June 15, 1969-September 7, 1969; December 17, 1969-July 13, 1971 (CBS); 1971-1992 (Syndicated). "Hee Haw" was a fast-paced mixture of songs, skits, blackouts, and corny jokes. A syndicated version of the show appeared; by 1977 it was the nation's number-one-rated non-network show. The series was co-hosted by Buck Owens and Roy Clark (by the late 1980s, Owens and Clark appeared only occasionally, having made room for various guest hosts). A large stable of regular performers have been featured, including Louis M. ("Grandpa") Jones, Junior Samples, Jeannine Riley, Lulu Roman, David Akeman ("Stringbean"), Sherry Miles, Lisa Todd, Minnie Pearl, Gordie Tapp, Diana Scott, Cathy Baker and Barbi Benton.

June 28, 1973-August 16, 1973. Helen Reddy hosted this variety hour, a summer replacement for "The Flip Wilson Show."

The Temptations and singer-com poser Kenny Rankin join Helen for a musical hour, peppered with comedy by George Carlin and mellowed with a poetry recitation from "Ego Tripping" by actress Cicely Tyson. 

Helen interviews fictitious character, Josh Wallace, played by George Carlin who states he discovered Jonathan Livingston Seagull. 
At the end of the program all take questions from the audiences.

Helen Reddy - Has a house boy called George...first recording in Chicago in 1967...why referred God as a She. 

George Carlin - Why he writes his own material...why he has grown his hair long now...a class clown in school.

Cecily Tyson - Best ever role she has ever played, "Sounder."...currently about to do a new film very excited about.
