[01] This Morning [Premiere]

Host Dick Cavett
Guests
R. Buckminster Fuller
actress Patricia Neal
actor Jack Albertson
comedians Pat McCormick
and Jack E. Leonard.
A snake charmer with a King Cobra.
*Note: News item
Dick Cavett may be the only Yale man to graduate to a daytime television show of
his own. The writer of some of Jack Paar's
monologues, among other TV literary contributions, further advanced his
performing career by making his bow as host on
"This Morning" from 10:30 AM to Noon over the American Broadcasting Company
network.
Dick Cavett's daily opus for housewives looks very much like a trial run of what
might eventually be a show for night people,
a route followed by Mr. Paar and Johnny Carson. In construction, "This Morning"
is a carbon copy of the burgeoning confusion
of talk shows that combine flirtations with weighty matters and straight
entertainment.
Dick Cavett struck a bold note in unveiling his program. His first guest was R.
Buckminster Fuller, the doyen of the geodesic dome,
who is more commonly seen as part of some in-depth study on Channel 13. Mr.
Cavett, with wit and manner held the 72-year-old
design engineer to a few sentences at a time, apropos of a woman's keeping a man
dangling on a line like a trout on the ultimate
obsolescence of politicians by technological advance.
The program was enlivened by Mr. Fuller's contention that a woman is a baby
factory and that a man's role is merely to press
the right button.
Dick Cavett was unusually gracious in questioning Patricia Neal on her recovery
from a stroke and learning how to speak again.
Without pressing the issue, he allowed the camera to show Miss Neal's radiance
and good humor. He also chatted with Jack Albertson
and Pat McCormick, comedians and also finessed the monologue of Jack E. Leonard.
Dick Cavett who purposely makes light of his intelligence, but who clearly is a
quick ad libber, could carve a niche for himself
if the ABC minions do not insist on too many stars and allow him the stimulus
and fun of talking to people in all walks of life.
He has the virtue of being a good listener before phrasing his next inquiry.
Dick Cavett's show ended with a desultory display of handling poisonous snakes,
something Johnny Carson covered on his show
only a few nights ago. Dick Cavett has enough on the ball not to be a copy cat,
which he can control. But he also had enough
commercial interruptions, which he can't.
