Puppet People was a TV series produced from 1973-1975 at CFCF-TV Montreal and telecast on most CTV affiliates throughout Canada. It was hosted by ventriloquist Jerry Layne who worked with his "friends" Lester and Herbie, puppets created for the show. Puppet People combined pre-taped comedy sketches featuring a cast of full size figures. These sketches were played into a game show featuring children answering questions based on the sketches. Live Studio Audience Puppet People was free to attend for a live studio audience, I am writing this paragraph as one who used to go to tappings as a child especially on my birthday to the studios of CFCF at 405 Ogilvy Avenue in Montreal. The opening theme was played on Kazoos by kids in the audience including a chant of "Puppet People, Puppet People, Puppet People" then the kazoos would go "do do do do, do do do do do ..." ending with a cheer. The series was the first production for producer/director Sidney M. Cohen. The Lester puppet once appeared on an episode of The Love Boat.
