Ironic that we're seeing Danny Kaye's show this week, considering Saturday's discussion surrounding Judy Garland. From what I've read, CBS first offered (or scheduled) Kaye the Sunday night slot opposite Bonanza, which he refused precisely because he knew the toughness of the competition. I have nothing to go on in this speculation, but I wonder - by allowing Kaye to veto that Sunday spot (thereby putting Garland there instead), were they suggesting that they valued Danny's show more, that it was more likely to have a long run without its star blowing up?

Sterling Hayden's busy making the rounds, isn't he? I think he also pops up elsewhere during the course of the week. He's probably plugging his book Wanderer, his fascinating (and controversial) memoir of life away from Hollywood, in which he defied both movie bosses and his ex-wife by taking his children and sailing the sea.

We have an interesting theme developing on some of tonight's shows - on Patty Duke, "The girls are planning a slumber party, but kid brother Ross is not asleep at the switch - he's planning to tape their conversation for blackmail purposes." Interesting use of the word there; usually Ross' actions would be considered "hijinks" or something like that. "Blackmail" puts me in mind of Perry Mason. Later, on Channing, a candidate for state's attorney "knows that his opponent will expose him for having once stolen some college funds." Meanwhile, over on CBS, Rob accidentally overhears what Jerry and Millie really think of them, thanks to Ritchie's toy intercom, and NBC's Espionage has the British government dealing with a security leak of top-secret information. What a suspicious night!

Just a thought - it's a heck of a way to kick off your broadcasting day with Kukla and Ollie, isn't it? Frankly, I wish more stations would do it today - I rather like the idea of starting your morning with a smile on your face.
