Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

When Peacock launched in 2020, the NBC Universal streaming service was basically nothing but a delivery system for The Office. Over the last four years, though, it’s built a library of original programming, other classic TV shows and even a few movies. Admittedly, its film selection is lighter than some other platforms, even while drawing from the weighty catalogues of Universal Pictures and Focus Features. But there’s still plenty to enjoy, from mainstream blockbusters to modern horror classics to foreign action flicks to arthouse dramas. If you just can’t watch Jim and Pam fall in love again, try distracting yourself with one of these 20 awesome selections.

Given his track record of wild, raucous actions on and off stage, it would be reasonable to assume that there isn’t much that could embarrass former Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, but there was one thing: a late 1970s album Osbourne would later call “disgusting” and something he was “ashamed” of.

Back in the 1970s and 80s, decanters were a way to sell whiskey when whiskey sales were on a decline. Michter’s Distillery in Pennsylvania took advantage of the Egyptian craze sweeping the nation in the late 1970s to early 1980s. The King Tut exhibit was touring the world and in 1976 through 1979, it was touring the United States. A young Joe Magliocco, working for his family’s firm, Chatham Imports, remembers selling the decanters in the 1980s. It inspired him to purchase the Michter’s brand after it went bankrupt and the trademark was abandoned.
