Saturday Night Live With Howard Cosell was a program that ran on ABC from 1975 to 1976, hosted by Howard Cosell.
A program called NBC's Saturday Night began. Once Cosell's show was cancelled, it renamed itself Saturday Night Live.
John Lennon and Yoko Ono were fans of Cosell, and wanted to appear on Saturday Night Live. They never made the premiere episode, on which Lennon and Ono hoped The Beatles would reunite. Instead, Cosell played host to the Bay City Rollers, who he dubbed "the next" British phenomeon.
