Watching TV from the 1950s and '60s, it begins to seem as if television was comprised of a vast repertory company of actors and actresses who simply rotated through all the shows and then started over again. You start to recognize some of them by name or face, or, if you're really lucky, by name and face.
Myrna Fahey is one of those names and faces; according to the always-reliable Wikipedia, she appeared in episodes of 37 television series from the 1950s until her untimely death from cancer in 1973 at age 40. As if to prove a point, she's in not one but two shows tonight: first, as the lead guest star in Wagon Train; and then in Hawaiian Eye, and for all I know she's in other shows this week as well. But that was the way of it back then, and it just shows that you didn't have to be a star of a big show to be a familiar face. This week's listings are from the Pittsburgh edition; maybe you'll see some other names you recognize.

I have a possibly impertinent question:
ReplyDeleteIn your post, you ask us all to see if we recognize the performers like Myrna Fahey in the listings ...
... but you never mention the names of the performers in the listings!
That would seem to defeat the purpose, if you ask me ...
There are many examples I could give here: here's one, chosen at random:
This week's Naked City (ABC, 10:00 EST): "The Human Trap", about a divorcee who discovers that her fiance is dating her teenage daughter.
Sounds kind of interesting; I imagine that your correspondent Stephen Taylor might find this one interesting himself - and I'll leave it to you to deduce the reason why (as usual, no spoilers).
As I mentioned, this is one example, to serve for many - and not only this day, but the whole week; that's one of the attractions of these old TV Guides.
I'll stand down here, for now: anybody who'd like to pick this up, feel free.
More later, if necessary ...
Good point. I don't think it's pedantic, but my intention in asking this question was purely rhetorical, wondering whether or not people noticed this kind of thing either when they were watching old shows, or reading TV Guides themselves - not when they're reading through my listings. I'm never going to go into any detail on the listings other than what I write in the Saturday piece or that bit that starts the Monday piece.
DeleteCertainly you can't watch a month of Perry Mason episodes without encountering a dozen actors whom you recognize either by name or by appearance!
