Members SoapDope Posted September 7, 2024 Members Share Posted September 7, 2024 (edited) A promo for the lost shelved sitcom "Snip" starring David Brenner and Lesley Ann Warren from 1976. The show was pulled at the last minute by NBC and never aired in the U.S. because of one of the characters on the show was openly gay. The show did air in Australia. Please register in order to view this content The infamous George Schlatter show "Turn On" from 1969. The show aired once and was cancelled mid episode when some executive said to get that crap off the air. There were reports of viewers getting physically sick or disturbed by the jump cuts. Some affiliates refused to air the show and some went to a blank screen with music playing to fill the slot after the first commercial break. There were 2 completed episodes and fragments from a third unfinished episode. Edited September 7, 2024 by SoapDope 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted November 10, 2024 Author Members Share Posted November 10, 2024 A Youtuber was anonymously sent a treasure trove of old footage and is uploading the material over time. They will also be uploading on Internet Archive. This is six episodes of a 1975 David Attenborough BBC animal documentary. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyc_XMzJb5hkoj8rmx-Ll_A2UM7LU8L4h 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Bright Eyes Posted November 26, 2024 Members Share Posted November 26, 2024 Amazing find! Thanks for bringing that article here. And how wonderful a coincidence for me that this happens during the time I'm listening to John Ford's season of The Plot Thickens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted 6 hours ago Author Members Share Posted 6 hours ago Silent Clowns Film Series: Taxi! Taxi! (1927) at the Bruno Walter Auditorium – PIANYC The Silent Clowns Film Series is New York’s longest-running regularly scheduled silent film showcase. Our programming reaches the serious film buff by including rarely-screened titles and rare prints, yet it also introduces kids and new audiences to the classics of the silent screen. Screenings feature live piano accompaniment by MoMA’s Ben Model, with an introduction and Q&A by film historians Model and Steve Massa. Remembered today for his fussy persona in sound films, Edward Everett Horton had a substantial career in silent comedy and starred in numerous features and shorts. We are proud to present the re-premiere of a Horton feature that was lost and recently rediscovered. Taxi! Taxi! (1927) was produced by Universal, and is perfectly tailored to Eddie’s well-known screen character. Opening the bill is the also re-discov-ered cartoon The Battle (1922) with Koko the Clown. I'm not sure how this was discovered. It was screened on January 11th. Wiki just mentions the film being found in late 2024. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
