Bob Newhart Vinyl Record Albums

Bob Newhart's success in stand-up led to his own NBC variety show in 1961, The Bob Newhart Show. The show lasted only a single season, yet earned Newhart an Emmy Award nomination and a Peabody Award. The Peabody Board cited him as:
a person whose gentle satire and wry and irreverent wit waft a breath of fresh and bracing air through the stale and stuffy electronic corridors. A merry marauder, who looks less like St. George than a choirboy, Newhart has wounded, if not slain, many of the dragons that stalk our society. In a troubled and apprehensive world, Newhart has proved once again that laughter is the best medicine.
In the mid-1960s, Newhart appeared on The Dean Martin Show 24 times, and The Ed Sullivan Show eight times. He appared in a 1963 episode of The Alfred Hitchcock Hour.
From 1972 to 1978, Newhart starred in the popular Bob Newhart Show on CBS in which he played a Chicago psychologist and husband of co-star, Suzanne Pleshette.
Newhart guest hosted The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson a total of 87 times; he hosted Saturday Night Live twice, in 1980 and again in 1995.
In 1982, Newhart returned to primetime with a new sitcom, Newhart, on CBS, co-starring Mary Frann. When the show went off the air in 1990, it ended with a surreal scene where Newhart wakes up in the morning on the set of his 1970s show and describes that the entire Newhart series as a dream.
In 1992, Newhart made an attempt to come back to television with a series called Bob. But it did not develop a strong audience and went off the air two years later. In 1997, Newhart returned again with George and Leo on CBS with Judd Hirsch.
