#13434: STEVE ALLEN SHOW, THE (STEVE ALLEN PLYMOUTH SHOW, THE)
1960-05-31, NBC, min.
Dayton Allen, Don Knotts, Steve Allen, Jonathan Winters, Phil Harris, Pat Harrington Jr., Bill Dana, Gabe Dell, Tom Poston

June 24, 1956-December 27, 1961.
The multi-talented Steve Allen- musician, composer, singer, comedian,author- was the star of this live weekly variety series that bore a strong resemblance to his informal, late-night Tonight! Show. Although the program had elements of music and serious aspects, comedy was far and away its major component. Steve had with him one of the most versatile and talented collections of improvisational comics ever assembled. Among the features that were used at one time or another on a semi-regular basis were: "Letters to the Editor," "The Allen Report to the Nation," "Mad-Libs," "Crazy Shots," "Where Are They Now," "The Question Man," "The Allen Bureau of Standards," and "The Allen All Stars." The most frequently used feature, and by far the most memorable was the "Man on the Street Interview." It was here that the comics on the show developed their best-remembered characters: Louis Nye as suave, smug Gordon Hathaway, Tom Poston as the man who can't remember his own name, Skitch Henderson as Sidney Ferguson, Don Knotts as the extremely nervous and fidgety Mr. Morrison, Pat Harrington as Italian golf pro Guido Panzini, and Bill Dana as shy Jose Jimenez.    

Guests are Phil Harris, Jonathan Winters, and Bill (Jose Jimenez) Dana. Final first run show of the current season, and final show and affiliation with NBC television.                                                                                                                   
#29: STEVE ALLEN SHOW, THE
1960-06-06, WNBC, 56 min.
Louis Nye, Dayton Allen, Don Knotts, Steve Allen, Pat Harrington Jr., Bill Dana, Gabe Dell, Mort Sahl, Diana Dors, Jayne Meadows

Steve Allen's guests include Diana Dors, Mort Sahl, Jayne Meadows and regulars Louie Nye, Don Knotts, Pat Harrington Jr., Gabe Dell, Dayton Allen and Bill Dana. Everyone bids farewell on this final live show of the four year series. 

   This program, the last of the series, opens with Allen backstage, where he spots guests preparing for their appearances and talks with bandleader Les Brown. Following this exchange, Diana Dors sings; Allen introduces a repeat showing of the very popular sketch "Wife of Frankenstein," a horror musical starring Jayne Meadows as the bride, Louis Nye as the monstrous groom, and Allen as Dr. Frankenstein; and comedian Mort Sahl does a routine on the upcoming elections, making suggestions about which television shows might be appropriate vehicles for political guest appearances. Later, Allen introduces each of the series regulars and presents them in favorite performances, including Bill Dana as Jose Jimenez; Dayton Allen as Dudley E. Dudley; Pat Harrington as the Great John L., an ex-prizefighter turned restaurant owner; Don Knotts as a weatherman who must ad-lib his report; Gabe Dell as a former star of horror movies; and Louis Nye as Harvey Footlight, ex-Vaudeville star. 
The cast then pay tribute to Allen and present a clip of him as sportscaster Bill Allen in which he falls into a laughing fit which makes it hard for him to talk. Finally, each of the regulars does a spot for Plymouth, including Louis Nye as Gordon Hathaway; and the cast gathers backstage for an end-of-series party.
