In “The Playhouse” Buster Keaton has outdone himself.

It is chockful of side-splitting situations and gags.

An iconic moment, featuring one of the longest laughs ever recorded from a studio audience on American television. Ed Ames showing Johnny Carson how to throw a tomahawk on The Tonight Show in 1965.

In 1964, a composer named John Williams was hired to write a theme song for a new TV show called GILLIGAN'S ISLAND.

Sherwood Schwartz disliked it, fired him, and got someone else to write a new theme song.

This is the John Williams original for the pilot.

The 8x smoother versions of Jason and the Argonauts (1963) are clearly better.

But are they more satisfying?

My 9yr old self, upon reliving these magical moments thinks not.

Surely, this information is needed.

You can now start your day.

This is from the 1937 film, "Sh! The Octopus". I have not seen the film, but the reviews I've read are not complimentary. The film is part comedy, part drama. But this scene freaked out audiences! I came across this clip about it and how it was done. Remember---1937!

The amazing Nicholas Brothers. To me, unsurpassed in brilliant athleticism and the expression of pure joy.
