While most CBS sitcoms went color in the autumn of 1965 (except The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Munsters, and The Smothers Brothers Show), CBS dramas and hour series all remained in black and white. Daktari was the first hour color series on CBS (in January, 1966) as a mid season replacement for Rawhide. Variety shows The Ed Sullivan Show, The Danny Kaye Show, and The Red Skelton Hour regularly went color in autumn, 1965, while Jackie Gleason And His American Scene Magazine (taped in Miami) remained in black and white. Gunsmoke was the final prime time series to switch to color, with it's 12th season premier, Snap Decision, episode #410, on 9/17/66.
