Danny Kaye Was denitely not in the Wizzard of Oz. Danny Kaye inroduced the show for quite a number of years. A few others introduced the show the telecast before him, this is maybe where the confusion has come from. see informaton below: -
Because commercial television breaks were shorter in the 1950's and the early to mid-1960's, something was needed in those years to "pad out" the running time to two hours (120 minutes) when the film was shown on TV, so the first telecast, on the CBS television network, featured Bert Lahr, a very young Liza Minnelli, and young Oz expert Justin Schiller as hosts, to introduce the film and make a few entertaining remarks about it. For subsequent telecasts, CBS would choose its hosts from its then-current primetime lineup. In 1959, when the film's second telecast took place, the host was Red Skelton (The Red Skelton Show); in 1960 it was Richard Boone (Have Gun, Will Travel), in 1961 and 1962 it was Dick Van Dyke (The Dick Van Dyke Show), and from 1964 through 1967, it was Danny Kaye (The Danny Kaye Show).
The film as then telecast would also have "wraparound" opening credits and closing credits segments devised by CBS, accompanied by their own opening and closing music. For the opening ones, the title "The Wizard of Oz" and the names of its five leading actors, Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, and Jack Haley, would be shown in CBS's own format. This would be followed by the host speaking about the film. Following this, the movie would begin, complete with the actual film's opening credits exactly as MGM created them, including the Leo the Lion logo. However, at film's end, the closing credits as seen on the film would not be shown. Instead, immediately after Dorothy spoke her last line ("Oh, Auntie Em, there's no place like home!"), and the camera faded out on her, television viewers again saw CBS's specially made title card "The Wizard of Oz", accompanied by some of the film's end title music, exactly as heard on the soundtrack. After a final commercial, the host would then be seen once again, bid farewell to the TV audience, and the names of the film's cast would then be seen in a final credits sequence devised by CBS.
This method of presentation was permanently dropped when the film temporarily went to NBC, where no opening "wraparound" sequence was shown - the presentation simply began with the film's title sequence and ended with MGM's closing credits. The host idea was also dropped because more commercial time was required, and after its 1976 return to CBS, the film was hosted on that network only once more, by Angela Lansbury (Murder She Wrote). The "wraparound" sequence was not revived. Ms. Lansbury also narrated a documentary about the making of the film, as well. In recent years, when shown on Turner Classic Movies, the film is always hosted by Robert Osborne, though, in this case, since TCM is commercial-free, it is obviously not done in order to pad out its running time.
