Other hosts included Morey Amsterdam, Georgie Price, Henny Youngman, Jack Carter and Peter Donald. Berle clicked with audiences and was chosen as the show's permanent star by September, 1948.

Quotes
[1970] Back in the old days, I could walk out of some of the best joints in New York with a beautiful broad on each arm. Nowadays, I walk out of the supermarket with a shopping bag on each arm.
