Parlez-moi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Parlez-moi (French for "Talk To Me") was an educational television series which was produced and broadcast by TVOntario from 1978 to 1980, with repeat broadcasts for several years afterwards. The host was Marc Favreau, who also played Sol the Clown.

[edit] Format
Each episode would begin with Favreau appearing as himself, speaking in English, and introducing several French words and phrases. This was followed by a fragment of a comedy sketch, in which all of the dialogue was in French, and which featured Sol using the terms introduced by Favreau. After the sketch, the terms would appear by themselves on the screen, while Favreau's voice could be heard reciting them. These segments would be repeated several times during the episode, and the episode would conclude by showing the entire Sol sketch, uninterrupted.
