The Golden Touch of Frankie Carle

Jim Jordan Jr. produced and directed the series. The writers were Lenny Gaines and Barry Ziff. The show was sustaining and originated from KRCA-TV. In August 1956 the program was broadcast from 7:30 to 7:45 p.m. Eastern Time. In September it expanded to Tuesdays at that same time, and in October it went back to the original time slot. ==Critical response==

A review in the trade publication Broadcasting said that the premiere episode focused too little on the star: "Mr. Carle was all but crowded off the screen" by "visual gimmicks", the guest "gets far more exposure than he does", and "Mr. Carle is permitted to play only snatches of the songs that made him famous." ==References==
