THOSE WONDERFUL DAYS OF THE TV VARIETY SHOWS, TALK SHOWS, AMATUER SHOWS HIGHLIGHTED OUR TALENT

I remember fondly the days of the TV variety show, shows like Ed Sullivan, Milton Berle, Hollywood Palace,Laugh In, The Dean Martin Show, just to name a few who spot lighted many talents who would otherwise have gone unknown, we name one particular person who has just left our world for the big variety in the sky, Danny Gans...who I am sure would gone on to super stardom. Talk shows that spotlighted talent like the Johnny Carson tonight show, Letterman show, Joe Franklin (famous for making some bodies from no bodies)Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas were all talk shows that spotlighted variety show acts, let us not forget shows like the Origional amateur Hour and shows like that, they are all missed they all brought new talent to our living rooms each and every day. The problem today is they have just about done away with those shows, Its just to costly to have those kind of shows, once a talent gets going TV can't afford that talent any longer how sad is that? I say lets bring some form of it back... Maybe in the disguise of AMERICA'S GOT TALENT...who knows? Wanna make something out of this lets see what you all have to add...
