Pinocchio and star-studded TV parade rakes in big spends
A three hour NBC telecast of Pinocchio led the night with a 1.325 million dollar tab. Mickey Rooney and Walter Slezak head a cast that also includes Fran Allison and Jerry Colonna while CBS and NBC showcases spent 400 000 and 600 000 respectively on music filled programs. The CBS Sin at the costliest moments features Sinatra Crosby Clooney Armstrong. A later NBC tribute hosted by Tyrone Power added to the lavish evening. The lowest budgeted Pinocchio at 325 000 proved the best value for viewers as the night’s top entertainment.
