COUNTING SHEEP WITH NANCY BERG
?, some time in the fifties
Cockeyed #4, c. 1956

Don't fall for the clickbait thumbnail like I did. Mention of her and the show comes seven minutes into the video. No clips of the show seem to exist. Nancy Berg was a model who often played “someone's girlfriend” in movies and maybe had one or two lines. (I can't think of a modern equivalent right now. Help me out.) She had a show every night, presumably during the signoff (back when TV had signoffs) for about five minutes, sort of a flipped version of The Continental, where she was in bed at the end of the night reading a book or eating a snack, doing what one would do before they go to sleep, accompanied by the metaphor of sheep jumping over the fence.
A-Z GUIDE TO MOVIES AND TV SHOWS PARODIED BY MAD, CRACKED, CRAZY, ETC. UP TO 1996. THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. SPOILERS AND OTHER NON-SEQUITURS, TOO. SOMETIMES THESE THINGS HAVE WORDS OR SITUATIONS WE DON'T USE ANYMORE. YOU KNOW, 'CAUSE THEY'RE OLD.
