I just discovered TLWS in the fall of 2007. I enjoy the earlier shows especially, but am sad OETA doesn't air more of them. I've never seen a show with Alice Lon, but I'm very curious to compare her to Norma Zimmer.
Really, TLWS provides a neat window into entertainment and social values at a time when America was going through a pretty dramatic transition in those regards. I'm endlessly fascinated (even if I do fast forward through every Joe Feeney song).
Favorite Lawrence Welk Star
Kathy Lennon... I have to admit to having an intractable crush on her circa 1965. And I'm always impressed by Bob Ralston and Myron Floren.
