Kurzbeschreibung
Philip Rapp will remain immortal through his catty creation, The Bickersons, an insanely funny radio vignette that later emerged on TV and stage, and which influenced a generation of Honeymooners-loving viewers. But he was a far more prolific author than that. In late 1958, he pitched an idea for a series called Deputy Seraph, starring the Marx Brothers, which would wind up being their penultimate appearance on film together. Only a few minutes of their scene was shot, however, along with the photos inside this book, and nothing else. The project was scrapped too quickly once Chico failed to pass the medical physical exam required for insuring its stars during the series. Those few minutes have since wound up on DVD, but this is the first public viewing of their entire divine adventure. Around the same time, Joan Davis filmed her adventurecomedy pilot of Joan of Arkansas, about a dental assistant who is press-ganged into government service. But the series failed to sell, and this also ended up being the last appearance of that star on film. Squeegee was a pilot written for comedian Ben Blue around 1954 and filmed in April 1955, about the same time that Rapp was trying to sell the residual rights to the 78 Topper episodes he owned (having directed or produced a number of them). It was his Topper hit that helped Rapp get the funding he needed for several of these later pilots, which failed to catch on. Now, read on . !

"The Television Scripts ... Philip Rapp ... Ben Ohmart (editor) BearManor Media (2007)"
13. Oktober 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
BearManor Media presents "THE TELEVISION SCRIPTS OF PHILIP RAPP" (Paperback), by Philip Rapp (Author) editor's note by Ben Ohmart.
Editor Ohmart is somewhat an authority on the brilliant writings of Philip Rapp, mostly THE BICKERSONS, which also is a love of mine. But as Ohmart remarks - "Rapp was a deeply funny and prolific writer who deserves to be remembered as more than the creator of THE BICKERSONS --- This book should do".
Within the pages of this little gem, 'Deputy Seraph' (1959) featuring the Marx Brothers with Chico and Harpo as a pair of angels and Groucho as Deputy Seraph. About the same time, 'Joan of Arkansas', starring Joan Davis (was as funny as Lucille Ball) who is featured in an interesting role of a 'dental assistant', which didn't fly, wish it would have made it, sounds like a winner for todays sitcom reruns. Now we have the final entry as the pilot 'Squeegee' which the great comedian Ben Blue was the star, never saw the light of day, and did not make it.
Very reasonable and a good value for the price --- For product description and editorial review check this out on the Amazon site above my review.

Big thank you to Ben Ohmart and his staff at BearManor Media, a small press that publishes BIG books. They pride themselves on publishing quality entertainment biographies, so they often put out the first book on unique subjects -- plus specializing in books with nostalgic themes and keeping classic Hollywood alive not only thru his publishing house, but thru his own books.
If you want your funny bone tickled, this is the one.
Highly recommend - a good read! Perfect coffee-table book.
