Bob Hope Special: Joys (1976)

In this spoof of Jaws (1975), nearly fifty comedians are mysteriously attacked and swallowed up, apparently by a great white shark.  Filmed in around Hope's Toluca Lake estate this special wasn't a brilliant piece of timeless television art, but it was a lot of fun and a showcase for some of the greatest entertainers of the twentieth century -- some in their final television appearances.
