 I believe that Diane Carroll was the first black female to star
 in her own network show, but she didn't play a maid.  Seems to
 me that she was the widow of an air force officer, working in a
 doctor's office. I don't recall any interracial dating.
 In the show you mentioned, was this a romantic kiss between two
 adults as opposed to an adult giving a child a kiss on the
 cheek? (I don't consider the Trek kiss romantic or erotic in
 that it was compelled by outside forces, but at least Kirk and
 Uhura were adults.)

 Okay, now in a television special about ST, Shatner and Nichols both  made
 mention of their onscreen interracial kiss being ground-breaking. _I_
 thought that was on account of the kiss being the first passionate
 interracial one on TV.
 When was that?? I thought that the naming of starships continued the naval
 tradition of upgrading the vessels and recycling the names. In TVH the
 naval ship that Chekov and Uhura were on was the U.S.S. Enterprise.

That was in 1969, as I recall, when JULIA was on the air...
The program I'm trying to remember was in the mid-1950s...I had read about
it, and have seen clips from kinescopes of it on a few TV
retrospectivedocumentaries...
Something is ringing in the back of my mind that her name was "Marigold" or
"Maribel"...I believe it was also the first 'spin-off' show, but the only one
I can think of immediately is the older version of THE LORETTA YOUNG SHOW
(early 1950s as opposed to early 1960s).
I think this would be technically a kiss between adults...the white male was
a teenager either en route to or home from college, and was around 19-20...
Damn. It's Mr. Drucker all over again, isn't it?
