★★★★★ · The show revolves around Faye · Archive fan · 2015-03-08
An entertaining show that rests on the capable shoulders of its host. It's another of those productions which didn't have much of a budget but knew the limits and exploited them successfully. Faye Emerson was known as The First Lady of Television in the early years of the medium and it's easy to see why. She has a very charming way, is intelligent, and knows how to make her guests look good while moving the proceedings along. I assumed, because it was a filmed show vs a live one, that it was going to be uber-scripted and stilted. Not so. Faye carries on as if it were a live morning program…
