon fell away, however, and by October The Second Hundred Years was in the bottom twenty-five shows airing in prime time. Still, the network had faith enough to keep plugging away, hopeful that a better lead-in than the moribund Custer might help ratings. The decline continued, however, and even a move to Thursday to fill the slot vacated by Batman didn’t help, a decision made in March 1968 that there would be no second season for The Second Hundred Years.

NASL (CBS): It’s tempting to think of the US as a football backwater. Proper football, that is, rather than the handsy version they claim as their own. However, during the 1920s, the American Soccer League was one of the highest payers in the world, attracting players from Europe and South America to the extent that FIFA threatened to declare them outlaws if they didn’t stop “stealing” players. After that, the US game became a purely amateur affair, at least until TV audiences for the 1966 World Cup showed a resurgent interest in the game.

Reacting to an apparent desire to see top class football by American fans, two rival leagues sprung up for the 1967 season, only one of which – the United Soccer Association – had official backing. Realising that they were two bald men fighting over a comb, a decision was made to merge the leagues into one, the North American Soccer League, inheriting the CBS TV deal negotiated by the other league – the National Professional Soccer League – before the merger.

Although it was nothing compared to the razzamatazz that the mid-1970s would bring, this was the beginning of football as a major sport in the US. Seventeen teams, from New York and Washington DC in the east to Los Angeles and Oakland in the west, played for the honour of becoming the first truly national champions in the US for almost forty years, with an Atlanta Chiefs team backed by English club Aston Villa picking up the honours after a play-off final.

CBS showed thirty-two live games on Sunday afternoons during the season, culminating in that play-off final, but ratings were poor even for weekend afternoons and the sight of almost empty stadiums did nothing to help the image of the league. At the end of the 1968 season, all seventeen teams had lost money, resulting in twelve clubs folding and CBS ending the TV deal. It would be 1974 before they came back on board, just in time to welcome Brazilian legend Pele to the New York Cosmos, the league’s glamour side, sparking a six-year spell at the very top of American sports. After that, things fell away again until the arrival of Major League Soccer in 1996, but that’s a story for another day…
