Why "Divers and Sundry"?
Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.

My mom also loved Lawrence Welk but I was never a fan of that show for some reason. Was super popular for many, many years in Minnesota. They played repeats every week. This is one I will pass on--lol! ;)
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother liked it, so I've seen some of them. They became so out of touch with the times.
Delete...one of my least favorite shows.
ReplyDeleteTheirs was a limited niche.
DeleteNow that was fun. I liked the three guys in the green jackets dancing with Lawrence playing the little puppet man. A truly wholesome Christmas celebration ... I don't think anyone could be offended (& please I'm not putting out the challenge!) :)
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering why we don't have more Christmas variety shows and fewer Christmas romcoms.
DeleteMy family just loved Lawrence Welk. I remember as a kid when I slept over my Nana's house I'd have to take my bath before 7 PM when the show came on. I never cared for it, but I always had to watch it. Thanks for the fond memories with today's post.
ReplyDeleteIt had staying power somehow.
DeleteMy parents loved this show.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe it was on for so long.
DeleteOh my! I was on air talent when our PBS station pledged this years ago!
ReplyDeleteFun!
DeleteMy PBS station has him on every Saturday night. I met his nephew who lives here in Wichita. I've never been a big fan of his band, but I can appreciate his staying power.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate a variety of Christmas viewing options.
DeleteI am not a fan of shows. Valerie
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch his show, but I enjoy having a variety of options for Christmas shows.
DeleteI love some of the old Christmas shows - such fun! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteI enjoy those old Christmas variety shows.
DeleteEverything stopped at my Grandmothers house when this show came on. It brings back lots of memories.
ReplyDeletea blast from the past :)
