Ernie is referring to him taking over the Tonight Show for two nights a week after Steve Allen got his Sunday night prime time show on NBC and cut back hosting Tonight to 3 nights a week.

The honorable Kovacs...Who knows what wonders he would have been able to create and bring to modern TV had he lived.
R.I.P Ernie!

I did a show with Edie Adams (a true and amazing professional!) and told her about my admiration for Ernie. What a loss to television his death was! Thanks for posting this video.

@GGE47 I just saw it.It was Muriel Cigars.

I met Edie Adams in 1966,but Ernie had passed away by that time.She was the one with the cigar in commercials but I can't remember what brand.

@zevsiberiano Back in 1956, people were more used to people smoking. So it wouldn't have been a big deal.

Two great gifted people. I understand that even though there was turmoil in their private family life, they were a very happy couple. It's a shame that Ernie died so young. He had a lot of comedic talent left to explore!

They really should bring this show back.
He was a true original. Nobody knew what to do with him! Great talent.
And Edie was some looker and a fine singer.

Ooooh! I couldn't stop laughing after I saw Edie did the MM impersonation!
Such a cute couple, and a funny one, too!
