Overview
The show featured Cher interviewing various celebrity guests ranging from musicians, actors, and pop culture figures. The series also featured sketches and comedic field reports. Cher would also perform her songs along with a live band.
With her then-husband Sonny Bono, Cher had co-starred in The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour for CBS from 1971 to 1974, before the two divorced amid major bitterness and acrimony. Each partner would get their own series: Cher got this series on CBS, while Sonny (who got to keep all of the staff and intellectual property from the Comedy Hour) got The Sonny Comedy Revue. The two were to face each other head-to-head in the ratings, but ABC canceled the Revue before Cher premiered.
By the end of the season, Sonny and Cher had set aside their differences and agreed to reunite. Cher was immediately replaced by a revived The Sonny & Cher Show, with a new production and writing team. With Sonny, the show lasted until 1977.
