Diver Dan
''Diver Dan'' was a series of 104 seven-minute live-action shorts made for children's television. Made by Brian Cartoons, it was syndicated (mainly to NBC affiliates)〔(Kennedy's TV SF Guide ), accessed 29 September 2007〕 and distributed by ITC Entertainment. The shows were sometimes re-edited into half-hour (including commercials) blocks by local stations.
The series featured the adventures of a diver in an old-fashioned diving suit who talked to the passing fish. The series was filmed in live action with puppet fish; the underwater effect was achieved by shooting through an aquarium.
==Production==
''Diver Dan'' debuted in 1960, the brainchild of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, cartoonist J. Anthony (John) Ferlaine, as a spinoff of his comic strip, ''Fish Tales''. Ferlaine, who worked as an art director at Philadelphia's CBS affiliate WCAU-TV, produced two ''Fish Tales'' live-action marionette pilots. When CBS did not pick up the show, Ferlaine and promoter Martin Young partnered with Philadelphia producer Louis W. Kellman, who with his staff produced local TV spots and film shorts and filmed NFL football games. They produced the shorts over nine months and syndicated them.〔(''Comic Book Resources'' #791 (May 20, 2003): "Oddball Comics" (column by Scott Shaw): ''Four Color'' #1254 )〕
In New York City, ''Diver Dan'' shorts ran as part of ''Felix & Diver Dan'', a 30-minute children's show airing from January 4, 1960, to August 31, 1962, which also included ''Felix the Cat''.〔(TVcom: ''Felix & Diver Dan'' )〕 In Chicago during the 1960s, Diver Dan was regularly shown on the WGN-TV show "Ray Rayner and His Friends" even though Rayner would frequently read on-air letters from children requesting that he get other cartoons.
