Finding Out About Good Old Fashioned Radio Shows

By Marissa Velazquez


The best thing that anyone can do is to find out about old fashioned radio shows. The people involved in these events are pioneers of the sound system and they continued their careers over television. Families in the past had loads of fun listening to their favorite special on certain nights. Everyone could hear the munching of popcorn as these people enjoyed their programs. It was even great that these family members bonded during this time.

People everywhere loved to listen to the antics of such great comedians who used their voice talent to get attention from the audience. Programs like Abbott and Costello, The Adventures of Charlie Chan, Archie Andrews, Blondie, The Bob Hope Show, Burns and Allen, Gunsmoke and I Love Lucy were great entertainment events.

Everyone knows that Lucille Ball was the queen of comedy in America and she started her career over the music box before coming to the small screen. She used the same comic style over the airwaves that she would later use on her television show "I Love Lucy." This was a program which had Lucy getting into chaotic situations and resolving them before the show ended.

Behind the scenes Lucy was a very controlling woman who wanted everything done her way and a number of people were dismissed from her production. If they could not follow her rules she would gladly show them the door. When the program went to television Lucille Ball still remained the "queen of mean."

People who enjoy comic books will be glad to know that Archie Andrews had his very own show over the airwaves years ago. He was an average teenager who attended high school with his unique friends. Archie had a knack for getting into trouble at school and during his private life. The Archie Andrews program had a huge audience while it was over the sound box.

It is great that Archie comics are still a big success within America and other places. Children everywhere know all about Betty and Veronica. They seem to love Jughead the most since he is always involved in crazy situations. Reggie Mantle is just another handsome face within this group of awkward teenagers.

A woman named Blondie could always make people laugh during her nights over the sound system. Even though this show was about Blondie her husband Dagwood was the one who was really funny. The comic strips are mainly about her clumsy spouse and the trouble that he always got into. Television audiences even enjoyed seeing this couple in black and white.

Old fashioned radio shows are always fun to hear since some sound boxes still play them nowadays. This was a time when the movie and music industry were pure and had no nudity or profanity. The older generation remembers this time with great fondness and know that there will never be an outstanding character like Marshal Dillon from Gunsmoke. Some television stations in America still run these programs which started on the music box. People who are very lucky will get the chance to hear and see these videos.
