These are some of my favorite sitcom Christmas episodes.
“Guess Who’s Coming to Christmas” is the twelfth episode of the first season of the American TV show Happy Days. It originally aired on ABC on December 17, 1974. Written by Bill Idelson, the episode features the main cast of the series, including Ron Howard as Richie Cunningham,
“I’m gonna have to have a loooong talk with that boy”. Yes, the Beverly Hillbillies is my second induction for my Sitcom Hall of Fame.
“The Beverly Hillbillies” is a classic American sitcom that originally aired on CBS (a Filmways production) from September 26, 1962, to March 23, 1971. The show was created by writer and director Paul Henning and became one of the most popular TV shows of its time.
I watched the 1957 Universal International horror/sci-fi movie “The Incredible Shrinking Man” on Svengoolie. After going through a strange fog, while boating, Robert “Scott” Carey begins to slowly shrink after a few months. The movie was produced by Albert Zugsmith (Touch of Evil, High School Confidential, Confessions of an Opium Eater) and directed by Jack Arnold (It Came From Outer Space, Creature From the Black Lagoon, Revenge of the Creature, Tarantula!, High School Confidential).
I watched the 1955 science fiction, giant monster horror movie “Tarantula!” on Svengoolie. The Universal-International flick is produced by William Alland (This Island Earth, It Came From Outer Space, The Deadly Mantis, The Mole People, The Colossus of New York, The Space Children, and the three Creature from the Black Lagoon films) and directed by Jack Arnold (It Came from Outer Space, Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Incredible Shrinking Man).
