Wonderful Old Fashioned Radio Shows

By Marissa Velazquez


It is a shame that there aren't any old fashioned radio shows anymore. Society has begin to only have talk events which are about drugs, celebrities and casual sex. It is a shame that people do not believe in the old traditional valuable programs which featured adventurous heroes and good average individuals. Years ago a few nights per week mothers all around would make a snack for their family and sit down to listen to these specials.

Individuals enjoyed hearing how George Burns and Gracie Allen were getting along each night. Gracie was one comical person who knew exactly how to make people laugh aloud. Bud Abbott and Lou Costello were also the kings of comedy who lasted for many years. Bob Hope was always there to help soldiers in need during the decades. And no one could ever forget Lucille Ball.

"I Love Lucy" was an instant hit when it was featured over the sound system. This woman had a great amount of fans who loved her more and more each and every day. They could relate to her in every single way since she seemed like such an ordinary person. Her show moved to television during the 1950's and was still quite popular.

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.

There is a very pretty blond woman named Blondie who can be seen in newspapers all over the United States. Many people do not know that this particular blond bombshell started her career through the sound system. Her original name was Blondie Boopadoop until she met the very clumsy and charming Dagwood Bumstead. This same program moved to television after many years over the wooden box.

"Gunsmoke" was one of the old fashioned radio shows that made it to television for many years. Marshal Matt Dillon upheld the law within his town and everyone respected him. All of the characters stayed the same over time with only a few minor changes once they left the music box. People everywhere should take pride in the actors who performed years ago. During this time this program and others were very clean with no naked people or harsh language.
