Meet The O’Briens – Failed 1950s TV Pilot Starring Dave O’Brien and Jeff Donnell (1954)

DVD: www.amazon.com thefilmarchived.blogspot.com Dave O’Brien (May 31, 1912 — November 8, 1969) was an American film actor, director and writer. Born David Poole Fronabarger in Big Spring, Texas, O’Brien started his film career in bit parts before gradually winning larger roles, mostly in B pictures. O’Brien became familiar to movie audiences in the 1940s as the hero of the famous MGM comedy short film series Pete Smith Specialties narrated by Pete Smith. O’Brien wrote and directed many of these subjects under the name David Barclay. He also appeared in many low-budget Westerns, often billed as ‘Tex’ O’Brien, alluding to his home state. To modern audiences, he is most likely best to be remembered as a frantic dope addict in the low-budget exploitation film Reefer Madness (1936), yelling “Play it faster, play it faster!!” to a piano-playing girl. He appeared in Queen Of The Yukon (1940) as Bob Adams. In 1940, he appeared in The Devil Bat as part of a comedy team with Donald Kerr. They also appeared together in Son of the Navy (1940) and The Man Who Walked Alone (1945). In 1942, O’Brien starred in the movie serial Captain Midnight. One of his later roles was in the film musical version of Kiss Me, Kate (1953), a rare featured role for the actor in an ‘A’ list big-budget production. O’Brien married one of his co-stars of Reefer Madness, Dorothy Short, in 1936, but they divorced in 1954 after having two children. In 1955, he married Nancy O’Brien and had three more children …

The helicopter was developed by Bell Helicopter to meet the United States Army’s requirement for a medical evacuation and utility helicopter in 1952, and first flew on 20 October 1956.

The Lone Gunman, Pilot Episode (Air Date: March 4, 2001)

On March 4, 2001, Rupert Murdoch’s FOX Television aired the pilot episode of an X-Files spin-off series called “The Lone Gunman” (The title is taken from the name of a team of investigative reporters’ government watchdog newspaper). The program depicts a staged hijacking of a passenger aircraft by a hostile faction in the US Government, who take control of the plane by remote control and attempt to fly it into one of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. The reason given for this false-flag operation is explained below by John byers’ father Betranm, a government insider who’s recently discovered the plot, but is reluctant to expose it to the rest of the world… ———————————- John Byers: What is Scenario 12-D? We know it’s a war game scenario, that it has to do with airline counter terrorism. Why is it important enough to kill for? Bertram Byers: Because it’s no longer a game. John Byers: But if a terrorist group wants to act out this scenario, then why target you for assassination? Bertram Byers: Depends on who your terrorists are. John Byers: The men who conceived of it in the first place. You’re saying our government plans to commit a terrorist act against a domestic airline? Bertram Byers: There you go, indicting the entire government as usual. It’s a faction. A small faction. John Byers: For what possible gain? Bertram Byers: The Cold War’s over, John. But with no clear enemy to stockpile it against, the arms markets flat. But bring down a …
