Does anyone remember this? It was a primetime show done at the height of the Gong Show. Barris tried for an Ed Sullivan type variety show integrating top acts from the Gong Show along with other mainstream performers. It only lasted a couple of weeks and there are no episodes on YT. However, this commercial is intriguing. One of his favorites from Gong, Lil and Peggy are prominently featured doing their hilarious rendition of "Tennessee Waltz" but this show also had Ray Charles, Al Green, Patti LaBelle, Clifton Davis and Henny Youngman.
