How many classic variety shows can you name?
Be very wary, these answers vary!
Variety shows have been a staple of American television from the beginning. They have taken many forms but still carry on today, mostly in late night comedy and sketch formats.
Variety shows had their heyday starting in the 1950s and continuing through the 1970s. They ranged from hilarious comedy programs to music and dance revues to strange puppet shows. Many times, all of the above! If only there was a word to describe how diverse and mixed-together these shows were…

I got 23 out of 23. There are maybe six I would watch again. Midnight Special. SNL. Rowan and Martin. Smothers Brothers. Carol Burnett. Last but not least, Red Skelton, "And May God Bless. Good Night."
The one I miss was the Jim Neighbors hour. That was going to be my first choice but then I don't know why it show. But 22 out of 23 ain't bad
You got 23 out of 23
Talk about a showstopper!
No problem but I did have to guess on one of them.
I used to love watching The Harlem globetrotters Popcorn Machine on Saturday Mornings.
