Saw this on NBC in '77.
Bought the set at Amoeba SF about 4 years ago. Haven't watched it yet.

it's maybe the best TV sketch comedy i've seen. edgier than any comedy on TV now by far. so ambitious! one scene has african dancers doing an entire dance from start to finish, maybe 6 minutes or so of just drumming and joyous dancing.

oops, just four eps! each one's an hour, though. and there's a "special" which I haven't watched but apparently co-stars John Belushi.
The roast of Pryor in the last episode is pretty awesome. Paul Mooney was a smooth, good looking motherfucker. GOD DAMN.
And speaking of sexy, MARSHA WARFIELD. JESU CHRISTO.

Classic as hell, with the exception of this bit of insipid-ness:
