Princess of Tap Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I always thought that Paul Anka wrote Tall Paul for Annette. But he didn't; it was Disney's Sherman Brothers. Anka Wrote Puppy Love and It's Really Love for Annette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenderblue19 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Yes Annette inspired Puppy Love and the other song was Put Your Head On MyShoulder those were the 2 I was looking for. not sure that It's Really Love was inspired by his feelings for Annette, maybe it was, haven't read that anywhere.

Princess of Tap Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Lav, everytime put your head on my shoulder came on the radio, I would just melt. He made every girl feel a little special. LOL Next-- This record is a satire of my favorite TV show. It's a fictional episode of the show with the plot described by break-in hits of the day. Some of the hits were - - Artificial Flowers by Bobby Darin, You're 16 by Johnny Burnette and Rubber Ball by Bobby Vee. The top 40 hits should give you the correct chronological setting for the record. Please name the artist, the title and the TV show that they were so cleverly satirizing.

Princess of Tap Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 It was the top TV show of its day. It was a particular genre that may have spawned several copycats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess of Tap Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 It's a Dickie Goodman 1961 break-in classic - - based on a popular hour-long TV dramatic series that was a Period Piece. And some of the artists in the break-ins are Bobby Darin singing Artificial Flowers, Elvis singing Are You Lonesome Tonight? Johnny Burnette singing You're Sixteen and Bobby Vee singing Rubber Ball-- all hits of the day. It was called The Touchables based on the TV show The Untouchables. Goodman did 2 other break-in records with The Untouchables theme. Dickie Goodman was the Weird Al of his era. Basically what he did was to use pieces of hit records of the day to describe a plot from a popular TV show. The plot of this record centered on the St.Valentine's Day Massacre. Goodman even did a break-in record for a congressional hearing featuring Bobby Kennedy and Senators questioning mobsters, as those hearings were very current at the time--preempting the daily soap operas on television. The Touchables reached number 60 on the Hot Billboard 100. I declare this thread is open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregoryPeckfan Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Which character actor appeared in more Hitchcock movies than any other actor in terms of his American films? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBeacon Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 The first name that popped into my head was Norman Lloyd but then realized Leo G. Carroll was in at least 5 films: starting with "Rebbeca" "Spellbound" "Suspicion" "Strangers on a Train" and "North by Northwest" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregoryPeckfan Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 That is correct DJ. I understand that ther ewas an actress who did a lot of bit parts who actually appeared in more of Hitch's British films pre-Hollywood than Leo did, but those are bit parts.

DownGoesFrazier Posted March 22, 2016 Author Share Posted March 22, 2016 DJ, it's your turn. Ok, here's one. This series started as a TV Movie of the week, starring Gene Barry and the eventual star of the series. Title of the Movie of the Week? Title of series?

DJBeacon Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I just saw Gene in a TV Movie called "Prescription Murder" and it had Lt. Columbo in it and that seemed to start the "Columbo" TV series. But that doesn't seem to fit what you are looking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I think it does, because a lot of detective TV series of the 1970s shared a Movie of the Week night such as Columbo, MacMillan and Wife, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBeacon Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Thanks. Sticking with the "Columbo" theme, in one episode, it ends up one of Columbo's superiors was the killer, 1) Who played Columbo's superior in this episode? 2) How did Columbo trip him up?
