These rare glimpses of Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly-Joe DeRita in color were shot in 1965 as live-action scenes for The New Three Stooges cartoon, representing the team at the peak of its popularity. You'll see Moe at his exasperated best as a short-tempered chef, a cold-hearted ice cream salesman, an aspiring dentist (with Curly-Joe in drag in as his nurse and Larry as his impatient patient). as "Dr. Ben Crazy." They also appear as clueless campers facing an escaped lion, sappy sailors and soldiers, addle-brained actors, timid test pilots, moronic magicians, over-eager electricians, witless waiters and horseless cowboys..

This short shows how Hollywood gets ready for the world premiere of an "important" movie. The film celebrated here is Marie Antoinette (1938), which had its premiere at the Carthay Circle Theatre. We see the street leading to the theatre transformed to suggest a garden that might be seen in a French palace. This includes the placement of trees and other foliage, as well as large statues along the route. Grandstands are set up so fans can see their favorite stars as they arrive for the premiere. Finally, the proverbial "galaxy of stars" arrives in their limousines. Fanny Brice and Pete Smith make remarks at the microphone set up on the carpet outside the theatre.

Long before America came to appreciate the talents of Jim Henson and his brilliant creations, The Muppets, Ed Sullivan had the foresight to identify with Henson's enormous creativity and provide him an opportunity to introduce his unique characters to the American public. With Henson's first appearance on September 18, 1966, The Muppets began to capture America's imagination, breaking down our old conceptions of what could be done with puppetry, challenging us to embrace these creatures as living and thinking beings. Not only does this program introduce us to Kermit, we can also see the beginnings of other Henson characters we've come to know and love, including reindeer discussing Christmas deliveries, singing cows, a monster engulfing a computer, and Kermit swallowing a worm. The charm and warmth that captured children and adults when these inventive segments first aired are just as powerful and compelling today. As you will see... The Muppets' charm and lore are timeless!
