Well, I’ve done a lot of “Before They Were Stars” features on George Clooney, but I can safely say that I’ve officially tracked down his very first appearance in front of a television camera. The Uncle Al Show was a very popular children’s television program which aired in Cincinnati for 35 years and in 1970, an 8-year old Clooney had the honour of appearing in one of Uncle Al’s skits during an episode. You can see him here as the first kid being loaded onto the boat.
