Bob Hope starts the show with a pretty adept impersonation of Milton Berle's act. Milton Berle follows with an impressive Bob Hope interpretation. Overall this is a great collection of footage from Berle's final series. It was produced by the people responsible for The Hollywood Palace (one of which was William Harbach - you can find an interview with him elsewhere on this site), recorded on the same stage with the same crew. The true creative mind behind this underrated program was Bill Dana. To my mind, this latter-day Berle program was far above Berle's much more famous Texaco Star Theater.
