Default A blast from the past

"From out of the clear blue of the Western sky . . .comes Sky King!"

Here are links to every episode of the "Sky King" TV show. I wonder
if any pilots on this ng were inspired as kids by this how?

Enjoy!


Thanks for the links! We've got several of these episodes on DVD, and
showed them on "Movie Night at the Inn" as part of a double feature.

OMG -- I had forgotten how *sappy* a lot of those old shows really
were! Situations that seemed so cool as a young lad now seemed
absurd, and Penny -- once the girl of my dreams -- was like finger
nails on a black board!

Everyone enjoyed watching the episodes, but only for the nostalgia.
Wouldn't it be great if they could make something like that show again
today, only with more realistic situations and acting?
