Merv Griffin takes one on the jaw from Helen Gurley Brown (1977)
Our Daily 70s Spot is a 1977 promo for The Merv Griffin Show. Guests on the talk show for that evening included Roger ‘James Bond’ Moore, The cast of The Wiz, Cosmopolitan‘s Helen Gurley Brown and actress Barbara Carrera.
The Merv Griffin Show ran throughout the entirety of the 1970s (and most of the 60s and 80s) and seemed like it would go on forever. Ol’ Merv did alright for himself. In addition to his long-running chat show he created Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune.
