PS. Whilst having a look, I found "Xanadu."
This caused be a certain puzzlement, on account of associating that title with a
different tune.
Actually, its THIS

Dave Dee (a former policeman, I was told), Dozy Beeky, Mick & Titch.

If we are going to bring up the police, then we just must bring up these guys.

(not what you expected, right? )

Some fine-looking women on that show.
Part of the script passed into normal use: "Book 'im, Danno."

Here's another TV golden oldie that birthed a standard buzzword also:

When Edith speaks you best listen!

Picture it. 2009. Literotica Author's Hangout board. People actually helped and supported each other. Group hugs were a daily event. All was well in LitLand.

There. That's your warm fuzzy for the day. Now cut the damn cheesecake!

I see that hugs are the order of the day over in 'Just Three Words'. Reliving the magic of 2009 perhaps?

Is it just group groping, or does it have potential to graduate to full-blown orgy status?

So I'm guessing a threeway with you, Lynda Carter and Olivia Newton John would require an advance visit to your cardiologist or a trauma team on standby at bedside?

Ah. You can be so sensible sometimes, JKD.

Hey, I'm nudging up against sixty with bad lungs. My butt would be doing one or both too, if the threeway was with Ricky Martin and Zac Efron.

Ah, yes, 60. I remember that. Well ... vaguely.

And who are these chaps of whom you speak? Am I likely to run into them at my local oyster bar?

You & me both!

It's fifty years old, but I'm pretty sure I saw this one the first time it was on television.

One TV in the house and Grand Old Opry is coming on. Dad's house. Dad's TV. Dad's choice of what channel. And he loved his Flatt & Scruggs.

Loved that music!

You know, I never got the hang of "Gran' ole' opry"; could not see where it was comin' from. Why they all wearin' hats ?
One thing really puzzled me was the question of quite why there was such a shortage of microphones and mixing equipment. All that shuffling to the front so the camera could see you struck me as absolutely barking mad.
But then, the cameras were almost blind, I guess.

Our TV studios were laid out different, I think

I think most people's idea of what a TV studio looks like has been seriously influenced by things like this and they don't realize just how cramped most of them really are.

I remember during a tour of the vast NBC complex in Burbank back in the 1980's how surprised I was at the actual size of Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show" set. Very, very small compared to how it appeared on camera.

In the 1970s, I was a member of a Radio Club. One of our senior members was something technical at the local TV studios and occasionally, he would take a few of us round on the "threepenny tour".
After drooling over the latest thing in Audio Mixing desks (a Neve) and going GaGa over the stripped-down TV camera with what looked like a million transistors, we came to the main studio floor.
It was big enough to have a live audience (and sometimes did).
Oh man, that was somethin' else!

The cameras all had Very Expensive-looking Zoom lenses which were nearly as large as the main body of the camera.

The first TV show I ever worked on (as a writer, not a performer, I hasten to add) was recorded on 2-inch Quadruplex video tape. I guess that must have been in about 1965/66. The tape machine itself was about the size of a small car – and it cost about the same as a small fleet of cars.

I remember seeing something like that.

When I was a professional sales trainer for one of the top three national real estate franchises back in the early 1980's, we had a video camera/tape deck combo in the training center I was in charge of. The camera was some gawd-awful huge-assed thing that was just barely smaller than a full-blown movie studio one. The tape deck was almost as bad as the one you described, Sam, and used a weird one and a quarter inch tape I had never seen before or since.

Course we could also discuss those "portable" VCR units they sold in the early 80's also. They were only "portable" in the sense they were roughly the same size as two briefcases. I was making too much money and actually plopped down something like $1200 for one...but hey, it came with a wired remote and you could program it to record three different shows over the period of a week.

Totally hi-tech!
