Countdown to Christmas: Christmas with the Showoffs (1975)

 Showoffs had the misfortune of airing at noon (ET) during its all-too-short run on ABC. Some might wonder if the show is cursed. Larry Blyden (ex-What's My Line?) had been tapped to host, but died in a car crash while on vacation. Bobby Van, who landed the gig, passed away after having recorded the lone season of Make Me Laugh four years later.

A Christmas episode surfaced on Buzzr a year ago, with Vicki Lawrence (The Carol Burnett Show), Greg Morris, fresh from Mission: Impossible, which ended its 1st run a year earlier, Tina Cole (ex-My Three Sons, The King Family Show), & Robert Urich (S.W.A.T.).


No rating. Just a public service.
