THE RICHARD BOONE SHOW
The Richard Boone Show is a short-lived, award-winning anthology
television series.
It aired on NBC during the 1963-64 season.
Richard Boone hosted the series and starred in about half of the
episodes, garnering an
Emmy nomination for himself and a Golden Globe award for the show.
His repertory company of 15 actors included up-and-comers such as
Guy Stockwell and Robert Blake as well as such established
performers as Bethel Leslie (who was nominated for an Emmy Award for
her performance in the series), Warren Stevens and Harry Morgan.
They rotated parts freely; each appeared in most episodes, and each
starred in at least one. The regular writers included Clifford
Odets. Producer Buck Houghton was overseen by the prolific team of
Mark Goodson and Bill Todman.
Programmed against the very popular CBS sitcom, Petticoat Junction,
Boone's anthology show was unable to find or keep an audience. It
was cancelled after only one season, and has not been syndicated or
released on home video, except for a brief showing on the Global
Television Network in Canada in the late 1980s.
Due to it's very limited run on TV it is an extremely rare
television experience and we are just fortunate that someone at
sometime took the opportunity to record this series for future
generations to enjoy.
Because of this the quality
of the series varies from show to show generally ranging around 7.5
in quality which we feel is still more then acceptable. We are
confident that this is the best quality you will find anywhere.
