I agree with

TOD:

THE CAROL BURNETTE SHOW
ROWAN & MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN
THE DEAN MARTIN SHOW (Sort of)
THE ANDY WILLIAMS SHOW (the one with the bear)
THE SONNY & CHER SHOW
THE SMOTHERS BROTHERS COMEDY HOUR
THE MUPPET SHOW
SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE (first 2 or  seasons)

I will add
The Julie Andrews Hour

&
From Canada
Julie (with my friend Julie Amato) I was on it a few times

I didn't care for THE JULIE ANDREWS HOUR when it originally aired because I thought it was rather dry.  But years later, seeing a few episodes here and there, I appreciate the musicality of it more.

Jose - Yes, and this repairman was even OK with the dogs wandering around while he worked!

I'm surprised you are surprised the repairman was ok with the dogs.  I hope the exception are repairmen who aren't ok with the dogs.

Welcome back!

Things are looking up in the princess department, and we may have one or two to read for the King.  We also have a few for Anna.  Tomorrow is the kids, things may begin to look up.

And what the sadly-short-lived variety show from the late 80's, possibly early 90's... I want to say it was hosted by John Candy. It was one of the first attempts to bring back a old-fashioned variety show to primetime TV.  Wasn't it called something simply like "The Big Show"?

I think there was a Lorne Michaels SNL/SCTV hybrid that was part live and part taped on Friday nights called THE BIG SHOW.  This had to be about '83 or '84--it was the January that I first got my VCR and I recorded it every week.  It was kind of hit or miss (and mostly miss.)

The funniest bit I recall was a cartoon bloopers show that was hosted by Walter Conkrite

And I do feel a bit "sad" that I'll be missing the snow in NYC today, but I'm still not sure how I feel about missing the No Pants! Subway 2k9 Ride;D


And speaking of that, what is this thing about Steve Guttenberg jogging without pants in Central Park?  Is it some in-joke that I don't know about?

Before the revamped version of the board we used to get messages as soon as we logged on if we had a new pm. I miss that.  I forget to check!

I wonder what DR Jose found amusing in his story about the man discussing the walk route with his dog.

While I was deconstructing Christmasvillagetown, I put on the TV for some background noise and happened across WHATEVER, MARTHA on FLN.  The show is hee-larious.  I don't know if Alexis Stewart and her friend are really as snotty as that, but they are damn funny as they dis on Martha's doings.

Why isn't this show on during daytime TV?

DtM  _Did you say Julie Andrews dancing? 

This has been my obsessive-watching number of the past few months, Julie Andrews and Sandy Duncan singing and dancing to the Mann-Weil "The Last Blues Song" on the Julie Andrews Hour.  (Love the Helen Reddy performance of the song on The Flip Wilson Show, too.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPXjzSmk04Q&feature=PlayList&p=16FEF81BA5F2D31D&playnext=1&index=66



P.S. to Jose - Did you say you have the sheet music to this somewhere in the vault?

The Smothers Brothers also had a short-lived variety show on NBC during the 70's I remember liking.  They also came back to CBS about ten years ago, but the show was scheduled so semi-regularly that it was hard to find.

And then there were the bombs of MARY (Mary Tyler Moore's variety try) and the Rowan and Martin-less LAUGH-IN revival (which featured pre-Mork Robert Williams.)

The Delo & Daly show was also popular here in OZ.   I'm not sure though if they (Jonathon & Ken)worked together on TV in the USA.
