I used to watch every year this show full of circus acts made by Hollywood artists, whether as animal trainers or doing daredevil feats.
Though I forgot some of the acts for this chapter, I was always looking forward for the High Wire act, which involves at least a trio of stars.
That year it was the turn of Mary Hart. Not only she did gave us some real Entertainment Tonight (yes, that show she stills host...), but her act was daring as she did walk the rope with no pole, just a hula hoop 10 meters about the grounds. And with such a sexy outfit ! The finale was also outstanding, as they change slippers for flat boots, and took the pole this time to walk an ignited wire. Just walking through the flames, it was really some Entertainment Tonight ! Kudos to Mary for this one ! For the rest, just hoping they can round up the best of this series and show it on DVD... To remind how good and funny Steve Allen was...and Brooke Shields doing the Spanish web, do an escape magic act or walking through glass (I swore, she got cut through the walk !)...
