How many here remember that just a couple of years before SCTV (1976), many of the SCTV gang were regulars on THE DAVID STEINBERG SHOW? This Canadian-made sitcom taking place behind the scenes of the fictional David Steinberg Show, starring real life comic David Steinberg. Like the later Garry Shandling series, the show alternates between backstage antics and big-name guest stars on stage. The series is best remembered for co-starring many later comic powerhouses such as Joe Flaherty, John Candy, Martin Short, Andrea Martin and Dave Thomas, years before they did SCTV. Heres the only clip of the show I could find. It features Steinberg and Joe Flaherty. This was a recurring skit where Flaherty would appear as a different patient every week for an eccentric psychiatrist played by Steinberg. https://youtube/watch?v=7CXOgKMVSB4
