    • Trivia
      This unaired episode of The Joey Bishop Show is now considered lost. The episode, known only as #85, (although some claim the title was 'Joey Goes to Washington') was filmed on November 15, 1963 and guest starred comedian and impressionist Vaughn Meader. Meader rose to fame in the early 1960s for his impersonation of then-President John F. Kennedy featured on the popular comedy album The First Family. This episode centered around Meader performing his Kennedy impersonation in routines opposite the fictional Joey Barnes. A week after filming, President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. President Kennedy's death promptly ended Meader's career - his club bookings and television appearances were quickly canceled and his albums were pulled from stores. The episode featuring Meader was scheduled to air in February 1964, but was pulled by NBC. The episode never aired and was reportedly destroyed. Prior to the taping, Meader claimed that this would be his last time impersonating President Kennedy.
