The Hart and Lorne Terrific Hour is a Canadian television variety show that aired on CBC Television in 1970 and 1971.
The show starred Lorne Michaels and Hart Pomerantz. The cast also included Dan Aykroyd, Paul Bradley, and Victor Garber. The show mixed comedy sketches with musical guests, in a manner similar to Laugh-In or Michaels' later Saturday Night Live.
The show aired on Saturday nights, following the hugely successful Hockey Night in Canada. However, the hockey game would often run over its allotted time, and shorten or completely eliminate the airing of the Terrific Hour.
