It's amazing how NBC passed on this one.
Paul Lynde's only steady gig by 1976 was as the center square on Hollywood Squares, while periodically appearing on Donny & Marie. Still, ABC gave him his first and only primetime special, airing on Halloween weekend. The Osmond sibs make an appearance, unadvertised, plus Florence Henderson, KISS, Margaret Hamilton, Billy Barty, and Roz Kelly. Ernie Anderson is the announcer.
Yes, I previously screened this over at The Land of Whatever a ways back. This show aired on a Friday, and I wasn't home to see it, if memory serves. No rating.

Just watched this last night. It's hard to imagine that any producer today would kill to have the ratings this cavalcade of crap got.
Also, I confirmed that Peter Criss cannot play the piano, despite what you see in the Beth segment.
It was probably mimed.
