\nApril 11, 1966…The Last Episode of “Hullabaloo” Airs On NBC<\/p>\n
This is a rare color clip from that final show, with Leslie Gore. Paul Anka was the host for this last show, which featured songs from the 1965 Oscar nominees. “Hullabaloo” was directed by the first director known for his music specials, like The TAMI Show, Steve Binder.<\/p>\n
Although all of the shows were shot and videotaped in color, very few of the color shows are left. Somehow about 45 black and white renditions survive, that I suspect were dubs made for the production company.<\/p>\n
The show started in a one hour format, and ran in pirmetime from January 12, 1965 through April 11, 1966, but three months in it was cut to thirty minutes, and went to a 7:30 Monday night slot. It was replaced by “The Monkees”, and was taped mostly at NBC Brooklyn, but was also done in Studio 8H and at NBC Burbank. Below is the line up for that final night. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee<\/p>\n
