Talk of the Town (variety show)

Talk of the Town was a short lived comedy and talk show performed at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1982 and aired on cable television. Directed by Doug Raymond and hosted by comedienne Jaye P. Morgan, Talk of the Town was primarily a talkshow in which some guests performed short standup comedy routines before joining a panel. Other guests simply joined the panel for discussion of their personal lives and careers. Discussion often included sexually oriented jokes, insults and gossip with Morgan and her cohost comedian Pat Cooper.

Talk of the Town was filmed live for cable television and subsequently released by adult video distributor VCX on their in house nonadult video label VCII. Two cassette tapes of Talk of the Town were released by VCII. Showcatalog number VC115 was released in 1983, and Showcatalog number VC127 in 1984. The covers of both VCII VHS releases shared the same cover design as nearly all of VCIIs releases. The bottom third of the cover was white with the distributors logo, while the top two thirds displayed artwork from the featured content. In the case of Talk of the Town, both covers had the same art in a different color scheme and with the starring personalities in star shaped frames. Just For the Hell Of It, a rare and out of print video distributor has compiled both of the shows onto a single DVD volume. The DVD cover also reproduces to a large extent the original art used on the VCII VHS cassette covers.Comedian Murray Langston performs a routine as his character The Unknown Comic before removing his bagmask and discussing his current career with Morgan and Cooper.
