Super Dave

Super Dave is a Canadian/American variety show starring and hosted by the fictional character Super Dave Osborne. It ran from 1987 to 1991 on Showtime in the US and the Global Television Network in Canada. Super Dave was spun off from the sketch comedy series Bizarre, which featured Bob Einstein in recurring roles, including Super Dave. Super Dave made his first appearance on the 1972 TV series The John Byner Comedy Hour. Einstein then regularly played the character on the short-lived 1976 variety show Van Dyke and Company starring Dick Van Dyke.

Super Dave opens the show introducing the "Super Dave Wheel Of Good Fortune" contest, where chosen contestant Rusty Lightbody will take part. Super talks to Herb Normis and Louise Duart, who claim they can channel people. Liberty Silver sings "Let It Begin Tonight". Super then returns to the contest, where he will be strapped to the wheel as it spins, and Gary, the head of the Super Dave Archery School, will shoot arrows at him. When an arrow hits any of the prizes on the wheel, be it $500, a Mike Walden Wardrobe, or lunch with Fuji, Rusty will win that prize.
