Peep Show is a Canadian television series, which aired on CBC Television in 1975 and 1976.[1] The series, a 16-episode anthology of half-hour drama programs by new and emerging Canadian writers and directors,[1] was produced by George Bloomfield and Gerald Mayer.[2] The eleven programs produced by Bloomfield leaned more to experimentation, while the five produced by Mayer were more in the vein of traditional television.[3]
Programs that aired on Peep Show included Martin Lavut's Melony,[4] Clarke Mackey's Fight Night, David Cronenberg's The Lie Chair[5] and CODCO's Festering Forefathers and Running Sons.[4] Martin Short also had one of his earliest television appearances on the series,[6] in the episode Goldberg is Waiting.
The show was not renewed for a second season due to budget constraints.[7]
