Crescendo - The DuPont Show of the Month (1956) - Rex Harrsion, Julie Andrews

[@showtunestarpower]

This show is an incredible gift to KZbin. To see Harrison, Andrews, and Holloway when they were in the original run of MY FAIR LADY is incredible. I'm not going to mention any of the other people in the show because I don't want to appear to slight anyone in this remarkable cast. I can't believe they were able to bring all of these people together for a single telecast. Only thing is - I didn't see Ethel Merman. Did I somehow miss her?

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

I didn't see her either. I mean.. you can't miss her.

[@TheJulieAndrewsArchive]

I honestly don’t see here either, but according to Julie Ethel was in it. Maybe Ethel didn’t make the final cut? No idea.

[@showtunestarpower]

@@Bigbadwhitecracker Thanks for acknowledging that Ethel isn't there. I would have loved to have seen Ethel and Julie in a scene together,

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

@@TheJulieAndrewsArchive Maybe she was at rehearsals and then decided she wanted more money? Who knows?

This is GREAT! Could you post the full "Garry Moore shows" where Julie appeared?

[@TheJulieAndrewsArchive]

This show is not listed on Ethel Merman’s IMDB page.

[@Twentythousandlps]

Merman isn't in the credits.

[@TheJulieAndrewsArchive]

Because she isn’t in it?

[@Twentythousandlps]

@@TheJulieAndrewsArchive Of course. Julie Andrews likely got it mixed up with something else she did when she said Merman was in it.

@@TheJulieAndrewsArchive Well ... it does seem that Ethel Merman was in that show after all ... unless this is a mistake too! books.google.fr/books?id=JUzIAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA482&lpg=PA482&dq=the+dupont+show+of+the+month+1956+ethel+merman&source=bl&ots=jr5uXeGyyE&sig=ACfU3U0qCw_UZGUn_FIni8bHEglCOP1CFA&hl=fr&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjPwMeEvarwAhXGxYUKHXqXAB4Q6AEwD3oECA8QAw#v=onepage&q=the%20dupont%20show%20of%20the%20month%201956%20ethel%20merman&f=false

@@TheJulieAndrewsArchive Unless the confusion comes from the fact that she was in another episode in 1957, not 1956!
