TV Review: Mr. Ed. 1960s Sitcom

TV’s most famous horse is probably Mr. Ed, a talking Palomino who was the star of CBS 1960s sitcom. Ed lives with Wilbur, an architect who decides to move from the city to get closer to nature. Ed decides Wilbur is a human worth talking to, and most of the fun comes from the fact that Ed will only talk to Wilbur. Naturally, this leads Wilbur into a lot of tight spots when Wilbur’s behavior leads his wife, in-laws and neighbors to think he is very strange. Mr. Ed, Seasons 1-5 are available on DVD, or you can catch the episodes on Hulu. Tune in; it’s definitely worth it to see a horse “talk” without special effects.

Beautiful Browbands

Materials you’ll need:

• Pompom fringe (normally used for decorating pillows and curtains) • Flat-backed rhinestones • Water-resistant glue that works with these materials • A browband

Useful tools:

• Scissors • Measuring tape

Here’s how (pompom):

• Measure the browband and cut the band with the yarn a little shorter • Apply glue to the pompom fringe and press it down hard on the browband • Let it dry before you use it

Here’s how (gem):

• Measure to find the middle of the browband and apply some glue there • Fasten the largest gem to the glue, right in the middle of the browband • Put small dollops of glue on the rest of the browband, evenly spaced • Press the smaller stones into each dollop of glue • Let it dry before you use it
