What's on TV? Monday, November 18, 1968

How do we watch thee, Mike Douglas? Let us count the ways. There are three different episodes of the Douglas show today, depending on the syndication schedule for each station, and I'm struck by the eclectic variety of guests viewers could see on the show. I grew up in the Douglas era myself, but the variety makes much more of an impression today: not only the comedians and singers that one might expect on an afternoon show, but pro football player Jerry Kramer, who'd just written the book Instant Replay, the controversial social psychologist Erich Fromm, and opera singer Richard Tucker. And this isn't an unusual lineup, either. Imagine a daytime talk show with guests like this. Or a nighttime one, for that matter. It all comes to us from the Iowa edition.
