How Bizarre: Canadian sitcom blazed a blue trail


Name and describe the 1980s Canadian sketch comedy show with early career appearances by a few future stars and one terrible daredevil. A censored version of the show aired on CTV from 1980 to 1986, while the unbridled episodes aired on U.S. network Showtime. It blazed new trails in terms of its risque content, its self-awareness and its related near-complete dispensing of the fourth wall. Luba Goy, who went on to join Broadfoot on Royal Canadian Air Farce, is credited with appearing on seven Bizarre episodes from 1981 to 1983. The Super Dave show ran for five family friendly seasons starting in 1987 — but like a good mushroom, it was first grown in something much dirtier.
