Television and Radio By John Crosby
Television's Sunday night lineup opened with Pinocchio starring Mickey Rooney and Walter Slezak, praised for its visual style and lively cast. The Edsel anniversary special and Crosby Sinatra segments followed, mixing travelogues and musical bits that undercut momentum. The Standard Oil tribute at the end collapsed into a disjointed, poorly received showcase with star cameos and weak humor.
