The Roaring Twenties (TV series)

The Roaring Twenties (TV series)

The Roaring Twenties (or The Roaring 20s) is a US television series that aired on the ABC network beginning on October 15, 1960, and ending on September 21, 1962. Dorothy Provine starred as songstress Pinky Pinkham in this hour-long series that dealt with newspaper reporters from the fictitious "New York Record", such as Scott Norris (played by Rex Reason) and Pat Garrison (played by Donald May).

During the second season of "The Roaring Twenties", ABC offered a sitcom also set during the decade: "Margie", starring Cynthia Pepper as a teenager, Margie Clayton. It lasted for only twenty-six episodes, due to low ratings because of direct competition from the Top 20 hits Perry Mason on CBS and Bonanza on NBC.
