Teen Memory of Carol Burnett

84 Upvotes

In the summer of 1970, when I was 14, my grandma’s friend Lydia acquired tickets to attend a taping of The Merv Griffin Show at CBS Television City in Los Angeles, where The Carol Burnett Show was also taped. The three of us were part of the audience waiting to enter Merv’s studio, overlooking the parking area, when Carol and her husband Joe Hamilton exited the building and headed for their car. A woman from the waiting audience screamed and took off running after the car, waving her autograph book above her head. They noticed the woman running after them and when the car stopped, the entire audience waiting for the taping of Merv’s show broke into applause.
BTW the guests on Merv’s show were Lucille Ball, her husband Gary Morton, and Ross Martin from The Wild, Wild West series.

Universal had a studio tour as early as 1915 (!), but it was not until the 1960s -- no doubt influenced by Disneyland --that it was expanded and streamlined into a theme park-style attraction in itself.

Lillian Miller (also known as Miss Miller) was probably the only person who ever became famous simply for being a studio audience member. She attended hundreds of talk shows, variety shows, and game shows from the 1950s to the 1980s, and she was often acknowledged on air by the hosts.
