Noel Harrison and Bobbie Gentry host a salute to Spring. The light-hearted hour, keyed to boy-meets-girl, features poet-singer composer Rod McKuen (performing his own compositions), Shirley Bassey, Goldie Hawn of "Laugh-In", Meredith MacRae (Petticoat Junction), Harpers Bizarre, and comic Irwin C. Watson. The Hosts: Bobbie Gentry and Noel Harrison. In 1969, Noel Harrison hosted an hour-long special on America's NBC network called Spring Thing. The programme was sponsored by textile company Celanese, who made a wrinkle-resistant fabric called Arnel. Some commercials are contained in his audio air check. Speaking about the television show in 1969, Noel Harrison said: "Everyone in Spring Thing is young, talented, energetic and is blossoming career-wise. My co-host, Bobbie Gentry, has a lovely voice and a great mind and plays guitar beautifully." Unusually, the show was also shown by the BBC in Britain in April, 1970. No Video tape or kinescope film footage of the show is believed to survive.

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.
Guest host: Joey Bishop. Guests: George Kennedy, Fernando Lamas, John Davidson, Helen Gurly Brown, Irwin C. Watson, Gerri Granger. NOTE: This specific TONIGHT SHOW may only contain opening monologue by Johnny Carson. Other content will have to be monitored and confirmed upon order request.1974-04-06, WNBC, 78 min.

June 6, 1974-August 15, 1974. 'Dean Martin's Comedy World' was a summer replacement consisting of 10 one hour broadcasts (pre-emted Aug. 1st) for "The Dean Martin Show," whose final broadcast aired on May 24, 1974 after a nine year run (September 16, 1965 - May 24, 1974). This series was a showcase for comics, known and unknown. Most segments were videotaped on location in various clubs. Jackie Cooper hosted the hour show, which also featured Nipsey Russell and Barbara Feldon. Jackie Cooper was the "anchorman" in the control room coordinating and introducing many of the comedy acts that appeared from all over the world. Nipsey Russell and Barbara Feldon were on location to do introductions from varied locations including Hollywood, London and San Francisco.
