And every season the same tripe shows up on the toob and I wonder what I could have been thinking about. Again, though, I'm -sticking my neck out and saying this year looks good. Returning, of course, will be the old standbys: Canadian shows like Sunday at Nine, Week- end, Man Alive, Front Page Chal- lenge, Tuesday Night, Singalong Jubilee, This Land, Telescope, Tommy Hunter, Tommy Banks, NHL Hockey, Countrytime and Provincial Affairs; and foreign shows like The Partridge Family, Cannon which has turned into a good detective series, the Mary Tyler Moore Show, good light. comedy, Flip Wilson and Carol Burnett with their hour-long variety series, and All in the Family. New to the CBC from across the border are some biggies: Julie Andrews' new hour-long variety series which is going into the Sun- day at 8 spot; "Cousin Maude" and All -in -the -Family type show starring Beatrice ' Arthur as a relative of Archie Bunker's wife; "MASH", a half-hour . comedy series based on the hit movie of the same name and starring Alan Alda and Wayne Rogers as sur- geons in a Mobile Surgical Hospi- tal • unit in Korea during the Korean War. "How can that be funny?" you ask. "Well, look what `Hogan's Heroes' made of a series about prisoners of wear! Last but not least from the U.S., comes "Anna and the King of Siam". It has been a book, it has been a Broadway musical, it has' been a movie, so,. it had to come to television. This is the • - story of the American governess who is hired by the King of Siam to tutor runny children and it his many children ll. stars Yul Brynner who played the King in the movie, and English actress Samantha Eggar whom I you may.remember as the ill- b fated kidnapped girl in "The Col- t lector". She was .nominated for a ' an Oscar for her performance in v that movie: - th Included in the list of new , in shows are also several Canadian - produced series. "Images of Cauda" ,is a �si�c -para series on " it our country's history; including u By Vonnl Lee looks at New France, 1600-1 The Maritimes, 1600-1867; an Upper Canada from 1776 to 1900 Bruno Gerussi stars in a hal hour color .series entitled "Th Beachcpmbers", a story about British Columbia beachcombe makes a living salvagin logs off the rugged coastline. Th episodes were filmed on locatio at Gibsons, forty miles north Vancouver. Hopefully to be carried by th local channel are thirteen hal hour color shows produced by th National Film Board, on th French in Canada. NFB will als produce six documentaries ,of 6 minutes or more. The second series of th "Whiteoaks of Jalna" is cur rently in production and will b shown in 14 hour-long offerings i early 1973. Irl a tentative list of special coming up on the CBC, are som great specials: musicals lik "The Adventures of Pinocchio" a CBC Winnipeg production "Maid as Mistress", an Italian comic opera sung in English and you know it will be good because it is produced by Mario Pirzek; a television premiere of a European ballet company :in one of its most famous ballets re- staged for TV; the modern To- ronto Dance Theatre performing live in London; Glenn Gould in concert; the sound of the big brass band filmed on location at the brass band festival held at Niagara Falls this summer; and a .look at French composer Jac-. quep Offenbach with Canac,ian singers and dancers performing everything from "Can -Can" to "Barcarolle". This will be filmed partly in Paris. . Three specials, on the work of authors George Bernard Shaw, Stephen Leacock and Tennessee Williams, will be produced for the CBC and will star people like Christopher Plummer and Wil- iam Hutt. Norman Campbell will e back with outstanding produc- ions, one an hour-long Gilbert nd Sullivan -special; the other a ariety show commemorating e 20th anniversary of television Canada. When we have nothing to say 's best t"oiay 'nothing, but few of s can do it. 867; f- a e n of fe e e 0 0 e e n s e e Mrs.W>l x i1 ' laml n Cu le and Miss LuceIle White, Toronto, and Mrs. Clarence White attended the golden wedding anniversary of Mr: and Mrs. T.
