In the late 1950s, a fresh, unconventional style of standup comedy emerged in sharp contrast to the standard "Take my wife, please" approach. It tackled such previously taboo subjects as sex, religion, drugs, and politics, and ushered in an avant-garde era of comedy that was decidedly more cerebral, satirical, and improvisational than before. Here are many of the maverick comedians who took those big risks years ago and paved the way for today’s current crop of outrageous, in-your-face comics. Many of these rare television performances have not been seen in 30 or 40 years.

Here Today is a May-September romantic comedy - but without the romance.

...the electricity of opening day ...a kid's awe at his first big-league game ...the close-up presence of heroes, heroes and more heroes. It's all here in GRAND SLAM!, an exciting new and original tribute to baseball and 37 of its greatest living legends. Join them, guest star Billy Crystal and host Dick Schapp, ABC-TV national sports correspondent, as they share insights, opinions and surprising revelations, interwoven with some of the most amazing baseball action footage you'll ever see! Plus a superb soundtrack of original songs composed by award-winner Bill Conti ("Rocky," "The Karate Kid,") with vocals by Roberta Flack, Isaac Hayes, Little Richard and Ashford & Simpson. It's that rare kind of program that will make you want to see it over and over again!
