The Dog Song was performed in On an Island with You by Xavier Cougat and Betty Reilly?

That's it. Your turn.

That's the one. I read somewhere Cary Grant was going to play Tony Wendes...they felt it would be wrong for him to plan to murder his wife...you're up

Correct gummball. It was short with his Royal Canadians , I got lazy! Your turn.

Hint: The gossip column headline reads "Queen Mary Arrives Today". The scene moves briefly to the dock. she now shares a kiss with someone else.

I'll help this along, flash had the show correct with Perry Mason. The episode from '59 featured a famous actress known for her "screaming". ?

My 1st instinct was Fiesta. It Does have Ricardo Montalban but I can't find any English lyrics other than the Mexican Hat Dance. I'll guess Mex Hat Dance with ?? Cyd Charisse?

Not Mike Hammer, this was a 60 min series in black and white.

Hm..that was a stretch, but very good. You have Paul Revere and the Raiders featuring Mark Lindsay. Now, A #1 hit for Mary Welles My ____ baseball player, manager of the Braves ____ Harris French actress Brigette _____.

Red Skelton performing The Carnie's Pitch in Texas Carnival music by Harry Warren?

The Quick and the Dead

A tv series, a long running series for whodunnit fans.

You're in the right time frame, wrong film. Her husband has a letter in his possession that is linked to the gossip item.

An episode in a whodunnit from the late 50s featured a sleazy detective questioning an aging movie star whether she gave birth to a daughter and gave her up for adoption. His client's wife claims to be that daughter. A classic film star guests as the actress (who winds up dead).

A retired sports figure and his wife share a kiss over the morning paper at the breakfast table. A particular item in the gossip column catches the wife's eye. The news item means trouble for her.

Wilford Brimley

No guesses? Hint: It's sad that those whose home was the root of the name Hollywood weren't so lucky on film...masacred by the thousands in film after film until the late 40s.

Is it Damn Yankees, Jean Stapleton being the sitcom star?

What a store of knowledge there is if we look! Good with the extra credit as well. Yours Muddy.

Okay, I got my book out: A musical from the '70s featured a song that harkened back to a Hollywood film of '34. A famous duo was contracted by MGM and came up with song, covered by just about everyone: Billie Holiday, Mel Torme, Bob Dylan and Beady Eye, even Elvis. The musical went to film in the late '70s. What was the song title, musical and film?? Extra credit for naming the film of '34.

You have the common thread with one exception, Walter Connnolly did't win an Oscar. It Happened One Night was the 1st film to take the five top honors: Frank Capra's 1st film to follow- Broadway Bill Claudette Colbert's was Cleopatra Clark Gable's was Men In White Robert Riskin's was Deeds Good job! Now it's your thread.

The film from '47 centered around a a young girl's fortune and her despicable relatives. ??

Guessing Jean Harlow and Jean Arthur?

Can't resist here. You have Phil Silvers stars as Sargeant Bilko in You'll Never Get Rich. My dad would laugh...oh my! and who can forget Doberman? Leslie Caron starred in "The ___ Shaped Room" Rowan and Martin's ____ -In old adage "if the shoe ____" + Thomas Mitchell played ______ O'Hara in Gone With The Wind.

Yes
