Archived newspapers reporting on the premiere of this series indicate that Red Skelton appeared via a live cut-in from Hollywood and delivered a monologue. Gordon MacRae sang 'Tomorrow Mountain.' Janis Paige appeared in a sketch as the wife of Garry Moore. Marion Lorne's incoherent entrances were cited as especially humorous. Eleven (11) real Eskimos were flown in for a grand blanket-toss folk dance.
