This brings up an idea that's been bouncing around in my head for a while as a member involvement opportunity. It would be very helpful, especially to newcomers, if each series in the collection had a one- or two-paragraph synopsis, saved in a .txt file, to go in the folder with the episodes. The paragraphs would take very little time to write and with many members contributing, it would take no time to get a synopsis for each series. Note, I'm not talking about doing a synopsis for each episode, but for each series, that is, a synopsis for CBSRMT, one for Suspense, One for Escape, One for the Adventures of Superman, etc., etc., etc.
A synopsis should include the following information: The title of the show, year(s) it aired, prominent personalities (writers, producers, directors, actors, etc.) associated with it, and a brief description, including principal characters if appropriate. As an example, here's a synopsis that could go with CBS Radio Mystery Theatre:
CBS Radio Mystery Theatre (1974-1982) Produced by Himan Brown, hosted by E.G. Marshall (1974-1981) and Tammy Grimes (1982). This long running anthology series featured stories of mystery, horror, and suspense, sometimes drawn from literary classics. A total of 1,399 episodes were produced.
Just a Thought...

Thats a great idea. Maybe you can start a new topic about this. Maybe call it something like, club project , help needed. Tell a bit about the project and ask for helpers. The descriptions can be posted right on the topic thread. As they are done I can put them in a text file at the top of the series folder. Such as, 0001_Series_Description.
Thanks

Haven't listened to them yet - found what looks to be a exciting (somewhat) series and looks near-complete. Thought some folks would enjoy it.
I'll try to find some info. _________________ http://otrbuffet.blogspot.com

"US Secret Agent who operated in 22 countries on land sea and air"
1939 series
Excellent sound quality (was one of the reasons why I uploaded it)
15 minute episodes
This Forum has a thread about it - sounds a lot like The Green Hornet (without the bug angle)
