Singers Out in Front
By MARGARET McMANUS

NEW 1Ohh.-NO matter WHAT anybody
says. teIevision comedians are not being ousted
by singers. The comedians may be going, but
they're not going far, nor for long.
This is the almost unqualified consensus
among the program directors for the three
major television networks These astute gentle
men point out that while this fall may be
the season Of singers, 1t remains to be seen
whether or not they have any greater survival
quality than do comedians.
Truth to tell, a look at fall programming
would indicate that at this moment, the singers
are out in front.
This autumn, as well, the frost will coat
the pumpkin, the leaves will turn to russell and
gold, the seasonal tang will be bitterSweet in
the air. but for the first fall in seven years there
will be no Jackie Gleason on the teevision
screen.
Love Lucy also has bowed out and though
George Gobel still will be around, he'll be around
with singer Eddie Fisher. These. of course, are
only the most recent comedian casualties.
On the other hand, you're going to stumble
over singers wherever you turn. CHS is not
so heavily endowed with singers as the other
two Tv networks, but Patti Page will have her
own show on CHS beginning in September.
NBC will have Gisele Mackenzie in half
hour Saturday night show and Rosemary
Clooney also will have a half-hour weekly show
on NBC. And there is a possibility that Nat
King Cole may remain on during the winter.
To say nothing of the return of MICS triumphs
Of last season, Perry Como, Dinah Shore and
Tennessee Ernie Ford.
ABC will have four new half-hour shows.
all starring singers Frank Sinatra, Guy Mitchell,
Pat Boone and Patrice MunSel.
Faced with such staggering evidence, it
would be difficult for the average viewer to make
a good case for the comedians. The network
reasons.
James T. Aubrey, jr. recently made head of
programming for ABC-TV, said this: Comedy
is a basic quality in the entertainment bust
ness People very much want to laugh, so the
comedians will always be with us.
obviously, the problem of the comedians
is one of overexposure and of getting enough
good, fresh material" he said. I'm sure the
only way the comedians can survive is to limit
their appearances, but survive they will. They
aren't going to be killed of by the singers"
