Trivia
This program is a rarity because it is perhaps the only existing footage showing Winters being left at a loss by a guest: in this case Art Carney, who spoofs Winters' own style and one of Winters most famous appearances on the Andy Williams Show where he switched twenty or so hats and characters in record time. Carney does a pretty good Maude Frickert, too. Winters does a few of his own commercials including George Washington for Scripto Pens. You get to see Winters doing Jackie Gleason and a couple of good bits. Art Carney also plays Maude Frickert's husband Willard in a pretty good bit involving changing the set on the fly before guests arrive for Maude's 100th birthday. This is an original routine with a few comic unplanned mishaps. The show closes with a talk by Winters about his family while a few pictures are shown.
