That Show with Joan Rivers (AKA The Joan Rivers Show) - Press Release for the General Retail Release of the 4-DVD Set

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - Fans of Joan Rivers - both old and new - can remember the legendary comedienne and see how it all began with 29 of the funniest episodes from season one of That Show With Joan Rivers, a special, four-disc DVD collector's set out June 23 from Film Chest Media Group in partnership with Synergy Entertainment and Topics Entertainment.

Long before Fashion Police and more than two decades before The Joan Rivers Show of the early '90s, Rivers hosted That Show, her first daytime talk show which aired from 1968-69, weekdays on NBC. Taped in New York City and produced by the young working mother and her husband, Edgar, each half-hour program included an opening monologue by Rivers before featuring a top celebrity as well as an "expert" who would tackle the day's topic. In Joan's now-beloved brash, staccato style, the guests and the subject were frequently at odds...and the results were hilarious.

Celeb guests featured in this four-disc collector's set include Johnny Carson, Steve Lawrence, Ed Sullivan, Florence Henderson, Barbara Walters, Soupy Sales, Lily Tomlin and more! Watch Joan Rivers hone her skills in over 11 hours of the Queen of Comedy's first TV show, as she and her guests take on such subjects as "Teenagers Today," "Wallpaper" and "Life in Russia." That Show With Joan Rivers is presented in full screen with an aspect ratio of 4 x 3 and original sound.
