Hee Haw 1969

Hee Haw was a television program in the late 1960s, that was supposed to be "family friendly", a bit cheesy, entertainment when the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour was cancelled due the controversial nature of some of the more political humor of the show. I just stumbled upon it on Youtube, but it's good for some throwback humor.

When Soul Train first launched in 1970, Black audiences weren’t understood as a viable target market. Don Cornelius changed that forever with his weekly TV dance show.
