I think that the first TV show I ever saw was "The Groucho Show"... along with "Topper" and "Mighty Mouse". On the last, I've got to admit I considered the operatic passages rather dreary.

"The Groucho Show", was that his talk show or late, renamed episodes of "You Bet Your Life"? I've only seen clips.

Some future dog will likely be named "Groucho". And if I ever get a yellow labradoodle (half poodle, half labrador retreiver) that will be "Harpo".

Nice to meet you.

His 1956 early morning variety show. I was four years of age at the time. (Hadn't started school yet. Was still allowed to stay home and watch daytime TV.) It included "You Bet Your Life" segments and "King/Queen For A Day" segments. I was very taken with his eye rolling routines.smiley - smiley
