“So what should we call it?”
The question that would name the new launch of Bizarre, the weekly Canadian sketch comedy series featuring John Byner, Bob Einstein, Ziggy Lorenc, Beau Starr, Billy Van and many guest friends. The show was produced by CTV in suburban Toronto at the CTFO Glen-Warren Studios. In the United States it was featured on the Showtime cable network. CTV aired an edited version for Canadian viewers while Showtime ran the sketches as produced which sometimes included nudity. In total, there were 141 episodes airing between 1980-1985. It is now available on DVD.
