Synopsis
The classic television series Space Patrol was a stellar success for ABC from 1950 to 1955. As a pioneer in the hair-raising world of live television, the show had a huge fan base of both children and adults. The magic hinged on the cast: Commander Buzz Corry, Cadet Happy, Carol, Major Robertson and Tonga - five 30th century personalities whose lives entwined with soap opera strength as they undertook missions of daring in the name of interplanetary justice. A personal appearance by the cast at a Los Angeles department store drew 30,000 fans. Those fans had no idea that the actors and crew faced dramatic as well as galactic perils. In the course of producing an action-packed show live before the nation, with special effects in their infancy, what could go wrong usually did. Ed Kemmer, a real-life World War II hero who had been shot down and captured by Nazis, and who later starred as Commander Corry, learned to improvise for nervous, tongue-tied guest actors and to lean casually against scenery that was about to fall. This book recounts stories of early television and the personal heroics of Kemmer and other cast members both on and off stage. It includes interviews with Kemmer a
