Dinah Shore had her NBC daytime show, Dinah's Place, cancelled after 4 years because incoming programming boss Lin Bolen wanted to skew younger. Yeah, sure, and Dinah gets replaced with a revival of Name That Tune. That landed like a wet fart, because the following fall, Shore hooked up with 20th Century Fox to distribute a 60-or-90 minute talk show to compete with the likes of Mike Douglas & Merv Griffin.
Dinah! ran for 6 seasons (1974-80), with the title change to Dinah! & Friends in the final season.
From season 4, Dinah goes on location in Utah for a show with the Osmonds.
Rating: A.
