"THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR!" A ONE-HOUR SPECIAL FEATURING TWO COLORIZED EPISODES TO BE REBROADCAST FRIDAY, MAY 28

The Featured Episodes, "Where Did I Come From" and "Never Bathe on Saturday," Were Chosen by Creator Carl Reiner to Showcase his Favorite Episodes Featuring Dick Van Dyke

THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW - NOW IN LIVING COLOR! is a one-hour special featuring two colorized classic episodes of the beloved 1960s series airing back-to-back on Friday, May 28 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT), on the CBS Television Network. Series creator and co-star Carl Reiner personally selected the two episodes to showcase his favorite episodes featuring Dick Van Dyke. (Originally broadcast 12/14/18.)

"After seeing only two seconds of 92-year-old Dick dancing in the new 'Mary Poppins' movie, I picked shows that featured Dick's physical comedy," said Reiner. "He was, is and will always be the greatest entertainer I have ever seen."

The special features the season one episode "Where Did I Come From," written by Carl Reiner, and the season four episode "Never Bathe on Saturday," also written by Reiner. The main titles and end credits of the two episodes are seamlessly combined into one set - at the beginning and end of the hour - without interruption between each.

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.

In "Where Did I Come From," 6-year-old Ritchie asks his parents the inevitable "where did I come from?" question, and they recall the days before his birth. The episode originally aired on Jan. 3, 1961 during the series' first season.

In "Never Bathe on Saturday," the Petries' romantic second honeymoon becomes a disaster when Laura's toe gets caught in a bath spout. The episode was first aired on March 31, 1965, during season four.

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

Carl Reiner is an executive producer, with George Shapiro and Paul Brownstein. "The Dick Van Dyke Show" is distributed by Paul Brownstein Productions.
