Outrageous!

The story goes that Dean Martin was reluctant to do a variety show because he did not want to turn down lucrative movie and nightclub offers. So he set deliberately outrageous terms: he demanded a high salary and that he would only show up for the actual taping of the show. To his surprise network executives at NBC agreed, and the rest is TV history!
Dean Martin ruled the television airwaves in the late '60s and early '70s with a show featuring a who's-who of high-octane guests from music, film and TV. Dean never rehearsed, smoked non-stop, and always had a drink in hand and people loved it! With his easygoing charm and incomparable talent he was a natural on TV.

Step Back In Time:

The Dean Martin Variety Show first aired in 1965 and remains a one-of-a-kind in the history of TV. A block-buster on NBC for almost ten years, it captivated the public thanks to an entertainer who could do it all. Dean and his incredible celebrity guests fascinated us with songs and outrageous comedy skits. Guests include: Bob Hope, Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Orson Welles, Don Rickles, Dom DeLuise, Don Adams, George Burns, Michael Landon, Peggy Lee, Jack Benny, Nipsey Russell, Rodney Dangerfield, Dinah Shore, Jonathan Winters, Sammy Davis Jr., Paul Lynde, Andy Griffith, Bob Newhart, Tony Bennett, Phyllis Diller, Sid Caesar, Florence Henderson, Duke Ellington, The Andrews Sisters, Tim Conway, Frank Gorshin, Lainie Kazan, Debbie Reynolds, Marty Feldman, Pat Cooper, Gene Kelly, Kay Medford, Eddie Albert, Elke Sommer, David Janssen, Charles Nelson Reilly, Ralph Edwards, Ethel Merman, Roger Miller, George Gobel, Robert Mitchum, Shecky Green, Woody Allen, Kate Smith, Phil Silvers, Janet Leigh, Lena Horne, Zero Mostel, Buddy Ebsen, Jack Jones, Juliet Prowse, Joel Grey, Sid and Marty Krofft Puppets, Lou Jacobi and many more!
Who can forget how Dean made his weekly entrance sliding down a fireman's pole onto the stage, and how he read his dialogue directly from cue cards. If he flubbed a line or forgot a lyric, Martin would not do a retake, and the mistake - and his recovery from it - went straight to tape and onto the air! Now all of those golden memories have been digitally restored and remastered in this exclusive collection featuring rare magical performances by the greatest stars of all time.
