Variety Show Appearances
Storch appeared on many variety shows including Sonny and Cher, Laugh-In, Hollywood Squares, Playboy After Dark, The Hollywood Palace, and Toast of the Town, with several appearances on the Ed Sullivan, Johnny Carson, and Steve Allen shows. Jackie Gleason personally asked Storch to fill in for the summer while Gleason was on hiatus. This led to his hosting The Larry Storch Show in the early 1950s. He played a recurring role as Charlie, a drunk, on Car 54, Where Are You?.

Famous quotes containing the words variety, show and/or appearances:
“A poem is like a person. Though it has a family tree, it is important not because of its ancestors but because of its individuality. The poem, like any human being, is something more than its most complete analysis. Like any human being, it gives a sense of unified individuality which no summary of its qualities can reproduce; and at the same time a sense of variety which is beyond satisfactory final analysis.”
—Donald Stauffer (b. 1930)
“That look of horror spoils your lovely face. What if it should show even through the wax?”
—Crane Wilbur (1889–1973)
“It is doubtless wise, when a reform is introduced, to try to persuade the British public that it is not a reform at all; but appearances must be kept up to some extent at least.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
