For shame!

That's Tor Johnson

That being Tor Johnson on the right and Wally Cox on the left, would this be "The Adventures of Hiram Holliday"?

Wow, never heard of Fury. Great Trivia.

So he went from Fury right into Whiplash. Cool!

Yes, great show while it lasted, I loved how he used to fight with his can, I was only a wee lad and was probably quite corny but shows/stories/morals were much better then, that's where i feel sorry for kids of today, they never knew the freedom we had!

Here is yet another show, remember the dinner bell?

What was the first American TV show broadcast in color? I qualified it for American shows but I think it is also the first in the world, but definitely the first in America.

Extra points for the first TV series to be broadcast in color.

And TV show means a commercial broadcast show, not an experiment or a demonstration.
