Overview: Fabray, Tormé and Rickles sounds like a law firm, one that specializes in entertainment. Want to see Don Rickles blow a gasket? Have him try to sell a pair of shoes to Nanette Fabray. He becomes so exasperated that he practically speaks in tongues at one point. Mel Tormé does a better job keeping his cool swinging through "Take a Letter Miss Jones." In a cameo as 90-year-old Dr. Zazlo, Harvey breaks out a speed shuffle that rivals the fluidity of future cast member Tim Conway's "The Oldest Man." The whole gang takes part in "The Tin Pan Alley Story" set in New York in the early 1900's. Melvin Potts (Mel) and Phoebe Panz (Carol) seemingly have a bright song-writing future together as Potts and Panz. Life intervenes, hardships abound. Showbiz may not be pretty, but it's pretty darn hilarious.
