I just watched an oddity of sorts...a Kraft Music Hall from 67 hosted by,...Woody Allen. I wouldn't associate the two, even in this time frame, but he did sketch comedy as a Shirley Temple-type child star, and a take-off on Bonnie and Clyde...and talked 60s politics with William F. Buckley (?). sort of an interesting little time capsule, complete with mini skirt dilemma. If you want to see it, here's a link (Uncle Earl's site) https://www.solie.org/alibrary/KraftMusicHall_WoodyAllenLooksat1967.html
