Red Skelton created characters that made audiences cry and laugh. Tonight's tribute to Skelton is the most memorable and entertaining. David L. Wolper is honored for his pioneering work in the field of documentaries, miniseries and
variety specials. During the special, each new member to the TV Hall of Fame is remembered via archival footage and recollections from colleagues and friends. A few of the speeches are not only heartfelt but heart-tugging, with the best coming from a non-celebrity, Huntley's widow, Tippy Conrad.
