And a Question: Was the "John Davidson Show" new episodes or repeats of his short-lives 1969 show?

A little background: In 1980 Davidson was hired by Group W to replace Mike Douglas, who was deemed as skewing towards an older demographic than they cared for. So The John Davidson Show would indeed be new episodes. Or at least, in a repeat cycle from the newer show. The other clue is the length as seen on KREM: 90 minutes.
 
In all fairness, I could have sworn that Merv Griffin's old show had a 90-minute format, as well...

Oh, he did . . . certainly as seen in New York, they showed the whole hour-and-a-half.

Recently I read Mike Douglas's self-bio that was published years ago. Of course Mike goes into details about John Davidson and how group W felt Douglas was too old. Even as recently as when the book was published ( around 2000 ), he was still bitter about the whole thing and showed no love towards John Davidson.

I wonder if those two ever did became friends or even spoke to each other before Mike Douglas's death in 2006.
