We had a nice tribute to Wayne (and Michael Cole) 🎸🎹🥁

Wayne Osmond R.I.P. Sorry to hear about Wayne! Arthur Rankin, jr. and Jules Bass Produced the Osmonds cartoon series. Years later Andy Williams and I, wanted to bring The Osmonds into an animated R/B Christmas special, that was unfortunately not to be. #Wayneosmond

RANKIN/BASS' THE OSMONDS

I have been watching THE OSMONDS on two discs and the transfers aren't great BUT it is so much fun watching the show again. I remember watching the series when it first aired. Donny said the group owed alot of their early success to RANKIN/BASS and this series.
