Saturtainment: The Seven Wishes of Joanna Peabody (ABC Weekend Special, 1978)

 From season 2 of the ABC Weekend Special:

Film legend Butterfly McQueen made a rare television appearance in "The Seven Wishes of Joanna Peabody", the season 2 opener. McQueen is a fairy godmother that the title character (Star-Shemah) sees on her television.

Garrett Morris (Saturday Night Live) co-stars, plus a cameo of Monty Hall from Let's Make a Deal.


I believe Deal was in syndication at the time.
