Where the Action Is
Where the Action Is is a music-based television variety show that aired in the United States from 1965 to 1967.
It was carried by the ABC network and aired each weekday afternoon.
Created by Dick Clark as a spin-off of "American BandstandWhere
the Action Is" premiered on June 27, 1965.
The show was another step in the then-current trend of entertainment programs that targeted the teenage audience by focusing on pop music, following in the footsteps set by "Shindig!"
(premiered in the fall of 1964, also on ABC) and "Hullabaloo" (premiered January 1965 on NBC).
Dick Clark's voice could be heard doing the artist introductions, but he was rarely seen on the show.
Originally intended as a summer replacement and broadcast at 2 P.M. EDT, the show was successful enough for it to continue throughout the 1965–66 TV season, with a change in time period to 4:30 P.M.
Eastern time following the horror soap opera "Dark Shadows".
Both programs attracted a young audience who watched the shows after school.
It was in black and white.
The show's theme song, "Action", became a hit single for Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon, peaking on the charts (#13) in September 1965.
Most of these black-and-white telecasts were taped at various locales in Southern California.
A handful of segments were taped elsewhere around The United States.
The theme song was written by Steve Venet and Tommy Boyce.
Later, Boyce co-wrote songs for The Monkees.
The program had its own stable of performers, most notably Paul Revere & the Raiders, who served as the "de facto" house band.
When the group departed the show in 1966, they were replaced by The Robbs and The Hard Times.
Other regular performers on "Action" included the dance troupe Pete Manifee and the Action Kids.
Individual episodes featured a wide range of guest performers, as detailed below.
Tina Mason was a regular singer being promoted by Dick Clark on the show.
She met and later married Phil Volk, the bass player for Paul Revere and the Raiders, whom she met on the "Action" set.
They married on the second anniversary of the show's premiere, June 27, 1967.
Also appearing were Steve Alaimo, Keith Allison (a Paul McCartney look-alike who later became a member of Paul Revere and the Raiders), Laura Nyro, and Linda Scott.
Ms. Scott had a few hit singles as a teenager in the early 1960s; she was only 20 when "Action" premiered.
Typically, the show featured 2 or 3 performers lip-synching their recent hits with a bunch of teenagers clapping and swaying in the background, and a dance segment featuring the Action dancers.
There would occasionally be an interview segment.
A few episodes featured only one performer, such as Herman's Hermits or James Brown.
The regular appearances of the Raiders helped to promote the band's lead singer, Mark Lindsay, as a teen idol.
Lindsay's face and signature pony-tail haircut would grace the cover of many teen magazines of the mid- and late-60s.
The weekday program was cancelled on March 31, 1967, with the network giving its local affiliates the time slot.
However, members of the program's mainstay band Paul Revere and the Raiders (with lead vocalist Mark Lindsay) hosted very similar follow-up shows; both Revere and Lindsay hosted "Happening '68", a Saturday afternoon follow-up to "American Bandstand", and a weekday version of the same show, "It's Happening", from 1968 to 1969.
Both shows were produced by Dick Clark's production company for ABC.
Dick Clark
Richard Wagstaff Clark (November 30, 1929 – April 18, 2012) was an American radio and television personality, television producer and film actor, as well as a cultural icon who remains best known for hosting "American Bandstand" from 1957 to 1988.
He also hosted the game show "Pyramid" and "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve", which transmitted Times Square's New Year's Eve celebrations.
As host of "American Bandstand", Clark introduced rock & roll to many Americans.
The show gave many new music artists their first exposure to national audiences, including Iggy Pop, Ike & Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Talking Heads, Simon & Garfunkel and Madonna.
Episodes he hosted were among the first in which blacks and whites performed on the same stage, and likewise among the first in which the live studio audience sat without racial segregation.
Singer Paul Anka claimed that "Bandstand" was responsible for creating a "youth culture".
Due to his perennially youthful appearance and his largely teenaged audience of "American Bandstand", Clark was often referred to as "America's oldest teenager" or "the world's oldest teenager".
In his off-stage roles, Clark served as Chief Executive Officer of Dick Clark Productions (a financial interest in which he sold off in his later years).
He also founded the American Bandstand Diner, a restaurant chain modeled after the Hard Rock Cafe.
In 1973, he created and produced the annual American Music Awards show, similar to the Grammy Awards.
Clark suffered a stroke in December 2004.
With speech ability impaired, Clark returned to his "New Year's Rockin' Eve" show a year later on December 31, 2005.
Subsequently, he appeared at the 58th Primetime Emmy Awards in 2006, and every "New Year's Rockin' Eve" show through the December 31, 2011 episode.
He died on April 18, 2012, of a heart attack, at the age of 82, following prostate surgery.
