Some personal takeaways.
- I personally loved the fact that Baldwin didn't want to do show without Gene Rayburn's mic.
- Baldwin's talent fee's supposedly $200,000 per episode, most of which is going to arts-related charities, as previously reported elsewhere.
- With many references to Goodson-Todman and when shows were launched, the writer did their homework!
