Telly Davidson: TV's Grooviest Variety Shows January 27, 2007

Telly Davidson will present and sign 'TV's Grooviest Variety Shows (of the 60's and 70's).' 'TV's Grooviest Variety Shows (of the '60s and '70s)' is an irresistible page-turning account of TV's greatest and goofiest variety shows of the psychedelic 1960s and '70s. Designed to be browser-friendly, the book covers the main shows of the era - 'Ed Sullivan,' 'Lawrence Welk,' 'Dean Martin,' 'The Smothers Brothers,' 'Laugh-In,' 'Flip Wilson,' 'Sonny and Cher,' 'Midnight Special,' 'Classic Saturday Night Live (1975-80),' 'SCTV' and 'The Muppets.' Each of these key chapters is fast-moving and fun, with quick, easy-to-skim sidebars like "Memorable Moments," "Quotable Quotes" and "Bloopers & Breakups," plus a brisk narrative of the show's behind-the-scenes dramas, cast and history.
