Milton Berle and "Texaco Star Theatre" arrived in 1948 · and over the next seven years the show changed sponsors and titles. But not stars. Berle remained the one and only "Uncle Miltie · " regaling America with pie-in-the-face slapstick · outrageous satire and female impersonations that never left gender in doubt. Highlighting this show are kinescopes from the era · showing Berle with Martha Raye · Frank Sinatra · Gracie Fields · and Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. There are also clips from Berle's later career · including a dramatic performance as a blackjack dealer in "Doyle Against the House · " a 1961 telecast that earned him an Emmy nomination. On hand to pay tribute are 18 celebrities · including Bob Hope · Johnny Carson · Kirk Douglas · Frank Sinatra · Flip Wilson (as his character Geraldine) · Lucille Ball · Don Rickles · Mario Thomas · Angie Dickinson · Joey Bishop and Gregory Peck.
