For those bloggers that are new to us, here is a little Background on our Blog:

This Blog started June 7th 2006 shortly after eBay announced the new blogging format.

July 15th 2006 we added on a stats counter as we found most viewers read but didn't comment and we wanted to know if we were being 'read'!

We also started expanding our pop culture topics as we found that more and more bloggers finding us enjoyed several of the TV Shows that we also enjoyed. Thus 'Our Take' on episodes on TV Shows that we watch was born! 

We want to thank ALL of you for stopping in and visiting our Blog today. If there are topics we don't discuss but could fit our pop culture - comic books related theme, feel free to email us!

Regarding our archived blog posts: Please be aware that eBay techs have revised the blogging format, thus our archived posts may be distorted to read... sorry about that but it is out of our control here!

Thanks for reading this popular culture - comics - comic books blog post!

Zorro TV Show

Starring Guy Madison!

The Zorro TV Show had a strange history in that it was both featured  as a TV series, and a few hour long shows on the Disney show on ABC!

This TV Show aired from 1957  to 1959 on the ABC Network. Then Zorro was on the Disney Show in 1960 and 1961 as 4 one hour long shows.

The TV series itself  had 78 episodes during its' run.

Almost everyone knows the story of Zorro, but a lot of people don't know that Annette Funicello, another Disney Star, was on Season 2 of the TV Show as 'Anita Cabrillo'.

I myself missed most of the episodes, as they were on Thursday nights at 8pm, so my folks must have been watching either 'December Bride' or the 'Ed Wynn Show'?

Anyway, I still have several of my Annette collectibles, but never did get the above comic book to add to my collection!

Supposedly the TV Show ended due to a dispute between ABC and Disney!

Have Gun, Will Travel

Starring Richard Boone!

No, It's NOT the title of a terrorist TV Show or even a James Bond Film!

This TV Show aired from 1957  to 1963 on CBS.

The show lasted for 225 episodes, reaching the #4 top show per the Nielsen Ratings its' first year, and was #3 for the next three years. Westerns were really popular on TV back then!

The show followed the adventures of Paladin, who was a gentleman turned gunfighter.

We never learned his name, but in the first episode of the final season, we learned his origin!

This gunfighter came with his own calling card, the 'Knight' of the chessboard.

Indeed the theme song refers to him as a 'knight without armor'!
