FRIDAYS - The Numb Boys

ABC's answer to SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, the network launched this cutting-edge sketch and music show on, naturally, Friday evenings. A talented cast and crew, but it never caught on critically or popularly; it lasted for three seasons, 1980 - 1982.
In a sketch, janitors at a recording studio, The Three Stooges are mistaken for the rock group The Numb Boys. Anxious for a steady supply of cocaine and money, the Stooges play along with a crazy scheme to lip-synch their way to fame.
