One-hour variety show starring Bob Newhart when he was known for his hilarious "Button-Down" comedy albums (Bob Newhart was an accountant before he became a comedian).
Great musical guests, a large group of repertory players and opening monologues that had Newhart 'on the phone' with different historical characters were regular features. Sounds like a winner to me! The critically acclaimed series won an Emmy and a Peabody award, but won few viewers away from 'Naked City' on ABC. |
