the Dumont sketches with Pert Kelton - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Decades is airing these-they did tonight (Tuesday) I don't know if they are all week, but I hope so!

Tonight they showed the one where the Nortons appeared for the first time; and was the first and only time Elaine Stritch played Trixie (after that one time Jackie decided he didn't like her in the role)

Wish I got Decades! The DuMont shows are like little lost gems!

Me too. I am wondering if Decades unearthed some Lost episodes. They are supposed to air a Halloween Party sketch on Thu. I wonder if it’s the lost sketch from 1954 that hasn’t been seen on TV since than but I highly doubt it.

yes they are! That was a pleasant surprise when I turned it on last night. Unfortunately though; there's a downside. Because of all the commercials they only showed 3 sketches-two 5 minute ones and 1 10 minute one.

they're not airing them now; I guess it was just that one time.
