The sixth season begins with Jim Nabors, as in past seasons, being Carol's first guest. Carol and Harvey introduce two new characters, Fred and Marge -- "just plain folks" -- who sit in the audience and talk about contemporary life. Nabors sings "The Way of Love"; Carol and Nabors duet "The Maggie Blues"; Carol solos "If I Could Write a Song"; the finale is "Star Spangled Jive", a take-off on World War II movie musicals.
