The Jimmy Dean Show
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jimmy Dean Show was a mid-1960s ABC television variety show, starring Jimmy Dean.
It was one of the first to present country music entertainers with dignity and class, on their terms. Roger Miller, George Jones, Charlie Rich, Buck Owens and others got some of their first network TV exposure on the Dean show, also best remembered for his regular sketches with one of Jim Henson's long running Muppet character, Rowlf the Dog.
