One of the continuing comedy sketch routines was a blimp's bottom pilot command compartment. The set piece was constructed, (because of weight factor), in aluminum tubing and sheeting, because of the count of actors who had to be inside the compartment. The overweight comedy team of actors that had to hang inside the balloon cage (6x average weight @ 250#=1,500) And swing while performing their funnies. Albert J. Simon, Producer, said to the Production Designer, when the set piece was delivered to the Warner Brothers Stage, "that thing cost as much as a Mercedes Convertible" .... And in 1976, his car cost him more than just $9,000.00. The set was used once. Two days afterwards, the show was dumped because of bad/poor daytime syndicated ratings. The program could be viewed in Los Angeles only if your TV-rabbit ears could receive a San Diego TV station signal.
Lorenzo Music performed the elevator man's voice on the Mary Tyler Moore show. His show-biz support team envisioned Lorenzo being successful in his own talk-variety television program. They partly put money into this joint effort. Originally conceived as host, Lorenzo Music, and his wife, Henrietta, sharing the couch, interviewing guests, music guests who performed solo or with a small back-up pit band. Bleachers provided seating for 200 audience members. The Warner Brothers Stage 5 provided a prop room, adjacent wardrobe room, a writers' office, dressing rooms, producers office area, which surrounded the set centered as the staging space. A small comedy performance cast for sketch routines, completed the production crew, including Lorenzo and Henrietta. The premise for the show was a Saturday-night-live (syndicated) day time filler show. A writing crew, whose material usually fell flat, could not keep the sketches from bombing. The daily show had difficulty scheduling and meeting deadlines in finding talent to appear on the show's schedule. Most guests appearing, as a favor for Lorenzo, to help getting the show done. The show lasted three weeks with the plug pulled on Wednesday morning.
The period of advance promos for the show lasted longer than the show itself was on the air.
