Inception Media Group has announced Christmas With Danny Kaye for release on November 6th.
The single disc release will contain 2 full-length episodes of the hour-long show not seen since their broadcasts in 1963 and 1966 respectively.
It will retail for $14.98, but is available at ClassicFlix.com for only $12.99. Details below.
Two classic, episodic television variety hours – holiday extravaganzas
featuring legendary, all-star casts – come together in Christmas With
Danny Kaye, available for the first time on DVD.
As one of the stars of the enduring holiday classic White Christmas,
Danny Kaye became synonymous with the holiday season. From 1963 to 1967,
Kaye hosted the Emmy Award-winning, top-rated television variety series
on CBS, The Danny Kaye Show.
This holiday DVD collection brings together two memorable Christmas
episodes in their entirety, unseen since their original ’60s network TV
broadcast: the first (aired Christmas day, 1963) features the legendary
Nat King Cole and Mary Tyler-Moore; and the second (Dec. 21, 1966)
features Peggy Lee and Wayne Newton.
Musical highlights include Nat King Cole’s iconic performance of “The
Christmas Song” (“Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire”), as well as a
pair of swinging duets of “Jingle Bells,” featuring Kaye with Nat King
Cole and Peggy Lee. Also featured are solos by Cole of the My Fair Lady
classic “Get Me to the Church on Time” and Lee performing “Here’s
That Rainy Day” and “So What’s New?”
BONUS FEATURE:
- Dec. 22, 1965 Episode of The Danny Kaye Show featuring Danny reading from Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol
