This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's Easter morning when it happens: Charlie is gardening and stumbles upon a brown, palm-sized frog underneath a clot of dirt. He's astonished to discover that the frog not only has a name-Todd Thomas III-but it also talks! The two try to understand one another, but the frog often takes Charlie's words too literally, and Charlie struggles to understand the world of speaking animals that the frog says exists. Even Charlie's cat, Clyde, can talk, the frog claims. But that is nothing compared to what Todd Thomas III says next: He's a magical frog and can grant Charlie three wishes-but he needs to use them by the end of the summer. While Charlie isn't sure what to believe at first, he starts to trust after finding out that his cat can, in fact, talk. He even learns that Clyde and Todd are friends. The wishes are for Charlie alone, and he'll need to think long and hard before going back to Todd Thomas III to make his first one: to be there for the very first Christmas.

Download or read book The A to Z of Old Time Radio written by Robert C. Reinehr and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010-04-09 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term Old Time Radio refers to the relatively brief period from 1926, when the National Broadcasting Company first began network broadcasting, until approximately 1960, when television became the dominant communication medium in the United States. During this time, radio was as popular and ubiquitous as television is today. It was amazingly varied in the types of programming it offered; many characters and programs were so popular that virtually everyone was familiar with them. Even today, recorded versions of these programs are still extremely popular and widely available, both from commercial outlets and from hobbyists. Behind the production of these programs was a complex technological and financial infrastructure that had to be developed virtually from scratch in a world unaccustomed to the rapid communication and technological marvels that we take for granted today. The A to Z of Old Time Radio provides essential facts and information on the Golden Age of Radio. This is accomplished through the use of a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on the radio networks, programs, directors, producers, writers, actors, radio series, and radio stations. Entries on your favorite shows—The Lone Ranger, The Shadow, Dragnet, and Suspense—and actors—Bob Hope, George Burns, Gracie Allen, and Edgar Bergen—will have you jumping from one entry to the next as you relive old favorites and discover hidden treasures from the Golden Age of Radio.

Download or read book Timeless Adventures written by Brian J. Robb and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This critical history of Doctor Who covers the series 60 years, from the creation of the show to its triumph as Britain's number one TV drama. Opening with an in-depth account of the creation of the series within the BBC of the early 1960s, each decade of the show is tackled through a unique political and pop cultural historical viewpoint, exploring the links between contemporary Britain and the stories Doctor Who told, and how such links kept the show popular with a mass television audience. Timeless Adventures reveals how Doctor Who is at its strongest when it reflects the political and cultural concerns of a mass British audience (the 1960s, 1970s and 21st Century), and at its weakest when catering to a narrow fan-based audience (as in the 1980s). The book also addresses the cancellation of the show in the late 1980s (following the series becoming increasing self-obsessed) and the ways in which a narrowly-focused dedicated fandom contributed to the show's demise and yet was also instrumental in its regeneration for the 21st Century under Russell T. Davies, and analyses the new series to reveal what has made it so popular, reflecting real world issues like consumerism and dieting.
Download or read book Popeye written by Fred M. Grandinetti and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2004-08-12 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a rare comic character who can make audiences laugh for well over half a century--but then again, it's a pretty rare cartoon hero who can boast of forearms thicker than his waist, who can down a can of spinach in a single gulp, or who generally faces the world with one eye squinted completely shut. When E.C. Segar's gruff but lovable sailor man first tooted his pipe to the public on January 7, 1929, it was not in the animated cartoon format for which he is best known today (and which would become the longest running series in film history). Instead it was on the comics page of the New York Journal, as Segar's Thimble Theatre strip. Over the decades to come, Popeye was to appear on radio, television, stage, and even in a live-action feature film. This comprehensive and lavishly illustrated history is a thoroughly updated and revised edition of the highly acclaimed 1994 work. Animated series and films are examined, noting the different directions each studio took and the changing character designs of the Popeye family. Popeye in other media--comics, books, radio, and a stage play--is thoroughly covered, as are Robert Altman's 1980 live-action film, and Popeye memorabilia.
