Hi, so I need to try to find out who the sponsor was for the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour from the 1960s, but I am not enough of a TV geek to know through what channels to look (pun not intended). If any of you knowledgable folks can point me in the right direction, I would much appreciate it!:cheers:

Hi.....thanks for your response.

How did you find this out?

What I'm trying to find out if Oldsmobile was one of the sponsors. It may also matter for what year(s). I really have no idea how to find this stuff out - even went on Newspapers.com and it's impossible to go through every item because a lot of them are TV listings, but I can eye things that may stand out . . . and they've been nothing.
