I agree I liked him too

The Munsters 1964-66

Lily Munster: "Herman tried to build a ship inside a bottle. We had to break the bottle to get him out."

Trivia Billy Mumy was the original choice for Eddie Munster, but his parents didn't approve of the extensive makeup that would be used for his character.

Joan Marshall was replaced as Lily, as it was thought that she looked too much like Carolyn Jones as Morticia Addams.

Star Trek 1966-69

Capt. Kirk: "Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its 5-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before."

Scotty: "On Earth, we have a saying: Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
Chekov: "I know this saying. It was invented in Russia."


Trivia Contrary to popular belief, neither Captain Kirk nor anyone else ever said, "Beam me up, Scotty," in any episode.

In the hallways of the Enterprise there are tubes marked "GNDN", these initials stand for "goes nowhere does nothing".

In several episodes, prop beverage bottles were modified from existing alcohol bottles. Aldeberan Whiskey bottles were Cuervo Gold 1800 Tequila bottles. Bottles used for Saurian Brandy were George Dickel Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey carafes.

Trivia Contrary to popular belief, neither Captain Kirk nor anyone else ever said, "Beam me up, Scotty," in any episode.

are you sure about that? i'm pretty sure kirk said it more than once...

Though it has become irrevocably associated with the series and movies, the exact phrase was never actually spoken in any Star Trek television episode or film. Captain Kirk comes closest to saying the phrase when he said "Beam me up, Mr. Scott" in the Star Trek IV movie. In the Original Series episodes "The Gamesters of Triskelion" and "The Savage Curtain", Kirk said, "Scotty, beam us up"; in the animated episodes "The Lorelei Signal" and "The Infinite Vulcan", when he said, "Beam us up, Scotty"; in Star Trek IV, saying, "Scotty, beam me up"; and in Star Trek Generations, by saying, "Beam them out of there, Scotty". The phrase was used on a bumper sticker with the tag line "Beam me up Scotty. There's no intelligent life down here."

The Outer Limits 1963-65

A great science fiction themed anthology series.

"There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We can reduce the focus to a soft blur, or sharpen it to crystal clarity. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits."

Trivia The original title for "The Outer Limits" was "Please Stand By". But, America was facing the Cuban Missile Crisis and the executives thought it might make people fearful of an air raid. This is why, in the new series when the show would cut to a commercial, the Control Voice said, "Please stand by." A tip-of-the-hat to the original series title.

Bewitched 1964-72

Trivia The show had an unusual amount of roles played by more than one person: two Darrins, two Gladys Kravitzes, two Louise Tates, two of Darrin's father. Dick York left the show in 1969 due to health problems; his role of Darrin was taken over by Dick Sargent. When Alice Pearce died, her role of Mrs. Kravitz was taken over by Sandra Gould.

The show's now-famous animated opening credits were created by Hanna-Barbera Productions.

In the episode "Hippie, Hippie, Hooray", we see Larry and Louise Tate in their kitchen. It's the same set used as Tony Nelson's kitchen from "I Dream of Jeannie" (1965). The Bewitched house can be seen down the street from Jeannie's house in many outdoor scenes and that house (exteroir and interior) doubles as the residence of fellow NASA coworker Doctor Bellows.

The Monkees 1966-68

Peter: "Oh no, foot prints! Someone else is on this island!"
Micky: "Oh don't worry, those are ours, we don't have a larger set so we had to use the same one twice."

Trivia Among those who auditioned to be members of The Monkees were Paul Williams (who later wrote "Someday Man" for the group) and Stephen Stills, who was almost cast but pulled out when he learned Columbia Pictures would demand the publishing rights to his songs. It was Stills who suggested his then-roommate, Peter Tork, audition for the group, and Tork was cast.

Songwriter Harry Nilsson also tried out for the Monkees but was rejected. Nilsson would later write the song "Cuddly Toy", which was covered by the group.

Danny Hutton, later of Three Dog Night, auditioned at the original tryouts but was turned down.

The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet 1952-66

Trivia Until it was surpassed by "The Simpsons" in 2004, this was the longest running comedy series in American television history.

The Nelsons' house shown in exterior shots on the show is actually the Nelson family's real home in the Hollywood hills above Hollywood Boulevard.

Green Acres 1965-71

Mr. Kimball: "Tomatoes are the dumbest of all plants. Did you know their IQ is hardly above what a 6-year old child's is?"


Lisa Douglas: "Are you happy with the corns I strung for you?"
Oliver Douglas: "Lisa, you're supposed to take the kernels off the cob and string them."
Lisa Douglas: "Well, don't blame me, I never did it before. In the old country, we used to string caviar."
Oliver Douglas: "Caviar?'
Lisa Douglas: "We'd have caviar on one string and crackers on the other..'.
Oliver Douglas: "Oh, for..."
Lisa Douglas: "And then we'd play the Hungarian Christmas game called 'Smear the crackers with caviar.'"

Trivia Adapted from the radio show, "Granby's Green Acres", which was on the air around 1950.

Although according to legend the pig that played Arnold was eaten by the cast and crew, Tom Lester has said that he just said it one time as a joke.

The Many Loves Of Dobie Gillis 1959-63

Dobie Gillis: "Good stuff, Maynard!"

Trivia What did the middle initial in Maynard G. Krebbs, stand for? In one episode, and one only, someone asked this question, Maynard stated that the "G" stood for Walter. His explanation was that his mother "didn't spell too good".

The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis was a major influence on the characters for another successful CBS program, the Saturday morning cartoon Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!. Scooby writer Mark Evanier noted that "Fred was based on Dobie, Shaggy on Maynard, Velma on Zelda and Daphne on Thalia."

The series is based on the 1953 film- The Affairs of Dobie Gillis.

The Abbott and Costello Show 1952-53

Bud Abbott: Just mark down, "Dear druggist".
Lou Costello: "Dear druggist"... Go ahead.
Bud Abbott: Here's what you want. You want seven milligrams of sulfursilic monosetic acid diluted in seven micrograms of tincturized chlorophyll. Have you got that?
Lou Costello: All but one part.
Bud Abbott: What part?
Lou Costello: The part that comes after "Dear druggist".


Trivia During filming, one camera was always kept on Lou Costello because he was constantly improvising. The funniest bits of business were then edited into the episode whether they had anything to do with the storyline or not.
