ABC

US Music Variety Show 1948 5 episodes x 60 min
with Maggi McNellis
Short lived variety program set in an imaginary nightclub
*Note: Carl Reiner remembered the show. The room was set up like a nightclub.
There were people sitting at a table,
and she would come over and talk to you. It was half an interview show and then
you would get up and do something.
There was no nightclub like that in the world. They paid you $125, which seems
like a lot for five minutes' work,
but it really wasn't because a lot of people were seeing it, and you were
ruining your act for club dates.
