Do You Remember The Cinema Serials
You have all heard of the soapy serials on Tv, well long before that the cinemas had what is called a movie serial (action/adventure) back even to the silent era in 1914 when you had 'Perils of Pauline' right up to the last serials in 1956, 'Blackhawks' the idea was they would create these cliffhangers to support main cinema features to draw people back each week to see what happened to there favourite hero when he is left in a precarious situation, the same idea was also used in radio serials that were transmitted on airwaves, another form was the newspaper comics, they all had the same roots, can you recall any of these old serials, a lot came to Tv in the 1960's and even later years in many parts of the world, most serials were in 12 or 15 chapter formats and ran from 15-20 minutes in length. So let's take a nostalgic look back in time on this fun blog.

They were great. I remember some Knight serials and some cowboy serials. But I don't remember their names (titles)!
