An annual special where your favorite actors and actresses got together and did fun things.

We used to call it Circus of the Out of Work Actors.

Ohh, the show about Celebrities doing and saying ridiculous things. The show is still on, they just renamed it, it’s called the View.

I'll take $5 million a year to do the show.

Well, I don’t know you but I’m willing to bet you’d do a better job.

I think I remember Brooke Shields doing an act where she walked on broken glass, and they zoomed in because she actually sliced her ankle and was bleeding when she did it. She still finished, though!

The '70s actually had a lot of shows whose premise was: Actors who have nothing better to do anymore.

Besides shows like this, there was The Love Boat and Fantasy Island.
