Trivia

This show started a media storm in New York theatre circles when guest David Merrick launched into a nasty half-hour tirade against N.Y. Times drama critic Howard Taubman who had panned one of the producer's plays. Phil Foster attempted to defend Taubman which led to an argument between Merrick and Foster. The next guest was Irish actress Siobhan McKenna who then got into a loud fight with both men, and Johnny Carson almost lost control of his own show.
