He brought most of his radio cast with him, and was joined by various special guests as he performed some clown-like skits for the general public. The TV show went out live, which meant some nerve-fraying action unfolded on the screen, with the often unpredictable Benny drawing on his enormous comic talent to pull together an often chaotic show. A welter of material from the shows is included here, including episodes such as "Beverly Hills Police Station," "Jack's Hong Kong Suit," "Honolulu Trip," "Lunch counter Murder," " Four O'Clock in the Morning Show," and many others.
