Goldie Hawn's NBC special misses Laugh-In magic
Hollywood reviewer Ruth DuBrow critiques Goldie Hawn's NBC one hour variety special. He faults the show for abandoning Hawn's comedic strength for uneven sketches and mid tier musical numbers. The standout moment is a warm duet with a Muppet. He notes Hawn's singing and dancing but calls her performance not up to her comedy reputation. He misses George Schlatter and Laugh-In's magic but sees potential if the program leans into Hawn's strengths.
