The Woody Woodbury show (1967). Woody Woodbury, a Florida-based nightclub comic whose style was that of a risque Huck Finn, had been a suitable replacement for Johnny Carson on the ABC game show "Who Do You Trust?" So in 1964 Westinghouse gave Woodbury a one-week tryout as a potential Steve Allen replacement. Woody didn't seem to have the organizational ability needed to pull together the loosely structured talk format, so Westinghouse went with Regis Philbin instead. In 1967, Metromedia made the first of three attempts to dent the chat-show market; the company's choice for host was Woody Woodbury. In spite of the savvy of of producer Ralph Edwards, a healthy number of sales and some encouraging reviews, The Woody Woodbury Show ended after 52 weeks (and at that, it was one of Metromedia's longest-running efforts.
