This is an episode of Jet Jackson Flying Commando airing on KSWS Channel 8 TV in New Mexico back in 1960.
It's a rainy morning in mid August, thus Al, Marge and the cubs; Jed, Rex, Clarence and Donna are watching the show on TV...Al isn't scheduled to be at work until later that day, thus he can watch the show with the rest of the family.

The show use to be Captain Midnight until the rights to it were sold in the late 1950s and the former owners retained the name.
As some of you older furries who were living in the U.S. during the 1950s may remember, when the show aired as Captain Midnight, it was sponsored by Ovaltine and offered the Secret Squadron decoder ring.
When the copyrights to the show were sold, Ovaltine withdrew sponsorship, thus ending the decoder ring offer.
The show, as Jet Jackson, aired well into the 1960s before it went by way of the dinosaur.


Here is a link to the episode depicted here, "Saboteurs Of The Sky".

When it was Captain Midnight, it was the show that was sponsored by Ovaltine, and offered kids the membership in the Secret Squadron, and had offers for the secret decoder ring.

Si-Fi was just silly fun then. Now it get's so deep I feel overwhelmed by it.

Flash Gordon was a good one back in the old days, though it was before the 1950s.

1920s or 30s I think. The crazy thing is by that time space flight was 100% sound mathematical theory. The tech had too catch up and on June 20th 1944 a Nazi test V-2 made the first space flight.

I remember seeing some of those Flash Gordon episodes when a spaceship gets shot in space by another ship, the ship that got shot would do a flip, then fall through space as though there was gravity.

Thank you.

They don't make them like that anymore. Two that come to mind are the old Flash Gordon series, and the Commander Cody Rocket Man series.

My pleasure...Another series that broadcast in the 80s in my area was "Buck Rogers" ... man that was also one of the best:

I remember that one. The setting was in the 25th Century.

I think the character I remember most from that Buck Rogers series was Twiggy the robot. He stood about 4 feet tall. And when ever he said something, he'd start out with the sound, "Bugga bugga bugga".

I don't remember that show being on the air when I was born in 1962.  It must've been cancelled before then.  The first sci-fi shows I remember watching were The Outer Limits, Lost In Space, and Star Trek.

I'm also worried about it being a rainy morning.  It might be a storm which could make driving hazardous, and a lightning bolt could hit a power line and cause a blackout.

Oh, and thanks for the face as well.

By the mid 1960s, the show was already gone.
