Charles Drake was the host,[1] and among the guest stars were Patricia Neal, Peter O'Toole, Bert Lahr, Gary Merrill, Mel Ferrer, Donald Pleasence, Leslie Dwyer, Lois Maxwell, and Kim Hunter.[citation needed] It was one of the first major television appearances for actress Connie Hines, in the first season episode "Mean Mountain".[2]
Originally planned to run on CBS, Rendezvous was replaced by Desilu Playhouse, which led to Rendezvous's being put into syndication.[3] The Schilling division of McCormick & Company bought Rendezvous in 1959. Renamed The Schilling Playhouse, the series was initially broadcast on KABC-TV in Los Angeles and KRON-TV in San Francisco.[4]
