Not for Women Only was a syndicated American talk show hosted by broadcast journalist Barbara Walters from 1971 to 1976.[1][2] The half-hour show aired weekdays on NBC's local New York City affiliate station after The Today Show. The program was adapted by Walters from For Women Only, a talk show hosted by broadcast journalist and art critic Aline B. Saarinen.[3] Gilda Radner studied tapes of Not for Women Only while creating Baba Wawa, her impression of Walters on Saturday Night Live.[4]
