Earlier this month, Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors was a ratings hit for NBC.
Twenty-five years ago, on one of Johnny Carson’s latter day Tonight Shows, Parton promoted the Peacock’s Home for Christmas, which starred her immediate and extended family.
This isn’t the interview where Carson famously said, “I would give about a year’s pay to peek under there.” Instead this is Dolly telling an attentive Johnny a couple of heartwarming stories about her past Christmases as a kid. So there’s no irony here. But these homespun tales remain affecting while Dolly looks all aglow. Here you go.
