This will undoubtedly date me, but does anyone besides me remember the PBS series "Meeting of Minds"? :confused:

Here is a link to the complete info: http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/ShowMainServlet/showid-8461/Meeting_of_Minds/
I just bought episodes #13 and #14 on VHS - it isn't avalable on DVD!

WONDERFUL SHOW! I remember watching it in the late '70's. Didn't miss an episode!
If Star Wars is eye-candy, this show was mind-candy!

I just wish the entire show was available on DVD! :mad:
After all, you can get most if not all of the Three Stooges on DVD.
Why would this show not be worth the trouble???
It just isn't right. :(

I remember watching it too, his wife Jane played all the female characters,and Roscoe Lee Brown from "The Cowboys" played all the black ones! Both usually wore REALLY bad wigs as I recall.....

I know having the same female lead all the time was annoying. But there were so many other actors that you got over that.

As for Roscoe, I think he only portrayed one figure. Top-of-my-head that would be Frederick Douglas.

Alexander Scourby as Socrates was not to be missed! :thumbsup:

If not a genius, Steve Allen was one of the most creative and prolific figures in American entertainment. Song writer, musician, actor, author, etc. I marvel at how much he accomplished in his lifetime.

When I was a student in Baltimore he made an appearance at Johns Hopkins. I read an account he gave about how bored and uninterested in current events his student guide was. I thought to myself that I wouldn't know where to begin (or stop) with questions about his life, or his opinions about world affairs...

I have never seen an episode but I do seem to recall seeing it in the listings back in the day.

I too wish these would come out in DVD, loved the ones I saw. At first, there were other females but soon it did become Jane, Jane, Jane.

There were, I have them, a bunch of audio tapes from the episodes, about 20 volumes. They were available from Dove but not sure if they're still available.

Yep. I have one of the Dove audio sets myself! Hope to get more of them.

Also found out that you can buy them from Audible.com (http://www.audible.com), but only for download. Now I just have to find someone with a computer with a CD-burner willing to do the deed for me - after I get the cash together anyway. :devil:

Details, details,
