This week at Central Illinois' On-Line Broadcast Museum, dougquick.com, I'll explain why this week's videos almost weren't posted. But, here they are, a scene from "Love Boat," outtakes from "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" with Don Rickles, and another set with the stars of "Adam-12." Plus, an unsold pilot with many present and future stars from 1965 with a younger Shirley Jones of "The Partridge Family." Catch up with what's going on at the Museum this week.

Last night, I received the 2024 Historic Preservation Award from the Illiana Genealogical and Historical Society Foundation. That award stems from my book "Pictures on the Prairie: The First Ten Years of Mid-Illiknois Television" and my website, Central Illinois' On-Line Broadcast Museum, at dougquick.com. I also received Proclamations from the Danville Mayor, the State Legislature, and the Illinois Senate. It was a great honor, and I thank all who were involved.

Starting Saturday evening, April 13, through the 20th, check out the Videos of the Week at Central Illinois' On-Line Broadcast Museum at dougquick.com. You're probably aware of the "six degrees of separation" theory, which states that all people have six or fewer social connections away from each other. Next week, the Videos of the Week will also show that it works with television shows. I'll trace a mid-50s sitcom to a sitcom in the 70s, then link it back with another thread to the show in the mid-50s! See you at the Museum!
