This volume offers nine 90-minute shows from the fourth season to feed the demand for more SCTV. Broadcast on NBC in 1982, these episodes introduce new cast member Martin Short and chronicle the height of success for characters Bob & Doug. It is here where The Shmenge Brothers (John Candy and Eugene Levy) make their first appearance and the Great White North gets the "special" treatment in the "Great White North Palace" featuring Tony Bennett - an episode later nominated for a writing Emmy®. Celebrities Bill Murray and Carl Perkins join the fray and musical guests Bennett, Jimmy Buffett and Hall And Oates offer classic performances. Commentaries, interviews and other special features round out another stellar collection.
