''Neptune Presents'' was an Australian television series which aired from 3 May 1957 to 18 October 1957. It was a 5-minute weekly series, aired at 7:25PM on Fridays on GTV-9, with each episode featuring a vocalist. Like most early Australian series, it aired in a single city only, in this case Melbourne. The source of the title is unknown (it may have been a reference to a sponsor). Though the series is forgotten today, it represents an early attempt at music programming by a Melbourne television station. On the Fridays the series aired, the schedule also included imported series ''Sir Lancelot'', ''Cisco Kid'', ''The Ray Milland Show'', ''AEI Theatre'' (re-titled US anthology episodes), and ''Alfred Hitchcock Presents'', as well as local series ''The Happy Show'', ''The Pressure Pak Show'' and ''In Melbourne Tonight'', with the station signing off at 10:50PM after an ''Epilogue'' segment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Age - Google News Archive Search )〕 Among those who appeared on the series included Stan Stafford,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Age - Google News Archive Search )〕 and Denis Gibbons.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Age - Google News Archive Search )〕 It is not known if any of the episodes were kinescoped. The survival rate of early Melbourne-produced series is varied, with some shows being completely lost, while some series have at least some surviving material. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neptune Presents」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
