Lawrence welk show cast full#

Lawrence wanted a show that was full of good clean entertainment, and he never let anything slip into his program that wasnРІР‚в„ўt suitable for children to watch.

In an age when violence and distasteful humor areР’В prevalent, itРІР‚в„ўs good to sit down to a program that has a healthyР’В atmosphere. It is indeed a corny show, but that is exactly what makes it so fun to watch. Bubbles, colorful settings, beautiful gals in beautiful dresses (thanks to the talent of costume designer Rose Weiss), handsome men in matching suits (or the occasional kilt), and plenty of music makes the show an addictive pleasure to behold. You could come as you like and would always be welkome. Those watching his show feel that they are meeting up with old friends at the РІР‚Сљsame place, same timeРІР‚Сњ to share some laughs, goof around, sing and dance and have a whale of a good time. What makes this show so darn appealing?Р’В Welk was infectiously joyous, as was the rest of the cast. There are thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of Welkies across America who love it tooРІР‚В¦and new fans are being born every leap year. If you still have your teeth, and most of your hair strands intact, and thrive on this wunnerfully hokey show then donРІР‚в„ўt be all too ashamed, or amazed, at yourР’В peculiarР’В tastes. The majority of the younger generation of today would consider the show, and the music being played, old peopleРІР‚в„ўs entertainment but strangely, these РІР‚Сљold peopleРІР‚Сњ watching the show today were young people forty years ago who lamented the same fact. WelkРІР‚в„ўs music has a lilting quality that is delightfully light and bubbly and РІР‚вЂњ almost РІР‚вЂњ tickles your nose. It featured dancing, singing and plenty of band music in all forms: big band, jive, jazz, country, polka, Latin, pop, gospel and, of course, champagne music.

The Lawrence Welk ShowР’В was one of the longest running variety shows on television, running for 27 years and still airing today on PBS.
