That Was The Week That Was (TW3)
(1964-65 on NBC)

This cabaret-format show was very topical and often outrageous, lampooning the week's news.

What a great show that was. "The Daily Show" is its spiritual heir.

This is perhaps how I became familiar with Tom Lehrer, whose bitingly-humorous songs were featured on the show. Many of them, including "Vatican Rag" and "National Brotherhood Week", are on his album, That Was The Year That Was.
