1. Welcome back 9 or less weeks

2. RIP: Dick Clark 1929-2012 (April 18)

3. Bob Horn’s Bandstand (Philadelphia, 1956) American Bandstand (1957 first broadcast) http://www.rollingstone.com/music/photos/d ick-clark-through-the-years-20120418 http://www.rollingstone.com/music/photos/d ick-clark-through-the-years-20120418 Bandstand withstood the payola scandal of 1959, ran daily until 1963, and weekly until 1989

4. Other Achievements “America’s Oldest Teenager” Rockin’ New Years’ Eve, began 1972 The Dick Clark Show (1958-1960) Established code of behavior, dancing and dress on his shows But also encouraged teen audience through activities like “Rate a Record” segment, where audience members voted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y9IBwihU4w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y9IBwihU4w Integrated interracial dancing/interaction on TV

5. Move to TV Center of the US Los Angeles Where Dick Clark Productions began presenting variety programs and game shows The $25,000 Pyramid TV's Bloopers & Practical Jokes. Founded the American Music Awards (AMA) as competition to the Grammys Some say it’s more successful because it is directed to a younger audience.

6. Singer Janet Jackson said that "Dick Clark changed the face of musical television. He was wonderful to many artists including our family."

7. Perhaps pop culture leaders like Dick Clark are responsible for all the successful singing talent shows… America’s Got Talent (2002 debut) American Idol (often full of surprises) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4CBLVNG2Q4&feature=fvsr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8P9d0zGZl4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxaTIA93Rgk The Voice X-Factor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkDZK8qQ5ls http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkDZK8qQ5ls Q‘Viva Duets (Kelly Clarkson + Lionel Richie) http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/kelly-clarkson-and-lionel-richie-to-star-in-duets-20120308 http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/kelly-clarkson-and-lionel-richie-to-star-in-duets-20120308

8. How does The Voice differ from the others? Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, CeeLo Green and Adam Levine chose teams of 8 singers from blind auditions (their back is turned). Then, the auditioners get to choose if they want to be on their team or not, kind of turning the contestants into having power over the superstars! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmfiPtavMSs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc6SWd_4rnk&feature=relmfu
