...Spectacular of the Week, bumping such attractions as the Jonathan Winters Show and ABC's Wednesday-night movie, was the all-network, prime-time Richard Nixon Show, introducing to the nation the twelve men the President-elect has chosen to head the top Government departments. "The people will know more about their Cabinet than they've ever known before," bragged a Nixon staff member.
