Self-identified on the air by the cast as TW3.
Broadcast from the same NBC New York studio, long-established Jack Paar had a long running feud with this show, although his deep resentment never seemed to be explained by either show. Despite his true dislike, late in the 1964-65 season Paar had TW3 singer Nancy Ames guest star on his weekly program. Here Miss Ames sang "straight", rather than the satirical material she sang weekly on That Was The Week That Was.
To stay as current as possible, the show was broadcast live on the East Coast with portions of scripts given to the performers just minutes before air time.
Despite gaining something of a cult status in certain circles during its brief run, the program never drew much of an audience and soon left the air forever. This harkened up the old show business saying, "Satire is what closes on Saturday night."
Shortly after (and unrelated to) President Lyndon Johnson's landslide victory in November 1964, host David Frost started a show by apologizing for the program having made an unintentional factual error the week before. He then stated no one across the nation had noticed the factual error. He went on that tonight's show would also contain another factual error for the audience at home to catch. He then started his topical monologue, "Today in Washington President Goldwater said" before waiting for his huge laugh and telling everyone that was NOT the upcoming error.
