Talk of the Town was a short lived comedy and talk show performed at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1982 and aired on cable television. Directed by Doug Raymond and hosted by comedienne Jaye P. Morgan, Talk of the Town was primarily a talk-show in which some guests performed short stand-up comedy routines before joining a panel. Other guests simply joined the panel for discussion of their personal lives and careers. Discussion often included sexually oriented jokes, insults and gossip with Morgan and her co-host comedian Jack Cooper.
Morgan often emphasized the unscripted and adult nature of the show. In the first of the video episodes she introduces the show as Talk of the Town as "The most adult show on television. It's going to shock you, turn you on, turn you off, but it will make you think and see and experience. You will see things on this show that will surprise you, shock you, so kick back, brush away those conservative cobwebs..."

Passport to Adventure, later titled Passport, was a Canadian movie television series which aired on CBC Television from 1965 to 1967.
The series, hosted by Elwy Yost, would present American and British films of the 1930s through to the 1960s subdivided for broadcast into serial format during each week. The series can be perceived as a viewer's digest of some of the best films ever to have been produced up to that time. Episodes included interviews with actors and film experts such as Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Elwood Glover, Arthur Treacher and Willard Van Dyke.

The Sunday Show is a British television entertainment programme that was broadcast live on Sunday lunchtimes on BBC Two between 1995 and 1997. Four series of the show were produced. Donna McPhail and Katie Puckrik hosted the first two series, Puckrik was replaced by Paul Tonkinson for the third series. For the fourth, Tonkinson hosted with Jenny Ross, previously the show's soap opera reviewer.
The show is best remembered for giving breaks to two young comedians who went on to greater success: Paul Kaye, who appeared each week in his Dennis Pennis character, attending premieres and other events, and throwing absurd questions at the gathered celebrities; and Peter Kay who presented a regular "World of Entertainment" slot ostensibly reviewing TV and film but in practice simply a vehicle for his stand-up comedy act.
Other regular contributors included Kevin Eldon in different guises, including 'Guy Boudelaire' & 'Dr Brebner', and Happy Mondays' dancer/mascot/percussionist Bez in a weekly "Science With Bez" slot.
Extreme fishermen, Leigh Hart and Jason Hoyte, have put their heads together to create NZ's most high octane fishing show! Unfortunately they don't catch much which then gives them the title of the worlds most sustainable fishing show!
