This Week in TV History: THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW premieres on June 20, 1948 on the CBS Television Network. Originally titled TOAST OF THE TOWN, the series last until 1971. THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW was the ultimate television variety show and featured the television debut of many notable personalities including Walt Disney and Irving Berlin. Most Americans got their first look at The Beatles and Elvis Presley through THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW.
