10-06 1959-5-31-60 1960 (NBC)

Hour-long comedy/variety series sponsored by the Ford Motor Company. Startime is an anthology series of drama, comedy, and variety. A total of 33 episodes were produced with Dean Martin hosting two of them. It was also referred to as "Ford Startime." It was one of the first shows to broadcast in color. 

Dean Martin Bob Hope and an extended incomplete routine skit with Mae West, as Dean hurriedly says goodbye to Bob as he prepares to welcome expecting date, Mae to his apartment where each exchange   some very ribald innuendo dialog. Dean suggests that Mae make herself comfortable as they discuss current television shows. There is an attraction to one another as Dean suggests they sing a duet, "I  Can't Give You Anything But Love." Mae takes it literally with a typical Mae West one liner.   

NOTE: Unfortunately, the original off air tape recording ends without the duet number recorded. However, the little bit of humorous exchange as noted above is priceless as Mae West's only example of appearing on a TV Variety show, in a skit, in her career.                                                                                                                                

Dr. Joyce Brothers, a former academic psychologist who, long before Drs. Ruth, Phil and Laura, was counseling millions over the airwaves.

Dr. Joyce Brothers, as she was always known professionally — a full-name hallmark of the more formal times in which she began her career — was widely described as the mother of mass-media psychology and homiletic guidance she administered for decades via radio and television.

Historically, she was a bridge between advice columnists like Dear Abby and Ann Landers, who got their start in the mid-1950s, and the self-help advocates of the 1970s and afterward.

Throughout the 1960s, and long beyond, one could scarcely turn on the television or open a newspaper without encountering her. She was the host of her own nationally syndicated TV shows, starting in the late 1950s with “The Dr. Joyce Brothers Show” and over the years including “Ask Dr. Brothers,” “Consult Dr. Brothers” and “Living Easy With Dr. Joyce Brothers.”
