Legendary entertainer Bob Hope hosted, and occasionally starred in, one of the last major anthology series on network television. Dramatic and comedy shows were presented, featuring many of Hollywood's top names, including quite a few who didn't do much television otherwise. Every month or so, Hope would host a variety special in the show's timeslot. On those occasions, the show was titled "Chrysler Presents a Bob Hope Special". As can be seen from the various hosts listed, many of these shows were shown in reruns, usually as a summer replacement series, during the late 1960s and early 1970s.—Bob Sorrentino
