Full Episode Index

 

Torch Open/Opening Song: "Feeling Good" and "I Feel the Earth Move" (Audio Only)
Cover from The Roar of the Greasepaint – The Smell of the Crowd (1964)/Nina Simone (1965) and Carole King (1971)

Monologue: Cher talks censorship and the idea of a "Family Hour."

Skit: Cher and Rogers are two clowns in a wedding ceremony and they can't stop clowning.

Cher Solo "Puppet Man" and "It's Your Thing" (Video)
Cover of Neil Sedaka (1969)/The Fifth Dimension (1970) and The Isley Brothers (1969)
This is the only thing available right now to view from the episode. Which is a shame because this song creeps the shit out of me on many, many levels: the clowns okay (which is enough) but the set, the lyrics, the outfits, Cher's wig...I just can't. On the bright side, the dancers really get some time to shine here.

Skit:
Walker plays a temp hotline employee taking calls for advice.

Cher Solo 2: "Until It's Time for You To Go" (Audio only)
Cover of Buffy Sainte-Marie (1965)
Is this a second solo spot? This was also on Cher's 1966 epoymous album Cher. This later version is a lot more both serene and melancholy at the same time oddly, just much more emotive than her 1960s performances.

"People in the News": Cher and Rogers are scientists studying people who live underwater.

Skit: Cher, Rogers and Walker "showcase their talents in this sketch about each other." Who knows what this was.

"The Corsican Sisters": Cher and Walker play identical twins suffering through each other's aches and pains.

Finale: A musical saluting the all-American hamburger. Sounds fun.

Close: Cher closes the show.

Highlights: Interesting new take on "Until It's Time For You To Go"
