Description
Five episodes of The Faye Emerson Show, the Pepsi-pushing broadcast that launched the career of "television's first lady." In "Frank Sinatra," the still-rather-young crooner flirts and enjoys some Pepsi from the B-A-R; in "Trains," Gypsy Rose Lee shows off her son's model railroad; in "Pets," Faye is introduced to a baby orangutan; in "Halloween," Joan Blondell and Duke Ellington stop by for a masked party; and in "Edith Piaf," La Môme performs some of her absolute greatest.
