    A Favorite

    This was one of my favorite Red Skelton shows. In addition to conducting the Pops, Skelton also plays in the percussion section to great comic effect. I've not seen this episode in the fifty-one years since it was first broadcast. Apparently it is not available on DVD. Hopefully it will appear on the re-runs currently appearing on the HAPA cable channel.

    • Trivia
      In a program taped in Boston, Red Skelton, who has 600 cataloged musical works, hears two of his compositions, 'My True Love' and 'The Kadiddlehopper March' performed by conductor Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops. The Pops also perform 'Farandole', 'The William Tell Overture', David Rose's 'Holiday for Strings' and 'Love' and a Richard Rodgers' medley of 'Oh, What a Beautiful Morning', 'It's a Grand Night for Singing' and 'Falling in Love With Love.' Sites visited during this program include Symphony Hall, Logan Airport, Paul Revere's House, Old North Church, USS Constitution, and Firehouse #1. Red's Clem Kadiddlehopper leads the Pops in a slapstick rendition of 'The Poet and Peasant Overture.' Robert Merrill sings 'The Impossible Dream.'
