Yesterday, I had reviewed the Christmas ep of "The Dean Martin Show" from 1967 with Dean, Frank Sinatra, and their families. Dean's guests on this one were Dom DeLuise, Dennis Weaver, and Bob Newhart. Dean sings songs-Christmas and otherwise-with The Goldiggers, does sketches with Dom and Newhart, has Bob Hope-whose holiday special preceded Dean's that night-cameo in the door where Famous Stars come through, and once again has himself and his celebrity friends-like Glen Campbell who guested on Hope's show I just mentioned-lists all the charities they're sending lots of toys too. Also, children of Dean's staff are paraded around at the end as Dennis Weaver sings a nonsense song. This was a breezily enjoyable Dean Martin holiday show I just enjoyed watching on YouTube. Highly recommend for Dean's fans!
