Despite being something of a wasteland at times there are still gems to be found in past and present televiewing. Here are some personal favs some of you might have seen:
"MEETING OF MINDS"
Steve Allen's landmark PBS Series. The format has Allen as himself hosting a talkshow with famous historical figures as guests. They talk about their lives and times then give insight on 20th Century social climes. Emily Dickinson, Galieo, Karl Marx, Marie Antoinette, Sir Thomas More, Ulysses S. Grant, Attila The Hun and Charles Darwin are just a few to drop in with Steve. I really hope PBS brings it back or put it on DVD!
"A CHRISTMASS TO REMEMBER" Jason Robards and Eva-Marie Saint in this Depression era Christmass ghost story about a boy going to live with his grandparents. Joanne Woodward does a cameo. If you find it on tv-check it out!
