Telly... Who Loves Ya, Baby?

About This Movie

So, this is a TV special from 1976 featuring Telly Savalas at the peak of his Kojak fame. It's a variety show, right? You got singing, dancing, and a bunch of star cameos—Barbara Eden and Cloris Leachman are in there, along with Diahann Carroll. The pacing is pretty relaxed, typical of the variety format, but the whole thing feels kind of cozy, like a good blanket on a chilly night. It’s got that Kraft Foods sponsorship vibe, too, which adds a layer of nostalgia. The performances are what you'd expect from seasoned pros; they really lean into the comedy and musical numbers. Not your standard movie experience, but definitely a piece of the 70s cultural landscape.
