On November 22 , 1963 , President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas , Texas , and Kennedy 's death effectively ended Meader 's career . Copies of '' The First Family '' were pulled from stores and a JFK-related Christmas single by Meader that had been released by MGM 's Verve Records shortly before the assassination was quickly withdrawn . Appearances that were already booked were canceled , including one for the Grammy Awards ceremony . An episode of '' The Joey Bishop Show '' was also pulled , which Meader filmed one week before the assassination . The episode was never aired and was reportedly destroyed
