October 2, 1956 - June 25, 1957
Jonathan Winters starred in a 15 minute television series for NBC airing each Tuesday evening from 7:30pm - 7:45pm. Assisting him on his comedy blackout sketches was announcer Don Pardo until late March 1957 when Wayne Howell succeeded him.
In a sketch, Jonathan plays a pioneer leader as well as many other characters including adding sound effects, clearing land with his party of 20 settlers, building log cabins at first until realizing that they have built too many and thus call their settlement "Levittown Kansas Settlement." The pioneers brave an indian attack as leader Winters tells all to save one bullet for their wives.
Don Pardo is the narrator during the sketch adding tidbits of information.
Jonathan signs off at the end of the show with his famous sound effects departure via his flying saucer as he says good night to guest Steve Lawrence whom we only hear briefly.
