Interviews from the 1950's and 1960's
Another program I would love to see re-plays is the interviews done by Dick Cavett or David Frost from the 1960's. Also - replays of the Jack Paar or Steve Allen show would be terrific stuff.

Hello - What's your Memory?
Update Feb 2008 - Evidently the GSC has discontinued the program, but I'm sure it will return at some time. It really has a very unique iconic quality that you just dont get anywhere else. Another great program that should be distributed again is the interviews done in the 1960's with Dick Cavett. Your thoughts?
I started the Blog to reach out to other people who remember growing up watching (or their parents watching) "What's My Line". The Game Show Channel is running these episodes now, and they are fascinating. The re-runs of the program (late 50's through 60's) have some great TV and Cinema icons in their prime as guest panel members, or appearing as a 'mystery guest'. Seeing them outside their famous roles is interesting. Many are relaxed, having some fun stumping the panel during the 'surprise guest' segment. Some of the guests sign in as Mr or Miss X, since their name would immediatly reveal their identity, but their face would not.
Some of the recent episodes include Henry Fonda, Gina Lollabrigida, Bobby Nichols.
