"THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR! A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO CARL REINER," A ONE-HOUR SPECIAL FEATURING TWO BELOVED EPISODES, TO BE BROADCAST FRIDAY, JULY 3

The Classic Episodes, "Coast to Coast Big Mouth" and "October Eve," Feature Series Creator and Co-Star Mr. Reiner

CBS will honor the memory of legendary actor, producer, director, writer, comedian and Emmy Award winner Carl Reiner with THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR! A SPECIAL TRIBUTE TO CARL REINER, featuring two colorized back-to-back classic episodes of the beloved 1960s series, Friday, July 3 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. As series creator and co-star, Carl Reiner personally supervised the original colorization of the episodes.

The special features "Coast to Coast Big Mouth," which ranked #8 on TV Guide's list of the "100 Greatest TV Episodes of All-Time," and "October Eve," which Mr. Reiner considered to be one of the series' funniest episodes. Both were written by Bill Persky and Sam Denoff.

In "Coast to Coast Big Mouth," Laura Petrie blurts out a top secret on a national television quiz show, revealing that comedian Alan Brady wears a toupee. The episode, which was the show's fifth and final season premiere, was originally broadcast on Sept. 15, 1965. "Coast to Coast Big Mouth" won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series in 1966.

In "October Eve," a painting of Laura returns to haunt her when, despite her having posed fully clothed, the artist (played by Carl Reiner) takes the liberty of "undraping" her. The episode was first presented on April 8, 1964, during season three.

In December 2017, Mr. Reiner said: "In 'October Eve,' I got a chance to perform on the show as someone other than Alan Brady, and I loved the character of Carpetna the artist as soon as I read it."

Most recently, both episodes aired on CBS in two separate THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR! specials executive produced by Mr. Reiner, on Dec. 11, 2016 and Dec. 22, 2017, respectively. The episodes were hand-picked by Mr. Reiner to be included.

The Emmy Award-winning series starred Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore as television comedy writer Rob and his wife Laura Petrie; Larry Matthews as their son Ritchie; Morey Amsterdam and Rose Marie as Buddy Sorrell and Sally Rogers, co-writers on the fictional "The Alan Brady Show," Carl Reiner as Alan Brady; Richard Deacon as Mel Cooley; Jerry Paris as Dr. Jerry Helper; and Ann Morgan Guilbert as Millie Krumbermacher Helper.

"The Dick Van Dyke Show" originally aired on CBS from Oct. 3, 1961, through June 1, 1966, finishing in the Nielsen Top 10 in three of its five seasons, peaking at #3 during the 1963-1964 season. The show received 15 total primetime Emmy Awards, including three Emmys for Dick Van Dyke, five for Carl Reiner and two for Mary Tyler Moore.

Carl Reiner served as executive producer for "THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR!," along with George Shapiro and Paul Brownstein. THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW is distributed by Paul Brownstein Productions.
