Everyone knows the first interracial kiss on network television was aired on November 22, 1968, between Kirk and Uhura in Plato's Stepchildren (1968). But the second such kiss occurred only weeks later on December 31, 1968, between Al Mundy (series star Robert Wagner) and Toosdhi (guest star Denise Nicholas) in this episode. Both Nichelle and Denise are extremely beautiful, and no man of any race in his right mind would ever pass up a chance to kiss a beautiful woman.
