From 1951 until 1957 Dinah Shore hosted a fifteen musical show which was seen only once or twice a week before the NBC evening news. During the 1956-1957 TV Season, in addition to her 15-minute show, Dinah starred in a number of specials that were sponsored by Chevrolet broadcast on Sunday evenings.
The second series of television Specials was telecast as a one-hour variety show on Sunday Evenings, from 1957-1962. They were mostly produced and aired three times a week. Guests stars would broadcast the fourth week.  

Dinah's guests are Art Carney and Boris Karloff.

 Subsequently, reruns of "The Honeymooners" have aired on WPIX in New York from October 9th, 1958 to the present, a run of over 60 years.

However, little known is the fact that Don Pardo announced the opening of "The Honeymooners" VERY FIRST re-runs on WRCA-TV for only one year, September 24th, 1957-September 16th, 1958.
Pardo also includes in his opening introduction the sponsor, Ronzonni. 

Included in this TV audio air check is the ending of "The Huntley-Brinkley Report" ("...Jose Melis last evening spouted poetry about Sputnik on 'The Jack Paar Tonight Show'...") which precedes the opening of this "The Honeymooners" opening episode, "Brother Ralph"  announced by Don Pardo.

From 1962 to 1966 it was called JACKIE GLEASON AND HIS AMERICAN SCENE MAGAZINE, and featured topical comedy sketches as well as musical numbers. One of Gleason's characters, Joe the Bartender, appeared regularly opposite regular Frank Fontaine, who as Crazy Guggenheim traded stories with Joe and then would change character all together singing a song, after which Joe the Bartender would sing his closing signature song. Sue Ane Langdon was also featured regularly.

Jackie Gleason premieres his brand new series. On the debut show, the Newton Brothers, Wayne Newton and Jerry Newton, make their first national TV appearance. In addition, there is a "Joe the Bartender" sketch with Frank "Crazy Guggenheim" Fontaine, who talks to Joe about "Pay TV."

In 1976, Williams hosted a syndicated series, entitled "Andy." The half-hour show featured puppeteer Wayland Flowers.
