One Season 3 episode of The Joey Bishop Show (https://www.hometheaterforum.com/community/threads/the-joey-bishop-show-in-its-entirety-and-in-separate-seasons-is-finally-out-on-dvd-details-below.356601/page-4) is now considered lost. The episode, known only as #85 (https://lostmediawiki.com/The_Joey_Bishop_Show_%22Episode_85%22_(lost_unaired_episode_of_sitcom_TV_series;_1963)), was filmed on (https://www.nationalenquirer.com/celebrity/sad-tragic-fate-jfk-impersonator-vaughn-meader/) November 15, 1963 and guest starred (https://www.tvobscurities.com/2016/11/tales-of-lost-tv-vaughn-meader-joey-bishop-show-1963/) comedian and impressionist Vaughn Meader (https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2004-oct-30-me-meader30-story.html). Meader rose to fame (https://www.maryellenmark.com/bibliography/magazines/article/entertainment-weekly/the-second-most-famous-man-in-america/E) in the early 1960s for his comedic impersonation of then-President John F. Kennedy featured on the popular comedy album The First Family. The episode centered around Joey confusing Meader (https://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/26/magazine/the-temporary-kennedy.html) for the real President Kennedy and Meader performing other, non-Kennedy related routines from his musical/comedy stage act. A week after filming (https://jacksonupperco.com/2020/05/20/son-of-a-gun-or-danny-thomas-a-look-at-the-joey-bishop-show/), President Kennedy was assassinated (http://mercurie.blogspot.com/2013/11/the-jfk-assssinations-impact-on.html) in Dallas. President Kennedy's death promptly ended Meader's career (https://ew.com/article/2003/03/28/exactly-40-years-ago-brief-shining-moment-vaughn/); his club bookings and television appearances were quickly canceled and his albums were pulled from stores. The episode featuring Meader was scheduled to air in February 1964, but was “scrapped” (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DistancedFromCurrentEvents/LiveActionTV), or pulled from the schedule, by NBC. The episode never aired and was reportedly destroyed (https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/lost-tv-shows.663437/).
