In 1950, Born on this day in New York City, New York, was Barbi Benton, model, actress and singer. Best known for her years as a regular on the country variety series Hee Haw, appearing in comic sketches with other cast members. Her record "Brass Buckles" (1975) was a top-five hit on Billboard's country singles chart. She was featured on the cover of Playboy Magazine several times (initially credited as Barbi Klein) and in nude photo layouts.

In 1953, J. Fred Muggs (a chimpanzee) joined the cast of NBCʹs “Today Show.” (Where is talent when you need it these days?)

In 1956, “The Honeymooners”. Ralph is certain that finally, finally, his dream of striking it rich can come true — all for a song. He has been selected as a contestant on the TV quiz show The $99,000.00 Answer. Although his brief, first appearance isnʹt auspicious — heʹs so nervous, he explains “I brive a dus” for a living, and when asked his wifeʹs name, replies “Mrs. Kramden” — he selects popular songs as his category, envisioning a rosy future. “Weʹll be living on Park Avenue,” he assures Alice, “and wait 'til you see how different this furniture looks when itʹs in a Park Avenue apartment.” He rents a piano, buys up a sheaf of sheet music and involves almost his entire apartment building in his crash course. This, of course, includes boon companion — and piano man — Ed Norton, who has the irritating habit of playing the same strange, haunting vamp every time he goes through a song. Come the big night, Ralph is primed, telling the showʹs emcee, Herb Norris, that heʹs going to go every step of the way. Fine, says Norris, and reads Ralph his first question for $100. “Who is the composer of 'Swanee River'?” while offstage a piano strikes up the irritating vamp he has heard all week. Ralphʹs face falls like a souffle. Hopelessly, feebly, he replies: “Ed Norton?”

In 1957, “Tonight! America After Dark”, TV Talk Show, debut on NBC as the second incarnation of The Tonight Show. With Steve Allen hosting his final “Tonight Show” the night before, NBC tries a different late-night approach for a few months with a newsy talk program similar to the networkʹs “Today Show,” but with a band. The concept wonʹt work too well, though, and the show will go back to its original format, this time with Jack Paar as host, in July.

The song was the collaboration of Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, and Quincy Jones, and featured some of the biggest names in music that day including Harry Belafonte, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross, Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Tina Turner, Kenny Rogers and many others. The record raised millions for starving people in Ethiopia. A parody of the song, “We Are The Worms”, was banned from airplay on the “Doctor Demento Show” for several years despite that parodyʹs huge popularity and wasnʹt heard from again until a court case was ruled favoring parodies as not infringing on the original work of art.

ABCʹs “prime 'toon” from producer Steven Bochco about the rats and roaches in the White House, “Capitol Critters” starts on an up note with Max, the country mouseʹs family being killed by exterminators. The series bombed.

In 1996, A classic superbowl ad: “Pepsiʹs Security Camera” Pepsi loves to get a laugh at the expense of its arch rival. In this spot, created by BBDO and directed by Pytka, a Coke driver wreaks havoc in a grocery store after he sneaks a can of Pepsi. Originally, the disloyal driver was supposed to merely peek around the corner after nabbing a Pepsi. The gag fell flat during filming, so the creative team added the cascading cans by stationing a production assistant armed with a broom behind the Pepsi display to start the tumble. The adʹs coup de grace: the choice of Hank Williamsʹs “Your Cheatin' Heart” as the soundtrack.

In 1996, Chris Isaak made a guest appearance on the NBC-TV show “Friends.” I guess they couldnʹt get “The Doobie Brothers” or “Doctor Dre” to appear.
