From December 5, 1947 comes the comedy show "Can You Top This?... an "unrehearsed carousel of jokes." The three guests do not know what jokes have been chosen by the audience until the host, Peter Donald, tells them on the air. The three "gagsters" have no script and rely on memory and ability to switch jokes and make them fit the subject. This show ran on NBC from the mid 1940's to the mid 1950's.
