This show had everything, the very funny Merrill Davis telling us not only that she is a "too nice Southern Baptist Jew", but also how she was informally adopted by Ed McMahon and his wife. Then I asked singer/songwriter Oded Gross to play one of the worst songs he's ever written and he busted out "The Monogamous Hippopotamus" followed by a brilliant song that purposefully didn't rhyme. That's more than enough for most people, but this isn't a show about most people....so my friend; writer/actor/comedian Fred Raker checked in from San Francisco and shared a small part of his new one-man show "How To Make Your Bitterness Work For You." Nobody does it bitter or better than Fred in this show; he is truly the Carly Simon of bitterness. 0:00-0:30: Opening credits 0:30-6:55:Ed's monologue. He talks about the great show we're about to watch. Ed talks about the many games he plays with his daughter, and other stories from his past. 6:55-12:02: Ed introduces his guest, Merrill Davis. He talks to her about her past, growing up in Florida. 12:02-15:36: Merrill explains to Ed how she has trouble being mean to people. 15:36-16:41: Merrill's video, looking for a sidekick, specifically Ed McMahon. 16:41-23:25: Merrill talks about her celebrity friendships, including her trip to an all-black church with Ed McMahon... and Mary J. Blige. 23:25-30:58: Merrill talks about her stand-up performances back in the South. 30:01-31:51: "Donny Gets a Haircut" video 31:51-36:10: Oded Gross performs <b>...</b>

Phone Call From A Stranger Gary Merrill Shelley Winters Bette Davis 1952

Miss Bette Davis and her husband and father to her children Michael and Margo, actor Gary Merrill, made their fourth and final appearance before the cameras together in this rare piece of TV history that was originally conceived as a pilot for a proposed series called Paula. In the semi-autobiography Mother Goddam, written by Whitney Stine with the aid of Miss Davis, Bette dismisses the pilot for Paula as proof that her career had sunk to an unbearable low. But for fans of the palpable onscreen/offscreen chemistry of Miss Davis and Mr. Merrill, who also worked together in Another Mans Poison and Phone Call From A Stranger and would embark on a highly successful touring theatrical production The World of Carl Sandburg, this pilot is a gem. The show that would have been Paula was re-titled The Starmaker before it aired as a onetime special on the anthology series Studio 57 in March of 1958, and in honor of Miss Daviss Centennial, I hope that you will all relive the sparks that flew between The Merrills onscreen and find out how the masterful Bette could elevate seemingly inconsequential material to a relevant and empowering characterization. VIVA LA BETTE!

MISS BETTE DAVIS gives a memorable dramatic performance in Stranded, a suspenseful episode of the anthology TV series Telephone Time that was broadcast on May 9th, 1957 and based on a true story. Although Bette Davis was not fond of the finished product, her fans will cherish this most accurate portrayal of what Bette Davis might have been like as a schoolteacher forced to protect her children against the forces of nature! This chestnut of TVs Golden Age was helmed by Allen H. Miner, who also directed Bette Davis and then-husband Gary Merrill in the pilot Paula, which became the Studio 57 episode The Starmaker. Wishing a safe and enjoyable Winter 2010 to you all!
