Relive the halcyon days of our youth with TELEVISION GREATS-THE SITCOMS: VOLUME ONE. There was a time when situation comedies ruled the television airways. After a long day, families would gather around the single black & white television in their homes and laugh together at comedy shows of that era. When syndicated television came along, many of these great shows found a second life and were repeatedly watched by kids when they returned home from school and became cultural touchstones for multiple generations.
Of course, with great successes come great licensing opportunities. The most popular television shows were adapted to comic books and regularly appeared on the spinner racks of the day. Dell
Comic's anthology series, FOUR COLOR COMICS provided a pathway to test which television series would be the most profitable to spinoff into their own comic book series. Included in this collection are eight hysterically funny comic books based on popular television sit-coms. They are: ANDY
GRIFFITH from FOUR COLOR #1341, CAR 54, WHERE ARE YOU? from FOUR COLOR #1257, a selection of stories featuring the HONEYMOONERS from JACKIE GLEASON issues #1-3 published by ST. JOHN,
LEAVE IT TO BEAVER from FOUR COLOR #1285, Dell Comics' McHALE'S NAVY #3, MISTER ED, THE
TALKING HORSE from FOUR COLOR #1295, Dell's THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES #1 and THE DANNY
THOMAS SHOW from FOUR COLOR #1249.
