The Goldbergs shares a name with a show that goes back to the 40s. ] Video: newsday.com/television

NO RELATION
Titles the same, but
shows very different

THE HIT Friends (NBC,

1994-2004) Six 20-something /
30-something friends explore life
and love.
THE MISS Friends (ABC, 1979)
Three 11-year-old friends explore
life and like.

BY FRANK LOVECE

Special to Newsday

BCs new The

Goldbergs (premiering
Tuesday at 9 p.m.)
resembles The
Wonder Years in form
but another show in name: the
early, unrelated sitcom The
Goldbergs, which was based on
the popular radio show and
starred Gertrude Berg. It aired on
CBS, NBC, the defunct DuMont
network and first-run syndication
from 1949 through 1955. (Ten
episodes are available on Netflix;
Shout! Factory released the
six-disc, 71-episode The Ultimate
Goldbergs DVD set.)
This isnt the first series with
the same title as an earlier, unrelated show, of course. A handful of
others demonstrate that when it

Gertrude Berg was Molly in the

first incarnation of The Goldbergs
comes to TV, sometimes it pays to
pick up after a name-dropper.
THE HIT Lost (ABC, 2004-10)
Surreal drama of plane-crash
survivors on an uncharted island
having to make their way home
THE MISS Lost (NBC, 2001)
Reality show of three couples
dropped into Mongolia having a
not-so-amazing race home.
