Barbie & Kendra Storm Area 51 (2020)

Barbie u0026 Kendra Storm Area 51: Directed by Charles Band. With Jill Bartlett, Ulf Bjorlin, Patrick Bristow, Cody Renee Cameron. Get ready as the dynamic duo turn on the TV and get tuned into a viral saga that takes them deep into the world of Area 51. Combining new footage with re-dubbed sci-fi cinema, this is the wackiest coronasploitation comedy yet.

“The 126 episodes of the screwball situation comedy u0026quot;My Little Margieu0026quot; originally ran from 1952-1955 CBS and NBC. The u0026quot;Vci Videou0026quot; release u0026quot;My Little Margie-Vol. #1u0026quot; contains six of these episodes (150 minutes). I have listed them below with their original airdates. Rather than six consecutive episodes these span the entire time period that the show ran. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe characters are somewhat strange for the period as back then sitcoms were almost entirely about traditional nuclear families (Ricardos, Nelsons, Rileys, Andersons, etc.). This is a notable exception as it features Gale Storm as 21-year old Margie Albright who lives with her widowed father Vern (Charles Farrell). Vern is the standard ineffectual dad of the 1950u0026#39;s. He works for an investment firm and is very much under the thumb of his boss George Honeywell (Clarence Kolb). Their working relationship is very much like the Darrin Stevens- Larry Tate one in u0026quot;Bewitchedu0026quot; as Vern panders shamelessly to Mr. Honeywell and to the firmu0026#39;s perspective clients. This dynamic makes for some nice comic moments. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVern also spends a lot of time searching for romance and when Margie is not causing him embarrassment she is trying to keep him out of trouble with the ladies. Some of the best episodes have Margie teaming up with Mrs. Odetts (their busybody neighbor played by Gertrude Hoffman) to keep Vern from falling for the legion of wily widows in their town. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMargie has a boyfriend, Freddie Wilson (Don Hayden) but if there ever was a romantic side to their relationship the spark went out when the series began. Part of the problem is that Storm was 30 years old when the series started and dressed like a teenager trying to affect a grown-up look. This got worse with each year and I did not really appreciate Storm until she started acting her age in her next series, u0026quot;The Gale Storm Showu0026quot; (a/k/a u0026quot;Oh, Susannau0026quot;). u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVolume # includes: Margieu0026#39;s Phantom Lover 28 Oct 1953, The Missing Link 25 October 1952, Hillbilly Margie 12 Feb 1953, Vernu0026#39;s Mother-In-Law 2 Feb 55, Trapped Freddy 12 March 1953, Buried Treasure 2 April 1953. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThen again, what do I know?
