1969.
The Andy Williams Show got a make over at the end of the 1960s to feel a little bit more like the hit show Laugh-In.
1965.
Zippy the Amazing Chimp on an episode of the CBC comedy series Nightcap.
The Sonny and Cher Show was the quintessential American variety show in the 1970s. It was filmed at CBS Television City in Hollywood.
But there were more Canadians putting the show together than Americans.
The credits on a 1971 episode of The Sonny and Cher Show list writers Bob Arnott and Paul Wayne, executive producers/writers Chris Bearde and Allan Blye, assistant producer Garry Blye, musical director Jimmy Dale, production assistants Danny Mann and Larry Robins, and cast members Murray Langston, Billy Van, Jack Duffy, Ted Ziegler, and Peter Cullen.
That’s four Canadian writers, three Canadian producers, one Canadian musical director, two Canadian production assistants and five Canadian actors.
Nearly all of them came to Hollywood after immense frustration dealing with the CBC in Toronto.

In the late 1960s, The Andy Williams Show on NBC was taken over by Canadians.
Writers Mark Shekter and Bob Arnott, talent coordinator Garry Blye, associate musical director Jimmy Dale, and executive producers Allan Blye and Chris Bearde were among the CBC refugees who resettled in Burbank.
Nightcap was Canada's first satirical program. It aired from 1964 through 1968 and was never shown again.
Chris Bearde's The Cheap Show (1978-1979) was inspired by the style of The Gong Show (which Bearde co-created).
