Having spanned three decades and hosted over 25,000 guests, THE MERV GRIFFIN SHOW had plenty of material for the compilers of this selection of highlights to choose from. The three-part series features the most memorable guests to appear on Griffin's show, including politicians such as Ronald Reagan, Robert F. Kennedy, and Arnold Schwarzenegger; classic filmstars such as David Niven, Sophia Loren, and Janet Leigh; comedians such as a young Jerry Seinfeld (who would latter tip his hat to Griffin in an episode of SEINFELD titled "The Merv Griffin Show") and Billy Crystal; and early appearances from future stars like Tom Cruise and Richard Pryor. The genial Griffin always brought out the best in his subjects, and this five-hour long package is a great way to experience a true master of the talk-show format.
"Always cheerful, he lobbed softballs his guests enjoyed fielding, eliciting quite a bit of surprisingly intimate info from a vast variety of people..." -- Grade: B+
-- Ken Tucker
