Production
The variety / sketch comedy was directed by Marc Breaux.[1] The inclusion of Ball was partly because CBS insisted on Burnett having an established co-star for the special, and also because Ball already had a contract with CBS for up to three specials (in addition to her regular sitcom The Lucy Show) for the 1966–67 season, of which she would only produce one (Lucy in London).[2]
