THE FUNNY & GLARE SHOW

THE SONNY AND CHER COMEDY HOUR
1971-1974, 1976-1978 CBS

Sonny and Cher Bono were a pop duo that had a comedy/variety show in the mid-70's.

“The Beat Goes On” was their big hit and the theme song for their show.
Caricature of James Franciscus as Longstreet, blind TV detective. The Smothers Brothers credited as writers is a joke here, but the show did share some of the same little-known writers such as Steve Martin and Bob Einstein.
