Synopsis
Back in the 1940s--before coaxial cable from the East Coast reached Detroit--television was as local as Vernors, Sanders Hot Fudge and Hudson's. There was room for clowns, bowlers, philosophers, journalists, adventurers, movie mavens, wrestlers and magicians.
The people who put these shows on were drunks, geniuses, thugs, heroes, artists, craftsmen, hustlers, and poets. Some were all of these things at times. A few were all these things before lunch.
As the medium grew, thousands of Detroiters visited Channel 4 to see Milky the Clown, danced on Channel 62's The Scene or tuned in to watch bombastic anchorman Bill Bonds. With the evaporation of distinct local television, a piece of Detroit's character disappeared.
From Soupy to Nuts! is a snapshot of Detroit TV history--from Sonny Eliot, Bozo the Clown, Bill Kennedy, Lou Gordon and Gil Maddox to Al Ackerman, Sir Graves Ghastly, Dick the Bruiser and Mr. Belvedere.
