Reviews
Brings back a whole era of Cleveland television as it sets the historical stage for Ghoulardi's triumph . . . An intelligent media history. . . Enough Ghoulardi trivia to satisfy the most fervent cultist., Anderson wasn't afraid to tell viewers up front that the movie was bad, but could still assure them 'Hey, groups, we're gonna have fun tonight.' . . . Thanks to Feran and Heldenfels, readers can still have fun with "Ghoulardi" on those cold northeast Ohio winter nights, Takes a zoom-lens look at Ghoulardi's creator, both on and off camera . . . chock full of rare photos and extensive interviews with people who knew Anderson best, including Tim Conway, Drew Carey and Cleveland television personality 'Big Chuck' Schodowski, Anderson's successor and one of his closest friends., A scrapbook of trivia for the boom-boomers who lived through it, a revelation for the next generation of tube-tethered America . . . Feran and Hendenfels patch together the G catechism, supplementing their tale with sidelong glances of Cleveland culture circa 1963., Laid out like a pop scrapbook with dozens of photographs, many taken from broadcasts . . . captures a hint of the mania that made Ghoulardi a Cleveland idol in a sleepy era before long hair, drugs, assassinations, war and protests.
