Premise

This Vancouver-produced series featured sibling vocalists Judy Ginn and Jim Walchuk, leading a mix of comedy and music material with an emphasis on Ukrainian culture. Its 1973 run was three episodes, part of a block of mid-season variety programming originating from various Canadian cities. Bobby Hales was the series music director and house band leader, supported by musical trio Pat Hervey, Joani Taylor and Michael Vincent.[1]

A second run of seven episodes was broadcast in 1977, also produced in Vancouver. Juliette appeared on the 9 September 1977 broadcast with the Cheremshyna Ukrainian Dancers.[2]

The second series was broadcast Fridays at 7:30 p.m. from 29 July to 16 September 1977, also a half-hour timeslot, totalling seven episodes (the 19 August 1977 time slot was pre-empted for a Canada Games report).[3]
