Sha na" target="_blank">Na na" target="_blank">Na is a syndicated television variety series that ran from 1977 to 1981 for a total of 97 episodes, hosted by the popular rock & roll/comedy group of the same name. The show was produced by Pierre Cossette and originally distributed by the Lexington Broadcast Services Company. Each episode ran for 22 minutes. Reruns continued to air in syndication through the 1982-1983 television season, after which the series left most markets.
The show featured the group performing hits from the 1950s and 1960s along with comedy skits along the show's nostalgic theme but with a contemporary twist, with performances from that era's well-known acts as well as popular acts of the 1970s. Among the supporting cast members featured in the series were: Jane Dulo, Pamela Myers, Avery Schreiber, Kenneth Mars and Phil Roth (Season 1); June Gable and Soupy Sales (Seasons 2 to 4); Michael Sklar (Season 2); and Karen Hartman (Season 4).

Quotes
During the shows' opening after the cast and guests are mentioned Myers kicks off the show by saying "And now, here they are, all greased up and ready to sing their brains out, Sha na" target="_blank">Na na" target="_blank">Na!" while Jon "Bowzer" Bauman would close out each show by saying "Good night, and grease for peace!" with Sha na" target="_blank">Na na" target="_blank">Na singing "Goodnight, Sweetheart, Goodnight" as their closing theme song. Myers would announce as a disclaimer "This show has been previously recorded," to which was appended sarcastically "so it could be destroyed in time!" On later shows it would be appended with in an equally snarky tone, "Why? I dunno!"
