A galaxy of stars salute their own for the 1958-1959 TV season. Raymond Burr, Robert Young, Dennis Weaver, Barbara Hale, Art Carney, Dinah Shore, Tom Poston, Ann B. Davis, Phil Silvers, Don Hewitt, David Brinkley, Elaine May and Mike Nichols, Walter Brennan, Jack Benny, Donna Reed, Fred Astaire, Louis Nye, Dayton Allen, Don Knotts, Mickey Rooney, Judith Anderson, Dick Clark, Bob Hope, Ed Sullivan, Chet Huntley, and Vice President Richard M.

October 5th, 1956-May 12th, 1963. 

The Dinah Shore Chevy Show was an American Variety Series, hosted by Dinah Shore and broadcast on NBC from October 5th, 1956- May 12th, 1963.

                                                              

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. 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 1970s, 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.

Host Barbara Walters interviews Sir Laurence Olivier, John Ritter, James Garner, and Kenny Rogers.    

Kenny Rogers remembers the hard times, and his broken marriages and estranged children, recalled in a conversation joined by his current wife, Marianne Gordon of "Hee Haw. 

Memories also key this Barbara Walter's Special with James Garner
whose reflections on an embattled career seem as relaxed and candid as a camera commercial.

John Ritter shatters his "Three's Company" images as a womanizer, and emerges unselfconscious as a tender and proud new father, and devoted family man. 

Walters concludes with her interview of "the preeminent theatrical figure of the 20th century" - Lord Olivier - who reveals his difficult professional relationship with Marilyn Monroe (costar in the 1957 film "The Prince and the Showgirl"), and sums up his own talent as "know-how {to} disguise technique.
