    3 Big Guest Stars

    Nanette Fabray, Don Rickles and Mel Torme, Vicki does not appear. This is not one of the best episodes. No Q&A, Carol introduces Rickles as the best dressed man in show biz, Lyle is also introduces. Don does some handsome jokes to Lyle.

    Carol and Nanette play pregnant women in a doctor's office, Lyle is the young good looking assistant doctor.

    Mel Torme sings a song called Take A Letter Miss Jones to his secretary.

    Rickles plays an insulting shoe salesman. Harvey the store manager who threatens him with firing. Nanette is a tough customer. Harvey breaks up at Rickles ad libs.

    The finale is a good musical spoof of Tin Pan Alley. Mel and Carol are songwriters. Don is a music publisher. Nanette plays a Broadway star and Harvey a producer. Nanette corrupts Mel, Carol has a funny drunk scene on a piano. There is a funny punchline to the sketch.

    Carol sings her theme, the guests sign her book and some fake snow gets dumped on the cast.
