Title: Lloyd Thaxton
Post by: Jimmy Owen on June 16, 2005, 10:05:08 AM

Don't you guys think anybody could have done "The Lloyd Thaxton Show."? Of course, they would have had to change the name of the show. All Lloyd ever did was play records and watch the teens dance.  I don't even think he danced himself.   And what about "Everybody's Talking," doncha think Win Martindale was just seething having been relegated to the announcer spot while watching Lloyd do the show.  Then "Funny You Should Ask"  Lloyd should have talked to Pete Marshall on how to interact with Paul Lynde.  Your thoughts?

Not necessarily. Don Webster hosted The Gene Carroll Show for nine years.
