Fess Parker and Ed Ames - Daniel Boone (1964)

[vintage-every-day]

A legendary moment, one of the longest laughs from a studio audience ever recorded on television. Ed Ames teaching Johnny Carson how to throw a tomahawk on The Tonight Show in 1965.

Remember “The Cricket on the Hearth”? Well, Lucky You Have Me

Rankin/Bass's animated musical "Cricket on the Hearth" (1967) is a holiday film narrating the story of Cricket Crocket who ends up living with the financially-troubled Plumber family.

In keeping with the holiday season, I decided to watch the Rankin/Bass follow up to Rudolph, “Cricket on the Hearth” (1967).  This is another Christmas classic I grew up watching, but unlike Rudolph, I don’t remember it playing every year. In fact, I don’t remember seeing it until I was a bit older, maybe early 2000s. Now, I own it on Blu-Ray and can watch it year in and year out. While this made…

Ed Ames – The Windmills Of Your Mind (1969)

RIP: Ed Ames

[kwebtv]

Edmund Dantes Urick (July 9, 1927 – May 21, 2023), known professionally as Ed Ames or Eddie Ames, was an American pop singer and actor. He was known for playing Mingo in the television series Daniel Boone, and for his Easy Listening number #1 hits of the mid-to-late 1960s including "My Cup Runneth Over", "Time,Time", and "When the Snow Is on the Roses". He was also part of the popular 1950s singing group with his siblings, the Ames Brothers.

Ames played a wanted murderer holed-up in a hotel during a smallpox quarantine on a 1962 The Rifleman episode ("Quiet Night, Deadly Night"), and guest-starred as Kennedy in the 1963 episode "The Day of the Pawnees, Part 2" on ABC's The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters, with Kurt Russell in the title role. He guest-starred in 1963 on Richard Egan's NBC modern western series, Redigo.  (Wikipedia)

Excerpt:

A native of Massachusetts and a son of Jewish immigrants from Ukraine, Ames starred as the Oxford-educated Mingo opposite Fess Parker as Daniel Boone on the first four seasons (1964-68) of the TV Western.

His most memorable night on television, however, came in April 1965 during an appearance on NBC’s The Tonight Show. Demonstrating to host Johnny Carson how Mingo would expertly handle a tomahawk, he hurled the weapon at an outline of a cowboy drawn on a wooden board — and it stuck right in the crotch.

As the audience howled, Carson left his desk and said to Ames in now-classic ad-libbed lines, “I didn’t even know you were Jewish!” and “Welcome to frontier bris!”

The whole thing generated one of the longest laughs in the history of The Tonight Show — at about four minutes, some say one of the longest in the annals of TV — and was a staple of highlight shows for decades.

Ames died Sunday at his home in Los Angeles after a battle with Alzheimer’s, at age 95.

Taking Aim at Ed Ames and the Ames Brothers

Oh, don’t worry, I’m not going to be mean to the Ames Brothers — I just like a bit of sonic wordplay in my headlines. But if I’d written this post back in the ’70s when I was a kid, I likely would have been unsparing in my meanness. By that point the Ames Brothers had been disbanded for over a decade, and were known to people my age strictly as one of those old timey acts that sold greatest hits…
