Soap Operas, French Lessons & Political Dramas - TV Obscura Vol 2 - January 15th, 1965

January 15th, 1965! We jump back nearly sixty years, when there were only five channels on the TV and everyone was worried about the Commies. Today we touch on soap opera preservation with A Flame in the Wind, government funded French lessons with Parlons Français, and being politically vague to attract the widest audience with Slattery's People!
