The Colgate Comedy Hour of Nov. 22, 1953 was the first telecast of the NBC compatible color system, the FCC reversed it's ruling in December making the NBC system the approved color system. The cast and some of the company was flown from LA to New York to broadcast the program from the Colonial Theater which had color broadcasting capabilities for NBC. There were no color facilities at that time on the West Coast. Just prior to the show starting a man comes on stage an announces that the following program is in NBC Compatible Color and those with B&W sets can still view the program on their B&W sets at home.
