mge.tv doesn't give me any information..!?

I was one of the dancers on this show and I was hoping to find someone on this site who knew where to get more videos of the show. Anyone have any ideas?

None of these shows are known to exist on color videotape. NBC duped 16mm black and white "kinnies" for legal purposes, and for distribution to smaller affiliates [or AFRTS] on a delayed basis...

Sammy was on for 16 weeks on NBC's Friday night schedule [8:30-9:30pm(et)] from January through April 1966 {CBS' "HOGAN'S HEROES" had a bigger audience, and that's why he was on for only a short time}. Because of a prior ABC contract, in which he could not appear for several weeks on another network a month after one of his ABC specials, Sammy hosted his first show, then had to sit out the next three weeks. Johnny Carson, Sean Connery and Jerry Lewis filled in on those weeks until his return.

@davidhazard71 - The show was originally in color, but these are evidently B&W kinescopes.

didn't some of these air in color? I saw the Judy Garland and Sammy clip that actually was in color.?
