On August 1, 1971, American audiences got their first taste of a show they would soon consider essential viewing. The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour premiered on CBS featuring the beloved husband-and-wife musical duo performing their hit songs and side-splitting sketches with must-see guest stars. Over the course of four seasons, Sonny and Cher would redefine what a variety show could be as they cemented their place in television history. Now you can watch from the beginning with the pilot episode, firsts of many classic sketches, and the chemistry that started it all.
