On Friday, the network will honor Reiner — who died Monday at age 98 — by airing a colorized hour-long special of The Dick Van Dyke Show, multiple outlets reported.
The special, titled The Dick Van Dyke Show – Now In Living Color! A Special Tribute To Carl Reiner, will feature two colorized back-to-back classic episodes of the beloved 1960s series.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the first episode in the special will be the Emmy Award-winning season 5 premiere “Coast to Coast Big Mouth,” in which Laura Petrie (Mary Tyler Moore) blurts out a top secret on a national television quiz show, revealing that comedian Alan Brady (Reiner) wears a toupee.
The second episode to be featured will be season 3’s “October Eve,” in which a painting of Laura (Moore) returns to haunt her when, despite her having posed fully clothed, the artist (Reiner) takes the liberty of “undraping” her.
Both episodes aired on CBS in two separate specials executive produced by Reiner in 2016 and 2017, respectively.
