I had seen Follies twice, so Rolph was the person in the show I was especially excited to see. In 1973, boomers (like me) in our early 20s didn't really know Alice Faye very well from TV. Though I did know the film, and "Varsity Drag." Stubby Kaye was sort of musical theater history, but the two stars were from our parents' generation. Makes sense that the post above would have been a night out for older folk.

Boomers knew John Payne every Christmas from "Miracle on 34th Street", even if his other films weren't shown that much pre-TCM channel. Most old movies on television ran very late at night and were chiefly from MGM. There were some Universal horror movies and some Abbott and Costello films and some Shirley Temple films from Fox and some other exceptions, but most old films shown were from MGM.
