Damn Yankees NBC TV Adaptation Flops in Review
NBC TV aired a two hour adaptation of the Broadway musical Damn Yankees with Joe Garagiola narrating. The program was panned as loud and misdirected, with Lee Remick and Phil Silvers delivering off-key performances and distracting pop art gimmicks that overwhelmed the cast. The piece labeled the production a near total disaster and a poor promo for NBCs baseball coverage.
