Brill and McCall performed sketch comedy on The Ed Sullivan Show on the same episode as The Beatles' first appearance on February 9, 1964. They were interviewed in 2005 for the "Big Break" episode of PRI radio program This American Life regarding their Beatles-Sullivan experience, including a dressing room encounter with John Lennon.[3]
In 1968 and 1969, Brill and McCall appeared on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In, but only as the violently bickering couple in "The Fun Couple" sketches. Brill was a frequent panelist, along with McCall, on the 1970’s celebrity-couples game show Tattletales.[citation needed] Brill portrayed Robert, the hairdresser on the short-lived 1979 NBC series, Supertrain.
