Excellent!  Fun to see his reactions to the talent honoring him.  Didn't know Jason Alexander could sing and dance so well.

Yes, Jason began his career singing and dancing on Broadway, he has a Tony award. He has performed here with the Baltimore Symphony, very talented entertainer. and also he has played the DVD role in Bye Bye Birdie in the TV version.

I loved it and the format they used, very personal and intimate setting. Was wondering if DVD's kids and gr kids were there, they didnt introduce any of them.  His wife, Arlene, is more than 40 years his junior.

I thought like you.  They never show the son that played with him as a detective on his Medical series. He is never mentioned.  I think his first name was Barry, not sure.

His wife is pretty, but looks like she cares about him.  Said she was the one that got it together.

He still has it.  

I remember the first shows live, when TV was great with good family shows. We couldn't wait until dinner was over to all sit together as a family and watch these shows. Brought back so many memories, it may me cry, because I am the only one that has lived so long in my family and remember the holidays of old.  

I usually fall asleep when watching TV today, but not last night.

I stayed awake the whole two hours.

I utube the old shows to get some laughter and entertainment.

Tony Danza looked good with his white hair. I loved his shows.

This was good entertainment last night, not like what they are putting out now.

Danza is still adorable but he needed a good haircut.

DVD still goes to the gym just as was mentioned. Not too long aog he did a 5 time appearance on Days of Our Lives, he was terrific. He made friends with one of the cast memebers at his gym and that is how he came to be on the show. He appeared in a scene with long time cast member Bill Hayes, who is also 98.

Please correct if I am wrong but at the end DVD said how he wished that Mary, Morey and Sally could have been there, he should have referred to Sally by her real name Rose Marie.  I know I am being very trivial, but thought that is what I heard.
