I just showed this to my 80yr old mom. she just about cried from the good memories. why aren't there entertainers like this anymore?

There is no one in Hollywood or New York anymore that are capable of putting together shows like this. I miss the LIVE variety shows.

I loved the Dean Martin show. It was entertaining, funny, and he had the greatest guest stars. Dean was the best!!!!

I had the chance to meet Dean in Bev Hills at The Bev Hills Hotel right before his passing and thanked him for his many years of bringing joy and entertainment to many for so many years. He never got over the death of his Son killed in a Calif Air National Guard training mission. He

I just got Deana Martin book about her dad call memories are made of these. It a great book if you want to understand more about her dad and his life. Only read 82 pages today and it had me laughing and crying and glad I grew up in my family. He once made a comment on his roast that "This business is not always easy". After reading the book today I understand what he meant. Made me love him and his family even more ... For sharing their dad and husband with the whole world. I realize how much his family have gone though so Dean could entertain all of us even now. It a must read book for any of Dean Martin fan.

People used to dress up when they went out in public. Nowadays most people dress like they're going to clean their garage--even school teachers can't be bothered to dress nicely. In the 60s, people cared about how they looked.

I never saw her before, although, somehow, I'd heard the name. Now, I know why the name registered. She was amazing. Very Bassey but more so!!

My Mom loved Dean so much. Every time this show came on she watched and that meant I did too though I wasn't allowed until probably 68 or so. Even as a young boy I thought Dean was funny and likable. I didn't care much then for the music of that generation, being madly in love with 60's rock but many years later I came back to Frankie and Dean and now I just love it! KZread is such a wonderful place to relive these classics.

Never watched Dean Martin on his TV show but liked his songs and movies

My mom cried when Dean died. I cried when mom died.

I see there are not that many, die-hard Dean fans left. This show's been on KZread now for 4 years and is still under 300,000 views. Many modern shows get that in a week or less, but you know...today's shows can't come close to the quality of art...that these 60's shows displayed. Dean Martin I found, died on Christmas Day 1995. He was truly a gift to this world, and I would like to think....he's now....a heavenly gift to our Father Above. RIP dear Dean'o!!!

Dean Martin was an entertainment legend. He was just as good with the jokes and one-liners in addition to the music. I was born in 1961 and have memories of watching these variety shows. Whole families would gather together. Dean’s Christmas specials were awesome as well.

Can you imagine someone putting this show on today? I remember watching this when I was a kid. My parents went to bed early ,left me with the TV. I never missed it.

All iconic performers on one show and Diahann Carroll...she looks ravishing!

"The Dean Martin Show" was broadcast in color. This a b&w 16mm kinescope film. In that era it was a practice to create a film copy for NBC network affiliates that did not carry the original feed due to other programming. They would get permission to air the show on a delay, a different day and time. NBC would ship a 16mm black and white film print of the original color taping for the local TV station to broadcast. I used to work for an ABC station in Shreveport, LA and a show that we delayed to another day and time was ABC's "Iron Horse" which ABC broadcast Sunday nights in color. We ran it the following Saturday at 5pm in the afternoon using a 16mm black and white print that ABC shipped to the station. Bottom line is, all of the Dean Martin variety hour shows beginning with the very first 1965 show were broadcast in color on NBC.

I'm of the theory that Dean learned a lot from Jerry; and vice-versa. Dean learned how to be comedic, and Jerry, who could carry a tune pretty well, must have taken a lot of singing pointers from Dean when they were partners. As Dino himself once said (paraphrasing), "The two best things that ever happened to my career were (1.) the Martin & Lewis partnership and (2.) ENDING the partnership."

My mother loved Dean Martin. She had all his albums and never missed his show. I grew up loving him too. My dad was of Italian descent, and did look like Mr. Martin. He would just laugh and joke at least he got the girl ! Cheryl

He did not however say that his dad was a teetotaler If your old enough to remember, adult men Drank and smoked back then. They drank and smoked Allot!

He really was a charming man.
