Leo & Liz in Beverly Hills is an American 1986 situation comedy broadcast Friday night at 8:30 p.m Eastern time by CBS starring Harvey Korman, Valerie Perrine, Sue Ball, and their lovable monkey Bernard.

The pilot for this program had been aired the fall before as part of George Burns Comedy Week. However, the program failed to deliver an audience as a mid season replacement and was canceled after only six regular weekly episodes were aired.
