ED SULLIVAN SHOW, THE - 15th Anniversary Special

|---|---|
| Station/Studio | CBS |

CBS' Sunday night institution of 1948 - 1971, columnist Ed Sullivan presented a variety show in more ways than one, with acts that included ballet, comics and comedians, musical and dramatic scenes from Broadway, rock & roll, performing animals, and the list goes on. In spite of his quirky diction and awkward gestures, Sullivan himself became a celebrity. With the thousands of acts broadcast over its twenty-three years, ED SULLIVAN will always be best remembered as the show that introduced The Beatles to American viewers.
To celebrate the completion of Ed's 15th year on CBS, the show was expanded to 90-minutes for this retrospective tribute, featuring performance highlights of 1948 - 1963. Among the honored clips, The Three Stooges appear in a segment of their "Stand-In" sketch from May 14, 1961.
