CTV shifted from daytime game shows in 1976, hiring Alan Hamel for their first daytime talk show. Known for his earlier CBC successes, he'd also thrived in U.S. hosting and producing roles. Produced at BCTV Vancouver, the Alan Hamel Show attracted LA showbiz friends, including his wife Suzanne Somers. Airing from 1976 to 1980, it ran Monday through Friday, initially 2:00-3:00 pm and later shifted to 1:30 pm in the 1979-80 season due to NBC's schedule expansion."
