He was either flattering himself, or those were pretty precocious kids in 1945.

Although in both cities mentioned the TONIGHT SHOW deals would continue for another year or so, Group W relocated production of THE MIKE DOUGLAS SHOW from Cleveland, where it began in 1961.<br /><br /><br />Paultomservo56954https://www.blogger.com/profile/16574973421722288825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042603612494762084.post-11662687156237547532022-01-18T09:17:15.020-05:002022-01-18T09:17:15.020-05:00I remember that TODAY guest Ralph Schoenstein wrot...I remember that TODAY guest Ralph Schoenstein wrote for TV GUIDE by the 1980s. I remember at least 1 article of his where he wrote about taking his young daughter to Sesame Place, an amusement park based on SESAME STREET in the Philadelphia area. That part still exists, but there was another Sesame Place attempted near me sometime in the 1980s that failed in less than 2 years.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00483417885845331990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042603612494762084.post-86713728298786755752022-01-17T23:49:56.784-05:002022-01-17T23:49:56.784-05:00Jinx Falkenburg on GIRL TALK.
