About

TelevisionWeek Executive Editor Tom Gilbert joins our roster of bloggers with this forum all about classic television, where anything from "Leave It to Beaver" to "Malcolm in the Middle" is fair game for discussion. Reunion specials, DVD releases of classic shows, vintage commercials -- anything that's ever been telecast is the hot topic here.

Talk About Yer Product Placement

July 17, 2008 4:30 PM

"Find a wheel and it goes round, round, round!" Corny though it may be, I absolutely love this musical segment from a 1959 "The Lawrence Welk Show"—for a million reasons, including the unabashed wholesomeness of the Lennon Sisters. And, of course, the now-vanished Pacific Ocean Park. And isn't it utterly fabulous how it transmogrifies into the longest Dodge commercial ever, lyrics and all? If you're going to hit 'em over the head, at least entertain 'em.
