Lines: 22 I recall one show in which Burt Reynolds came out as the first guest of the evening, complained that he had had a rough day on the set, then stretched out on the couch and went to sleep. The show went on with him sleeping on the couch. Other guests came in and sort of sat on the edge of the couch, trying not to wake Burt. Mull, of course, remained unpreturbed through the whole thing. The announcer on the show was a real kick (his name is on the tip of my tounge--Willard something???). He was forever bringing in guests like the local baton twirling champion or some other nubile sweet young thing. He was also forever trying to take over the show. The band leader (another well known band leader in reality) was partners in a chicken to go resturant down the street and was always bringing in boxes of chicken for the band to eat during the show. Mull still uses the chair and lamp setup in his comedy routines to this day. I thought the show was a gas. T. C. Wheeler .
