Sketch comedy show with potential.

This is a failed pilot, but not a bad early outing for Reiner, Guest, et al. Reiner is terrific in a brilliant sketch where he plays Hitler on trial. The show also features an early performance of Spinal Tap. There are some dead moments where they dress is gratuitous drag and basically rip off the so-called "pepperpot" characters from Monty Python. I guess with Saturday Night Live and SCTV, network tv figured they didn't need another sketch show.

ABC Announcer: Thursday is comedy night on ABC. First, a terrorist takes over the van on Three Girls and a Van. Then, pandemonium breaks out when Uncle Joe thinks he might be a Negro on Uncle Joe's Diner. Then, it's a surprise party and you're all invited: America's First All-Girl Fire Station, home of the Girls in Red. Then, there's trouble for Mickey when the car won't start on prom night on Trouble for Mickey. It all begins at 8 / 7 Central Time, right here.
