First, however, I want to note the wonderful addition to the facilities here. Just one year after completing the renovation of Kodak Hall and the adjoining spaces in Eastman Theatre, the Eastman School of Music has just dedicated its fabulous new East Wing. Featuring the world- class new Hatch Recital Hall, an orchestra-sized rehearsal space, and state of-the-art audio and video capabilities, the new wing will bring other direct benefits to RPO patrons, as well. Featured in the East Wing’s soaring Wolk Atrium, with its gorgeous Chihuly installation, are the brand new and convenient Box Office and Theatre Shop. And because the new wing connects to Eastman Theatre and extends to Swan Street adjacent to the East End Garage exit, ease of access will be improved, greatly reducing time spent outdoors in our colder weather. Also in December, the RPO’s newest undertaking—The Eastman Theatre: Fulfilling George Eastman’s Dream—received its official launch. This highly anticipated 200+ page book chronicles the Eastman Theatre from dream to design to reality. This project came to fruition through the drive and determination of a few important people. Foremost among these: Betty Strasenburgh for her foresight and tenacity in bringing this book to life and her generosity in underwriting its production; RPO Board Chair Suzanne Welch, the Project Manager; and of course, author Elizabeth Brayer, photographer Andy Olenick, and designer Kathryn D’Amanda. Thank you so much to this fantastic team. The book is available at www.rpo.org/EastmanTheatreBook and in the new Theatre Shop, where you also can find recordings by the RPO, our guest artists, and by Eastman faculty and alumni, as well as one-of-a-kind gift items. Now that winter is here, we hope you’ll visit Eastman Theatre regularly and warm up with the magnificent sounds of your RPO! Sincerely, Charles H.

  • The Flintstones (1960-1966), About a “Modern Stone-Age Family,” Was The
    Columbia Pictures) to develop a prime-time animated series. They worked out the concept of parodying current situation comedies, especially The Honeymooners and Father Knows Best, with the twist of setting them in a different historical era. Cartoonists Dan Gordon and Bill Benedict had the idea to use a Stone Age setting (although the Fleischer Studios pro- duced a similar series of Stone Age Cartoons back in 1940). The concept was bought by ABC, and premiered Sept. 30, 1960. Voiced by Alan Reed, Jr. (Fred Flintstone), Mel Blanc (Barney Rubble), Jean VanderPyl (Wilma Flintstone) and veteran actress Bea Benaderet (Betty Rubble), The Flintstones finished the season in the Nielsen ratings’ top 20, and won a number of industry awards, including the Golden Globe, and an [email protected] Emmy nomination for best comedy series of 1960-61. A clear appeal of the series lays in its parody of sitcom for- mula plots, and there are elements of satire in the way modern consumer conveniences are turned into sight gags. One of the show’s favorite gags was to have cameos by Stone Age versions of modern celebrities (Ann Margrock, Stony Curtis, etc.). The most popular gimmick was Wilma’s pregnancy, ending with the February 1963 “birth” of their little girl, Pebbles. The next season the Rubbles adopted Bamm-Bamm, a little boy of incredible strength and a one- word vocabulary. By the fifth and sixth seasons, the show began to use more storylines aimed at kids, with new neighbors the Grue- somes (a spin on The Munsters and The Addams Family), and magical space alien The Great Gazoo (Harvey Korman).

  • Forecast Log
    Forecast Log http://www.old-time.com/otrlogs2/forecast_mg.html FORECAST Is There a Sponsor in the House? Written by Martin Grams, Jr. The trial-and-error system being an old if frequently painful institution in the show business (else all stage plays would be hits, and all radio programs would have an Amos and Andy average in the Crossley ratings), the Columbia Broadcasting System’s Forecast series shrewdly dramatized the fact that there is no such phenomenon as a sure thing. For two particular seasons, the CBS people enlivened summer’s somewhat lethargic air waves with a schedule of experimental entertainments which, to tell the truth, aren’t experimental in the exact sense of the word, but have nevertheless a refreshing air about them, if only for the ideas they represented. The idea is that neither CBS nor anyone else knew, until they were produced, whether the programs were any good or not, though they were of course, hoping for the best. And, very sensibly, they made a game of it. Whereas the listener during the busy season was told to take what he got and, if possible, like it, Forecast invited criticism. Listening to the various episodes, one could not help but applaud for Marlene Dietrich in "The Thousand and One Nights," and convulsed with laughter as they listened to the amorous antics of "Mischa the Magnificent." (Mischa Auer, that is.) Whatever it was that made people bet on horse races or write letters to the editor, they could file an honest opinion about the programs and then sat back to await the verdict.

As they stumble in and out of hilariously misguided relationships — strung together with animated vignettes by Bob Sabiston (A Scanner Darkly) and an original score by Vampire Weekend’s Chris Baio — Max never ages, holding on to a mysterious briefcase that may or may not contain the secret to life.
