In the fall of 1963, television audiences witnessed something extraordinary –  the legendary Judy Garland starring in her very own weekly variety show on CBS. What should have been a triumphant venture and crowning achievement to an already legendary career became instead one of entertainment's most fascinating tragedies... and it was all captured forever on videotape.

With a roster of guest stars ranging from old pals Mickey Rooney and Martha Raye, to the powerhouse Ethel Merman, to a 21-year old singing sensation named Barbra Streisand, "The Judy Garland Show" is a testament to the unique magic of the greatest entertainer of her time, and our only visual documentation of the mature artist at the height of her powers singing the songs that defined her legacy. So, forget your troubles, come on, get happy, and join us for Part One of our special two-part episode on "The Judy Garland Show".
