This was very entertaining... great TV from my childhood. I always remember Hollywood Palace as hosted by Jimmy Durante. Thanks for posting... what a hoot!
Thank you so much for this!! David Janssen was truly great, and I just became a fan, but his amiable personality and sweet shyness is irresistible, and he has the most adorable eyes ever. lol.
@CADILLACMAC98 ... Wow, was it really four packs? I know virtually nothing about his personal life, but, well, if he did smoke four packs a day, that'll really do it to you. Of course, entertainment lovers around the world very much enjoyed his acting and other performances. It's a damned shame he was lured into that terrible habit, stealing him from us, his fans, at a much-too-young age.
No one, but NO ONE, complains about contemporary TV programming as much as I do. I've often characterized today's TV entertainment as a "shame," but with these Hollywood Palace videos you've released, I'll have to escalate what I've called "a shame" to "a damned crime of the highest caliber." I'm old enough to remember what decent TV programming was like, but your Hollywood Palace material makes my point with the greatest degree of certainty and clarity possible. Thank you—Thank you very much!
@tonyny77 Actually, I'm surprised Lt. Girard wasn't able to get him then, as he knew exactly where he'd be for an hour.

Such decency, morality and ethics back then, what happened to our society? Too many choices, too many options I guess.

David Janssen was sucking some serious wind, those 4 packs of cigs a day were telling on him even then.

I can't believe that Tim Conway actually made that shot. At first, he looked like he was running for a touchdown.
