Although the Warren Commission denied it, this shot taken from the Zapruder film continues to give credence to the Single Antenna Theory. Conspiracy buffs everywhere still talk about the lone radioman on the grassy knoll...

What might have been a promising invention burned to a crisp, along with it's inventor Dr. Scholl, during its first demonstration. Reception was bad, so, Dr. Scholl decided to climb atop a nearby roof. He had just reached the top of the aluminum ladder, when the lighting struck him. The resulting smell was quite revolting, so some wafers of activated charcoal were used to clear the air. These devices were dubbed "Dr. Scholl's Odor Eaters."

Benjamin Franklin's followers are always trying to show off and improve upon ol' Ben's experiments, but they never quite had the success of the original "key and kite" format. Don't we all wish they did?

ArtMystery:
The original concept was "My Favorite Venusian," but test audiences didn't care for it much, so it was shelved for a few years before it came back, with some slight changes, as a hit series with Ray Walston and Bill Bixby.
Daleman:
Bruce Rudderman’s secret to the 60-gallon hat was discovered after a violent windstorm.
Geier:
Besides its obviously-cheaper special effects and what can only be called a case of "Antennae Envy," "My Favorite Venusian" simply lacked the gentle charm and eccentric panache that Ray Walston brought to its deservedly better-known rival.
