Bee was also well known in the 1950s in Los Angeles as a regular on Hometown Jamboree, a local television program featuring Tennessee Ernie Ford.

She became a regular on Hometown Jamboree during the next two years,[5] a KTLA-TV program produced at the Legion Stadium in El Monte, California.

[6] The Saturday-night stage show was hosted and produced by Cliffie Stone, who helped popularize country music in California.

The program gave a big break to many young singers, including Tommy Sands, who became a teen idol and dated Bee in the 1950s.

First appearing on screen in an RKO Pathe short-subject film "Molly Bee Sings", Bee also undertook a brief stage and film acting career in the 1950s and 1960s, appearing in Summer Love, Corral Cuties, Going Steady, Chartroose Caboose, and The Young Swingers, but once said she was "too shy" for an acting career.

During the 1960s, Bee was a regular headliner at major Las Vegas showrooms, and briefly toured with Bob Hope's USO troupe.

[5] In the 1970s, Bee reconnected with Cliffie Stone and recorded two more albums[7] to begin her comeback; she played small country bars and venues, very different scenes from the large concert audiences that she had attracted early in her career.

[12][13] Although she was no longer touring, in April 1998, she was part of the playbill putting on a benefit for the Ivey Ranch Park for the physically and mentally handicapped in Oceanside, California.

[15] Bee, who in her later years went by Molly Muncy offstage, died on February 7, 2009, at Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside from complications following a stroke.
