An excerpt from this "lost" broadcast.
Tony Randall discusses with Johnny his new record album which includes the the original "Boo-Hoo" classic co-written by Carmen Lombardo. Both Lombardo and Randall sing a duet of the song.
Tony recounts the time he was co-hosting with Betsy Palmer "It's Oscar Night in Hollywood," live from the Brown Derby on April 4, 1960. It was a half hour broadcast where Randall was suppose to interview celebrities attending the Oscar broadcast, including Gary Cooper, prior to the Academy Awards actual telecast. Everything goes wrong for Tony including a last minute decision by the Academy to NOT have any actors or actresses appear before the the actual Oscar telecast itself. Randall relates numerous incidents from that disastrous broadcast.
Johnny and Tony discussing moments when they would forget their lines, actress Carolyn Jones tells the story of John Barrymore who on stage was drunk and forgot his lines. The stage manager feeds Barrymore and his co-star on stage the line. Barrymore yells to the stage manager, "We know the line, but who says it?" Johnny loves the anecdote.
Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.

April 17, 1967 - December 26, 1969
Rare appearance by Betty Hutton in a year that produced a number of life changing challenges for the former great star.
Betty Hutton opens with a five minute socco melody of songs. She tells Joey how grateful she is to have been on his show last month and how her career has been renewed because of that appearance (July 20, 1967).
Hutton states to Joey how she always loved him. A lot of humor exchanged.
Joey asks Betty to remember her beginnings as an entertainer going back to when she was three years old. She describes how Vincent Lopez discovered her...first Broadway musical Panama Hattie and how star Ethel Merman deleted three of her songs from the the show because they were getting more attention than Merman wanted...learning techniques from Helen Morgan, and other great performers of the era...first big song, Rockn' Horse which she remembers the verse...singing a duet to It Had To Be You.
Joey Bishop is the host of this week-night-talk show originating live from Hollywood. The announcer and sidekick is Regis Philbin. Johnny Mann conducts the orchestra.
The ABC Late Night chair had previously been occupied by Les Crane when the show was called THE LES CRANE SHOW, and later by a succession of guest hosts (when it was called NIGHTLIFE).
Bishop gave it a two & half year run but he was never able to beat Johnny Carson in the ratings, and in late November 1969 Joey was fired by ABC. Bishop had one more month to fulfill with the show but decided to walk out, a similar deja vu moment on TV when Jack Paar walked off his TONIGHT SHOW 13 years before.
Dick Cavett then took over the ABC late-night seat after the final JOEY BISHOP SHOW which aired December 26, 1969, closing out the decade of the '60s.

Thirty-minute talk show starring host, Gypsy Rose Lee.
Gypsy Rose Lee, who is generally credited with introing the idea of gab as an adjunct of peeling, is still talking on this ABC-TV syndicated strip now being distributed by Seven Arts.
This show debuted on KGO-TV in San Francisco (the station that produces it) in April and was picked up by KABC-TV in Los Angeles
a month later and is now on WBKB-TV Chicago.
Miss Lee is a greatly uninhibited and somewhat undisciplined hostess, both factors which provide the best and worst of the show. She's quite well-informed and widely experienced and has a considerable knack of showing interest in and contagious appreciation of her guests.
