America 2Night is a talk show parody that ran in syndication in 1978. Produced by Norman Lear, it is actually the second season of Fernwood 2Night. The locale has been moved to California to make it easier for celebrities to drop in. As in F2N, Barth Gimble is the host and Jerry Hubbard is his co-host. The music is provided by Happy Kyne and the Mirth-Makers.moreless
Martin Mull is great as Barth, who\\\'s troubles in Miami are often hinted at by his room-temperature-IQ sidekick, Jerry. Guests include a barbershop \\\"trio\\\" that sings Rolling Stones songs?!?!?!? An optometrist who prescribes pot to those 4 out of every 5 of his patients who are diagnosed with glaucoma?!?!?!?! If you have a quirky sense of humor, you\\\'ll love this show!!!
