Station/Studio NBC
Host/Star Milton Berle

Milton Berle's legendary comedy-variety show, so popular with audiences it earned Berle the nickname of "Mr. Television." In its earlier seasons it was a Tuesday night institution, one of its trademark gags was Milton coming on stage in drag; each week, America wondered what Milton will wear this week.

The Stooges appear throughout the broadcast, engaging in their classic "three watches" routine with Berle. The boys also do a Foreign Legion sketch with Robert Alda as their commanding officer.
