Buckshot Show

Buckshot Show

The "Buckshot Show" was a long-running local children's programme that aired on CFCN television in Calgary, Alberta, Canada from 1967 to 1997. From 1967 to 1992 it was a daily program, airing at noon. From 1992 to 1997 it aired Saturdays. At the time of its cancellation it was the longest-running children's TV show in Canadian history.

The show's host, the avuncular, cowboy-hatted Buck Shot, was played by Calgary entertainer Ron Barge. Other characters included Benny the Bear, Clyde the Owl and Farley, all performed by puppeteers Jim Lewis and Phil Gordon-Cooper. Legendary Calgarian Tom Elder was on the show in September of 1986.
