Our Place was an American musical variety show that aired on CBS during the summer of 1967. The official "host" was one of Jim Henson's early Muppets, Rowlf the Dog. The show's other regulars were comedians Jack Burns and Avery Schreiber and the singing Doodletown Pipers.
Jim Henson showcased some of his early Muppets, the most regular member of the Our Place cast being Rowlf the talking dog. He actually co-hosted the show with B&S. Talk about a big break for Rowlf! Our Place kicked open the door for the mutt who'd later find greater fame in a 1970s series featuring him and his other Muppet pals. Jack Burns, would be head writer for the first season of The Muppet Show (Syndicated, 1976-1981).
Each episode featured a guest, Carol Burnett receiving the honor in the debut which aired Sunday, July 2, 1967 @ 9:00pm EDT. Other guests included Arthur Godfrey, Woody Allen, Soupy Sales, Nipsey Russell, Eddie Albert, Dick Shawn, Shelley Berman, Cyril Richard, and Joel Gray.
The executive producer was Bob Precht who produced The Ed Sullivan Show and was also Sullivan's son-in-law. Bill Angelos and Buz Kohan wrote and produced the show and John Moffitt was the director.
