Family Feud: Gilligan's Island vs. Hawaiian Eye vs. Lost in Space (1984)
This has little to do with Christmas other than it being my present ot you. It's also one of Jim Backus' final appearances on television. He was already very sick at this point but his voice is still immaculate. Of course, all of these heroes of sixties television are being moderated by Richard Dawson who came from the same world as a cast member on Hogan's Heroes.

The Doris Day Show with guest Bob Crane (1971)
The Doris Day Show does a take-off on late night talk shows in this episode. Bob Crane plays a character that is obviously patterned after Jack Paar (although his clothing reflects Johnny Carson) and his producer is a bit of an in-joke, patterned after Tonight Show producer Fred De Cordova.
