What a wonderful show, so many talented artists and great to hear Victor play a complete composition. Those were wonderful days.

Very rare you get to hear Borge play seriously. Fantastic

[@salvorizzo8671]

Victor Borge is absolutely a genious. Astonished. What a great pianist

[@PanzerMafia]

I must say, I also enjoyed those commercials :D

[@jamesryan6008]

Never thought I'd see Hello,Dolly sung in Chinese.

Never knew Jayne, sister of Audrey Meadows, had such a great singing voice. She was great!

[@cmcb09]

Jayne was a wonderful singer, she and Audrey did a few recordings together. I have transfers of them on my channel. When Audrey wanted to start singing, they always told her we will hire you if you can get your sister to perform with you. Jayne didn't enjoy singing but did so for Audrey. Occasionally on shows like this did a little performance as well.

Dick Tufeld was a wonderful announcer, and would've made a great host

Could of done without the annoying bagpipes and gay dancing

[@jakeforrest]

What’s wrong with gay dancing? Remember this is the era of wokeness

[@elinannestad5320]

bagpipes are better outdoors. That is where they belong.

This unwatchable 1960s TV featuring really bad comics, sexist commercials, reverse ageism, and lack of diversity among the performers.

[@andrewpetersen5272]

At least we.know you are no fun.

@@organisationxiv2927 I am keeping it realistic.

[@AdrianDeVore]

@@andrewpetersen5272 I am still recovering from this 1960s hot mess. Lol

[@AdrianDeVore]

@@organisationxiv2927 I was actually looking at from a historic angle for which I am grateful that American society has moved away from embracing this classic TV garbage.

[@elinannestad5320]

@@AdrianDeVore to what exactly????????? What is better than Borge?
