May 22, 1974 –
There is no real explanation – perhaps gambling debts – can explain the pairing of Julie Andrews and Jackie Gleason in the TV special, Julie Andrews & Jackie Gleason: How Sweet It Is, which air on ABC TV on this date.
This special was produced specifically for the American market (with Jackie Gleason’s famous catchphrase making up half the title). Because Gleason was not as well known in England at the time, the program was re-titled Julie Andrews and Jackie Gleason…Together when it was shown on British television three months after its US broadcast.
