The format is desk and sofa five nights a week like the Johnny Carson and Merv Griffin shows. As Cavett sees it, it's the chemistry that counts. His forte:an articulate way with an interview, plus approaches to comedy that range from youthful innocence to the cynicism of WC.Fields. Guest: George Burns June 7th, 1971: J.I. Rodale's Onstage Death As noted in Cavett's autobiography, (pg321-323) on June 7th, 1971, publisher J.I. Rodale, an advocate of organic farming, died of a heart attack during taping. Cavett was speaking with journalist Pete Hamill when Rodale began to make a snoring noise. Cavett's reaction to this is contested-he claims that both he and Hamill realized immediately that something was wrong, while other accounts have him addressing the unconscious man "Are we boring you, Mr. Rodale?" The audience did not realize anything was seriously wrong until Cavett asked (avoiding the cliche) "Is there a doctor in the audience?" The program was never aired and a rerun aired in its place. The following night, June 8th, 1971 (George Burns is a guest) Cavett describes his reaction at length as to what happened during last night's taping regarding J.I. Rodale's death and discusses the incident. An audio aircheck of this opening exists; it is archived in the collection of Archival Television Audio, Inc. (www.atvaudio.com).

December 29th,1969-January 1st,1975 (ABC) Dick Cavett is back on television as ABC's new entrant in the late-night race. The format is desk and sofa five nights a week like the Johnny Carson and Merv Griffin shows. As Cavett sees it, it's the chemistry that counts. His forte: an articulate way with an interview, plus approaches to comedy that range from youthful innocence to the cynicism of W.C.Fields. Guests: Henny Youngman, Dr. Theodore Rubin, George Plimpton, and Bill Russell. David Steinberg is guest host standing in for Dick Cavett. We hear Steinberg's entire monologue. Comedian Henny Youngman does a stand-up routine, and relates about his early years in show business. He idolized Milton Berle. George Plimpton discusses his research interviewing comedians including Woody Allen with his own objective to attempt stand-up comedy on his own. He demonstrates his "act" to the audience. He states the most inventive and brilliant comedian of all is Jonathan Winters. The segment with Bill Russell runs 15 minutes. Russell is introduced by Steinberg. He is persuaded to take a raw shack test (first thing that comes to his mind) by Steinberg. Bill describes his feelings about Wilt Chamberlin and states why he was so great (in a comedic conclusion Bill mentions that Wilt was the second best player, ever). Russell talks about his initiative to be the first person to grow a beard as a player and how he got his reputation. Bill Russell and David Steinberg play one on one...Russell states his favorite shot a "dunk shot." In a brief appearance, Dr. Theodore Rubin discusses his book, "Forever Thin." He states the myths about fat people, and defines "obese psychology." NOTE: Television commercials included. NOTE: 15 SECOND SILENT GAP prior to David Steinberg's introduction of Dr. Theodore Rubin (track 29).

#16744A: DICK CAVETT SHOW, THE
1971-12-03, ABC, 14 min.
Willie Mays' only time substituting as host of a talk show. He fills in for Dick Cavett (Dick Cavett Show). He takes questions from the audience including one heard/asked by 15 year old fan, Richard Jerome, wanting to how Willie felt being on deck when Bobby Thompson hit his famous "shot heard round the world," home run October 3, 1951 against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Mays answers that he was more nervous at that time then presently hosting the Dick Cavett Show. Earlier in the broadcast Willie Mays reads question cards written by those in the audience. Again a question by Richard Jerome who writes, "Which of your baseball accomplishments has meant the most to you, which includes hitting four homeruns in Milwaukee in 1961, reaching the mark of 500 homeruns in 1965...600 homeruns in 1969, and achieving your 3000th hit?" Mays' answer: "Richard, I'd take either one of them myself. At the time when I first broke in I went 0 for 24. So anyone of these I would take." Other questions include "Why are you (Willie) playing ball at the age of 40?" Willie responds that he would like to still be playing baseball at 48. Willie's guest, his former New York Giant manager, Leo Durocher, swap anecdotes with one another about playing and managing during the 1950's. Durocher states that he told Willie Mays who was batting 0 for 20 leading into the World Series against the New York Yankees that if he didn't get a World Series hit, he wouldn't get any World Series money. Also remembered by Durocher his first experiences with Willie when Mays wanted to quit baseball because he was doing poorly but encouraged him to keep playing. Leo told Willie at that low point in his career that he believed in him and that he would always be his centerfielder. Another anecdote when picking up Willie at his place on 155th Street in NYC to attend an important function, he found Willie playing stick ball in the street, and coerced him to get into car which Willie did, but the back seat of his Cadillac, and shouted out loud to Leo, "Chauffer, whenever you are ready." Also, discussed, remembrances of Leo's son Chris who was Willie's roommate for a time. NOTE: Broadcast joined in progress. Commercials for Domino Sugar, Spaghetti O's, Miracle Brush and Bankers Trust included.

May 26th, 1969- September 19th, 1969 (ABC) December 29th, 1969- January 1st, 1975 (ABC) August 16th, 1975 - September 6th 1975 (CBS) 1977-1981 (PBS) A rare appearance on television by Marlon Brando...in conversation. Dick Cavett entered late night television in 1969. During the summer of 1969 he hosted a thrice-weekly prime-time series on ABC, and later that year he succeeded Joey Bishop as host of the network's late-night talk show. Cavett brought with him the announcer and bandleader who had worked with him on his earlier shows - Fred Foy, who was for decades the announcer of The Lone Ranger on radio and television, and drummer Bobby Rosengarten. This new format was another attempt by ABC to compete against NBC's highly successful Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson. Originally broadcast five nights a week. However, by January of 1973, the show was seen only one week a month as Cavett's ratings failed to dent Carson's. Jack Paar's return to late night television after an eleven year absence was similarly seen only one week a month under the new ABC series moniker, ABC's WIDE WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT. On January 1st, 1975, The Dick Cavett Show disappeared from the network all together. In the fall of 1977 Cavett appeared on PBS in a half-hour talk show on which he returned to his strong talent: one - guest interviews.

1975-11-13, WNBC, 58 min.
"The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder is NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE. October 15, 1973-January 28, 1982. An originally scheduled broadcast with Dick Cavett is rescheduled due to Tom Snyder coming down with the flu. Station announcer opens the program stating: "Tom Snyder's got the flu. So, tonight's show with Dick Cavett is being postponed. Instead, we present "Tomorrow In Hawaii" from hang gliding off a cliff in Oahu to a Leprosy colony on Molokai, recorded in August 1974." NOTE: The announcer incorrectly lists the date as August 1974. Four different "Tomorrow Show" segments from a one week visit to Hawaii and broadcast fourteen months prior is integrated into this presentation (Sept. 10, 11, 12, 13, 1974). It is interesting that these tapes were still retained by The "Tomorrow Show" staff for in 1977 almost all the first four years of TS broadcasts were "wiped" and discarded. First up from September 12, 1974, a segment on Hang Gliding. Dave Beinkoff discusses the sport stating that it is a cheap way of flying 25mph on 20-foot kites. A Demonstration is done. Tom Snyder goes to Molokai and interviews people who have lived in a leprosy colony for many decades. Richard Marx was forced to live here in 1949 and Pop Domingo (Richard's father), came to the colony in 1941. They speak of the conditions and way of life during the time when no cure for leprosy existed, until 1951. This segment was originally broadcast September 11, 1974. From fort DeRussy military base we visit with DR. Paul Bragg who since 1912 has conducted a lifestyle way of living on the Island with his "Long Area Health and Happiness Club." A long time vegetarian and nutritionist, his philosophy is "rest is rust," and "waistline is your wasteland." He conducts an exercise class for Tom and discusses his advocation for vitamins, a lot of deep breathing, jogging, and spirituality thru meditation. The segment ends with all singing "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah" but changing the lyrics to suit his purpose and philosophy. This segment originally aired on September 10, 1974. From the final original segment, Sept. 13, 1974, representing four telecasts from Hawaii (September 10-13, 1974) Tom Snyder thanks everyone associated with a fabulous four days/four shows from Hawaii.
