In 1941, “Red Skelton” Radio Show debuts.
In 1950, “The Frank Sinatra Show” variety show debuted on CBS-TV. It was the croonerʹs first plunge into TV, the beginning of a $250,000 per year, five-year contract. Ben Blue, The Blue Family, the Whippoorwills and Axel Stordahlʹs Orchestra were regulars on the show.
In 1952, The first “Bandstand” is broadcast in Philadelphia on WFIL-TV hosted by Bob Horn (Dick Clark joins in 1955 as a substitute-host).

In 1964, Bob Uecker, who had been shagging out in left field, tries his hand at catching batting practice balls with a tuba when an unsuspecting member of a Dixieland band leaves it unattended. Much to the delight of the crowd, the comedic Cardinals backup catcher is successful in two of his six attempts to snag a fly ball in the mouth of the instrument, but the owner, who is not amused, asks the team for $250 to cover the cost of repairing the dented brass.
In 1965, Gilliganʹs Island episode #40. “Smile, Youʹre on Mars Camera”. A NASA satellite with a TV camera, accidentally lands on the island instead of the intended target: Mars. The castaways try to communicate their S.O.S. when the camera is operational. However, with the help of a Gilligan goof-up, the castaways are covered with glue and feathers, and the NASA scientists mistakenly believe they are seeing the first proof of life on Mars.

In 1980, “SCTV”. You want “Casablanca”? “Forget about that one,” says SCTV station manager Edith Prickley (Andrea Martin), glaring at us through her catʹs-eye glasses. “Weʹve got a film classic for you tonight that youʹre gonna love: 'Play It Again, Bob,' starring Bob Hope and Woody Allen. Youʹll love it!” In a brief but gloriously funny run that began in the late 1970s, SCTV consistently skewered pop culture, never more adroitly than in this sketch, which featured Dave Thomas, doing his peerless Bob Hope imitation, and Rick Moranis, dead-on as Woody Allen. Premise: Allen dreams of finally seeing his idol in a good movie — a Woody Allen movie, for instance. The two clash immediately: Woody wants Diane Keaton to costar, Hope is thinking Joey Heatherton and complains that Keaton doesnʹt have…He holds two imaginary cantaloupes. Allen cringes. “Whatʹs with the hands? You want an actress with arthritis?” Even the intercession of a ghostly Bing Crosby (Joe Flaherty, also terrific) canʹt smooth things over. Itʹs an altogether outlandish and inspired collision of comic sensibilities. In the end, Allen comes around to Hopeʹs way of thinking, and theyʹre off to entertain the troops together. You were right, Edith. We love it.
