you bet. but my favorite (most of you are too young to remember) was jackie gleason, from miami. frank fontaine. june taylor dancers. the best.
I watched the Jackie Gleason Show with my parents all the time, back in the mid-60s to when it ended in 1970. Like you said: "The best."
That's back when TV knew how to do a variety show, and everyone loved watching variety shows. Sigh. Those were the days.
