I remember when all the weekly shows put on "Christmas episodes". This stopped when reruns became popular because they didn't want to do shows that were season specific. Then in later years, it was avoided so as to not 'offend' any one. I have diaries listing all the variety specials that came on the 3 weeks prior to Christmas. Sometimes we'd watch 3-4 in one evening. I am a senior now, and alone and Christmas can be a difficult time. I wish all these types of shows were part of current Christmas festivities but at least I can watch the old ones on You Tube.
Like you, I am older now and I can recall waiting all year to see certain Christmas shows. If you missed them, you were out of luck and had to wait till next year. I understand Christmas can be difficult and lonely for many, so I just want to tell you, you are not alone. Should you like to chat with someone, well, I'm someone. If I could work my will, I'd crawl into these shows and start life anew. Such an innocent feeling, such an innocent time. Merry Christmas to you, and to whom ever posted this video, Thank you and God bless!
Well I must be in your age group as well because I recall all those things too. I like coming to RUclips and watching the old shows also. Especially the holiday ones. I'm alone at holidays now also. This will be my sixth Christmas by myself. I keep my time filled up as much as I can Christmas Day. I'll get up and watch Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood when she was such a cute little girl. Then watch White Christmas with Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye. Then it's about lunch time followed by a nap. Listen to some Christmas music by Bing,Frank Sinatra, Perry Como. Starts getting dark early so I get out the old home movies from the 1950s and view them hours. Have some Pumpkin pie sit back and look at The Christmas Tree. I have old vintage bubble lights that I just stare at. Before bedtime I'll watch some of those old Christmas Specials on RUclips. Merry Christmas.
Mr. Benny was so lucky to have done this show in the 50s, when you could wish someone a Merry Christmas without fear of being branded some sort of heinous criminal by the freaks, fools, and felons who are now running our country-right into the ground,

December 18, 1960

My guess would be around 1956
Live TV. The stage hand was caught behind Don Wilson as he introduced the closing commercial.
Really laughable
