	BBC - Comedy Guide - The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour
		Tom Smothers (born in New York City on 2 February 1937) and his brother Dick (ditto, 20 November 1939) released a number of albums in the early- to mid-1960s, combining comedy with a little music (the older brother played guitar, the younger one bass).
		The Smothers' determination to present this type of material infuriated and deeply embarrassed the conservative CBS network, and its in-house censors clashed many times with the brothers, excising not just lines and jokes but whole sketches, segments and songs from their pre-recorded shows.
		This move was the last straw for the network, which promptly cancelled the show, despite its high ratings, and refused to rescind its decision in the face of the subsequent public outcry.

		The Smothers Brothers were guests when the Television Academy saluted 25 years of television in 1972.

		With little to lose, NBC let Tommy Smothers take over as producer of the last four shows left in their thirteen week contract and these programs were excellent, maybe the finest variety hours produced during the Seventies.
