Sid Melton (May 22, 1917 – November 2, 2011) was an American actor, best known for his roles as incompetent carpenter Alf Monroe in the CBS sitcom "Green Acres" and as Uncle Charlie Halper, proprietor of the Copa Club, in "The Danny Thomas Show" and its spin-offs.  He appeared in about 140 film and television projects in a career that spanned nearly 60 years.  Among his most famous films were "Lost Continent" with Cesar Romero, "The Steel Helmet" with Gene Evans and Robert Hutton, "The Lemon Drop Kid" with Bob Hope, and "Lady Sings The Blues" with Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams.  He was a regular on "The Danny Thomas Show" and "Green Acres", and appeared in flashback on several episodes of "The Golden Girls" as Salvadore Petrillo, the long-dead husband of Sophia and father of Dorothy. The first season of the American television comedy series The Golden Girls originally aired on NBC in the United States between September 14, 1985 and May 10, 1986.  Created by television writer Susan Harris, the series was produced by Witt/Thomas/Harris Productions and Touchstone Television.  It stars Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan, Betty White, and Estelle Getty as the main characters Dorothy Zbornak, Blanche Devereaux, Rose Nylund, and Sophia Petrillo.  The series revolves around the lives of four elderly women living together in a house in Miami. Hollywood on Television was a five-and-a-half-hour, six-day-a-week live television talk show starring newcomer Betty White and radio disc jockey Al Jarvis that ran from 1949 to 1953.  When Jarvis left the show in 1951, film star Eddie Albert took his place and co-hosted with White for six months until thirty-three and a half hours of live ad-lib television per week, featuring just the two of them, took its toll and he also resigned.  White was then hosting the show alone, and is believed to have been the first female television talk show host as a result.  After a period of White talking directly into the camera lens for hours at a stretch, the show began accepting guests to interact with her as well as gradually incorporating scripts and sketches.  Similarly to Jackie Gleason's "Honeymooners" sketches on the Dumont Network during the same era, recurring sketches involving White as a housewife named Elizabeth caught on with the viewers to the point that expanding the sketches into a half-hour sitcom appeared to be the obvious next step.  Series pianist George Tibbles began writing the sketches.  Studio producer Don Fedderson, Tibbles and White formed a production company called "Bandy Productions," named after Betty White's dog Bandit, and White changed over to a half hour sitcom format based on the Elizabeth sketches entitled "Life With Elizabeth", which ran in syndication for two years and sixty-five episodes.  Across the decades, White would use the skills she had honed on "Hollywood on Television" by hosting her own talk show in 1954 and subsequent variety series as well as starring in numerous sitcoms, including "Date with the Angels", "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", "The Betty White Show", "The Golden Girls", "The Golden Palace" and "Hot in Cleveland", as well as hosting the 2012 prank show "Betty White's Off Their Rockers", which began airing 63 years after the premiere of "Hollywood on Television".
