An in-depth and personal look at the most popular and best-remembered local shows from the golden years of Detroit TV Long before cable, prepackaged syndication, infomercials, do-it-yourselfers, and reality shows cluttered the television dial, there was a brand of entertainment that has today nearly vanished from the airwaves: local TV. And with its colorful and quirky cast of characters, Detroit TV arguably offered some of the best of the best of local programming anywhere in the nation-a smorgasbord of exuberant, one-of-a-kind television shows. Based on actual interviews with the people who made Detroit TV, Gordon Castelnero's TV Land-Detroit awakens the emotional attachment and nostalgia our community has for these shows, bringing the beloved characters and memorable programs back to life. From the glamorous Rita Bell to the insanity of the Ghoul, the zany Jingles in Boofland to the opinionated and often confrontational Lou Gordon and the gruff-voiced and somnolent George Pierrot, Castelnero reacquaints us with the talent and behind-the-scenes people, of the creative spirit in Detroit, and the intimacy they shared with the community both on and off the air. Gordon Castelnero was a producer at WNIC radio for four years. He produced the acclaimed documentaries for WDIV and WTVS, Michigan, It Started Here Michigan and the American Dream, and Titanic: The Final Chapter. He currently lives in Livonia, Michigan, and works at Technicolor in DVD and game media distribution. He can be contacted by e-mail at [email protected]Binding Type: Paperback

Nice watch

Great watch! Looks nice and could tell it was made very well. The only down side is it can be easily come un clipped while on your wrist.

Could not be happier. :)
Color: Blue Dial & Two tone strap, Color: Blue Dial & Two tone strap
I am in love with this watch, I went to a jeweler to have the band sized, as soon as I handed it to him I was given a compliment by the jeweler on the watch :) I did expect the face of the watch to be a bit bigger, but this is in no way a complaint! It really does have a nice weight to it, and I love the leather case it came in, really nice to keep the watch in when not wearing it like at night, or the shower. Beautiful craftsmanship!

Awesome Watch!
Color: Black strap & black dial
This watch exceeded my expectations. I purchased it for my grandson as a high school graduation present (he’s going to college to become a pilot). The watch is gorgeous and he is so proud of it.
