What makes these clips so priceless is that it often the only chance to see these superstars just being themselves.

They had Class in those days. Something not many have anymore.

I was born in 1979 and happened to come across this show on KZread,it's one of my favorites now. Women naturally beautiful , men and women both dressed so smashing, not a perfect world I am sure of it back then but at least they looked better and dressed nicer and talked liked they were educated.

So appreciate what you wrote. Your comment resonated with me as I too was thinking how beautifully most of the panelists spoke and of course John Daly as well. This was a generation of people raised on the reading of great books and the written word rather than media visuals and videos. Their manner of speaking is refined and reflects education. Generally, there was also an attitude of dressing socially in a way to respect those around you, to honor every occasion appropriately and to at least endeavor to appear at one's best. Today unfortunately a lot of people think it's attractive to act and look as if they care little about life, the way they look, or much of anything else outside of themselves. This is a shame.

I love this, people were so much more natural then, and classy.

I thought Debbie Reynolds was incredibly charming here... what talent.

Ah, Debbie Reynolds! Loved that guest spot! And Ed Sullivan, too! What a great platform this show was for famous folks to let their hair down, have some fun, and invite us all in on the joke.

I am too young to even remember this show, and of course we never got it here in Australia, but it sure is fantastic to see so many stars in this wonderful piece of television history!! And also, to see right at the end the beautiful and lovely Debbie Reynolds who so sadly left us just recently. Thank you for posting this for us all to enjoy!!

All these great talents, especially ERNIE KOVACS, w/ EDIE. I was especially glad to see Gary Cooper & the ovation he got from the audience said volumes to his importance as a Talent, & a top Star of that time. He died in 1961.
