You probably don't remember
BEATNIK WITH A BADGE. It wasn't on TV very long; It aired on the
VoxNik Network in the early 60s (which you
also probably don't remember, few televisions having been able to receive the
UMF (Ultra-Mellow Frequency)
signal). Originally, the show was going to be titled
BEAT COP, but that name had already been registered by a (now defunct)
metronome manufacturer. Nothing more is known for sure about the show, which has no remaining copies. The show had been recorded
not on film or tape, but a
bizarre experimental liquid recording media and stored in glass jelly jars; apparently the entire series had been drunk by some
hippie seeking to get "
farther out".
