Cooper's Piano-Playing TV
Angel Couldn't Get Sponsor
Jackie Cooper tiied to put an angel on television but never cot
off the ground. b
Cooper, star of CBS-TV s Hennesey" series, produced a pilot
film for another show called “Charley Angelo,” an angel nosing
as a woriaiy piano piayer.
“Everybody liked it but they were
scared.” said Cooper. “The show
was about an angel in an ivy
league suit. He’s a piano player, a
hip angel.
“It was a left field idea and spon
sors got scared. I heard people say
“Somebody with guts ought to buy
it.’ But nobody had the guts to
do so.”
Sitting in his office near the
“Hennesey” set where he plays a
Navy doctor. Cooper insisted there
is nothing offensive about the idea
of bringing an angel down to earth.
“There were no scenes of Heaven
or clouds,” he said. “It was a come
dy show with some drama.”
Cooper had Jimmy Komack, also
on “Hennesey," portray the role of
the piano-playing angel embodied
in “Charley Angelo.” Larry Storch
was "Dan Devlin,” the devil's emis
sary.
The earthbound angel received his
Heavenly instructions from a voice
which came out of a shaft of light.
Cooper took the film show to
New York and called on advertis
ing agencies, looking for a sponsor.
He met with a stream of refusals.
“When the word got out that a
sponsor turned it down, other ad
vertising agencies wouldn’t touch
it," he said. “The sponsors were
afraid of offending somebody.”
Cooper spent S60.000 on the film
and wouldn't give up. He took the
film to another city and previewed
it over a local television station,
asking viewers to phone in their
opinions.
“It got marvelous response,”
Cooper said. “There were 4,173 yes
votes and 524 no votes. And there
were thousands of calls that weren’t
recorded because the phone lines
to the station were busy.”
Jackie went Pack to the advertis
ing agencies hoping his poll would
win the day. But his angel was
still not allowed air time.
“They were impressed.” said
Cooper,( “But they couldn't get past
the sponsors.”
Cooper put “Charley Angelo”
away and settled back to starring
in “Hennesey,” which is being
picked up for another season.
stars Laurence Olivier.
Buzz Kulik, signed by Bob Ban
ner Associates to direct their "Kings
of Broadway” series on NBC-TV

Slam," which will star Murry Ham
ilton.
NBC will have a new children's
show beginning Sept. 22, to be
