The Dean Martin Show - December 14, 1967

The way The Dean Martin Show was meant to be aired.

[@greggjohnsonthewatchman796]

When my Mom packed us up in minnesota and arrived to our new rental apartment in glendale, ca she started taking me and my brother to many, many tapings of what are now classics today and of course OUR favorite was being in the audience of this iconic NBC tv show The Dean Martin Show, where Mr Martin was given a 3 year contract for year's 2, 3 and 4 for an astounding $34 million dollars plus lots of stock in some hot company on wall street plus no rehearsals, ever! My mom is currently 94 years old and I Love sending her copies of the shows we used to go to and watch! If any show allowed a live studio audience? Believe me, I know my mom brought us to at least one of the tapings! Even the iconic Bob Hope Christmas Specials! And the time I remember most was when I had to go pee real bad so I was walking down the aisle, heading for the bathroom, and did so during mr hopes longggg monologue... when all of a sudden I hear mr hope call me out by saying, "what's wrong, you couldn't wait till my monologue was over"? Embarrassed, I went to turn around to go back to my seat, when all of a sudden I hear him laughing followed by the entire place cracking up! Mr hope said, "son, I'm only joking, please don't stop when mother nature calls!" We no longer live in California and we got out just in time, right before all the greatness faded away like this show and many others from the 60s and 70s. I thank you all for reading my 100% true life story and thank you to my mom who raised 5 of us strong headed kids. Love and peace to you all.. In Jesus Name! Amen

Wow! What a great mom you had to expose you to all that legendary entertainment. Good for you. That was a special time we’ll never see again.

If you couldn't get to Vegas, The Dean Martin Show brought Vegas to you......long live Dean

[@shirleythompson6457]

Had to save this when I noticed the date 12/14/67, my husband’s 27th birthday. We had an 8+ month old sweet baby boy and probably stayed home and watched this very show. We liked Bob Newhart a lot too. No Dean was not drunk or stoned, we found out later it was all part of the act which he had perfected. Nobody got to the top of so many professions and made the $$$ he did while drunk or stoned. Check it out, he was really multi-talented and entertained us in many ways for many years. Left us 12-25-95 and he is still missed by so many. RIP MR. COOL. You were the BEST!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I was about to turn 5, and I'm sure I was watching because my dad never missed Dino.

Dean Martin is one of those people you just miss. Like Bob Hope and other great entertainers of past. Guy Marks was hilarious. He did an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show titled "Jilting the Jilter" that's just incredible. Too bad there's no talent today to do variety shows. They're sorely needed.

[@richardkirk5098]

Yes.

[@gregsawka201]

Dean was so cool; he always gave the impression that he was having a great time. Whether you liked him or not really didn't matter to him, he was just having a ball. So loose, relaxed and effortless. Oh yeah; that Caterina Valente sure had a voice! Great performer!

[@scvandy3129]

Guy Marks played Pink Cloud, one of the three regular characters on Tim Conway's 1967 comedy western "Rango" (one of producer Aaron Spelling's early efforts, in his partnership with Danny Thomas) that ran on ABC. I'll guess Marks thought enough of the live and home audience would be familiar with "Rango" that it was logical to use Pink Cloud as his character's name in this skit -- full of spot-on impersonations. . . . My how the color and clarity of these "Dean Martin" prints are spectacular. With all the advances in video (and audio) we're definitely seeing them better today than half a century ago on that era's state-of-the-art color television sets.

[@Matto2t]

DeansPalley You are right. The shows of today are not even close to being enjoyable. Sitcoms with bland humor and lack of audience are not to be considered watchable now or ever. To me, the 60s, 70s and 80s are the eras with lots of wonderful shows that people watched and enjoyed. But since the 90s, TV shows went downhill and starting in 2000, everything became just reality garbage that nobody pays attention to. Some people don't know how to make good TV programs today.

My high school history teacher played 'Abraham Lincoln's Press Agent' from Bob Newhart's first comedy album to a class of fifteen / sixteen-year old male students. In minutes, that routine had a bunch of oh-so-cool adolescent wise-asses literally falling on the floor gasping for air from laughing so hard. Later, when I became an adult, Newhart did a benefit show for a local hospital at a century-old former women's guild meeting venue called the Sheldon in St. Louis, and I was fortunate to get a ticket in the balcony seating area. Newhart simply walked on stage, and the entire audience on both levels immediately stood and gave him a standing ovation. Funny is ageless AND timeless.
