	Actors - The Weird Al Show

The Weird Al Show was a short-lived television show starring "Weird Al" Yankovic. It aired Saturday mornings on the CBS TV network from September 1997 to September 1998.

CBS forced the show to fit its FCC requirements for education programming. Though the show appeared to be geared at children, the moralistic messages were interspersed with Yankovic's trademark slapstick parody and the humor, aimed at older audiences. The show was cancelled after one season.

The theme song can be found on Yankovic's Running With Scissors album, as "The Weird Al Show Theme". The show will be released on a 3-DVD set entitled The Weird Al Show - The Complete Series
on August 15, 2006, featuring all 13 episodes, plus extras.
