Donny & Marie Show guests Ruth Buzzi and Johnny Dark

[TruSlack]

Do you know when this was first aired? I just found a batch old reel-to-reel video Donny and Marie shows and one them had this clip in it. The opening song of the episode was "Chatanooga Choo-choo"

I love the Osmonds, the whole, entire family. They were so good to us when we guest starred on their show; nobody in the entertainment business was better to the guests. These were fun shows!

I can still remember watchin' Donny & Marie as a Teenager with my Kirstinie and we were both absolutely LAUGHIN' SO HARD and ROTFL over Ruth Buzzi's Classic Slapstick with a Mustached Johnny Dark, Marie and Donny's 1970's Cool Fashion Wardrobe. God Bless the 1970's 4 LIFE!!!!

Idea taken from an old I Love Lucy episode which was taken from an old Vaudeville number. It works here thanks to the genius of two talented ladies.

Ruth Buzzi was sooo funny. I used to have a doll with her voice in the mechanism.....it wasn't a Ruth Buzzi doll, they had just used her voice.....odd. Marie really got the giggle here. Thanks.

Ruth Buzzi was my favourite of all the guests on the Donny & Marie Show - she just had funny bones through and through!

Ruth Buzzi is the best--so funny, energetic, and professional. She's so underrated as a comedienne.

[banner74]

Would I also be correct in saying that Johnny "Dark" is also known for being a kiddie show host in the Detroit/Toledo area in the'50s and '60s by the name of Johnny Ginger?

[zoomix]

No, This Johnny Dark is From the Philadelphia area originaly and is now frequently on David Letterman.

[SSDILLOW]

That's why Ruth Buzzi is legendary.
