Lucy boldly went where no female Hollywood executive had gone before.
“Cushman also wrote for other high-profile shows”
In the article — I fail to see the value in putting this crud in the article. Idiots.
“… I fail to see the value in putting this crud in the article.”
The content producer is a relative of the previously mentioned crud?
What’s wrong?
You don’t like sheet that don madder???👻👍
I guess it took landing on the moon for space adventure shows to gain attention..
“We owe it to Lucy for bringing us Star Trek that’s endured to this day.”
Like the Adult themes in the Flintstones, the stories on Star Trek will continue to resonate with people for eternity...as they both deal with how we’re wired.
Yup. She made a great decision concerning Star Trek and she didn’t even know how big it would get.
I met her as a little kid my mom modeled clothes for her at Bullocks Wilshire she was always a joy to us Imma twin and she always sent us a card and a few bucks up till about 1970
I’ve never bet too heated up about Science Fiction, but
Mannix and Mission Impossible were Must See TV in my household. One of the few prime time shows my parents both liked. We watched Mannix on Friday nights, right after Wild, Wild, West and That Girl on a different network.
Lalo Schifrin wrote the theme songs for both Mannix and Mission Impossible. Those themes paved the way for the excited of the episode. In Mannix, it started with a frantic brass section, moving quickly into a commanding trombone solo.
One of Lalo’s American influences was Dizzy Gillespie.
The first episodes that I saw - during the show's original run, - were on a black & white TV. By the time syndication re-runs began, a lot more of the viewing public had color TVs, which added to the surge in popularity.
Would have been if Lucy had made a cameo in an episode.
Arrrrgh. It would have great if Lucy had made a cameo.
I remember how exciting it was to see color TV shows.
Mission Impossible was on Sunday night correct?
It would have to have been a Cameo scene for Lucy.
That was near her peak in national fame. Everyone who watched any TV knew her. She might have played it for laughs and appeared as Red Queen of the Tribbles.
I don’t believe Star Trek ever had any black and white episodes
To be honest, I don’t recall the exact days for all those shows, but we would often watch at least 2 or the 3 on the same evening. I saw more of them during Summer Vacation anyway, when I could stay up later. Those re-run times jumped around.
Gawd it seemed Mannix got shot or bashed over the heads every week.
MI has given birth to a long string of hits for Tom Cruise. I preferred Stephen Hill to Peter Graves (aka James Arnese’ brother).
Poor Donald always frustrated by a chaste Marlo Thomas.
