Glen's TV/Video apperances are widley ranged & too much to list, but a good place to start with his IMDB site.

This is a rare-to-find television program in which Glen appeared:

Bob Hope Special "Joys"

It originally aired on NBC on March 5, 1976.

Here's the premise of this special show: In a spoof of the movie, "Jaws", 47 celebrity guests are invited by someone to a party at Bob Hope's house without his knowing it! Worse, these guests appear...and then "disappear"! The guests are mostly comedians and/or well-known names of the times such as Glen Campbell, Don Adams, Desi Arnaz, Milton Berle, Charo, Angie Dickinson, Mike Connors, Phyllis Diller, Don Knotts, Sid Caesar, Les Brown, Dean Martin, Groucho Marx, and more!

This is a link to the program's description in imdb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0164066/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Well regardless of the original intention for this topic I for one would be very interested in a (perhaps even chronological) overview of Glen's television work. That massive part of Glen's body of work is not very well known. Glen has appeared in countless tvshows, specials, series, etc. as host and/or performer.

I often think when i come across something on youtube, that Glen's best performances of a certain song were done, live, on television.

Could you give us more information about this subject, Siblis?

I don't understand the question? Do you mean promo video's Glen has done over the years or are you referring to TV Specials, Shows, Movies, etc......

Post here about Glen's videography.
