The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour 

The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour is an American comedy and variety show television series hosted by the Smothers Brothers that aired on CBS from February 5, 1967, to April 20, 1969. The series was a major success, especially considering it was scheduled against the major NBC television series Bonanza, with content that appealed to contemporary youth viewership with daring political satire humor and significant popular music performers such as Buffalo Springfield, Pete Seeger, the Beatles, and the Who. Despite this success, continual conflicts with network executives over content led to the show being abruptly pulled from the schedule in violation of the Smothers' contract in 1969.
