The Billy O'Connor Show was a Canadian variety television series which aired on CBC Television from 1954 to 1956. A post-hockey variety show with Billy O’Connor and his trio (Jackie Richardson on bass, Vic Centro on accordion, and Kenny Gill on guitar), produced by Bob Jarvis and Drew Crossan. On August 20, 1955, Juliette made her first regular appearance on the show. Initially part of the ensemble, conflicts between Juliette and O'Connor led to her departure. CBC then created a show centred around her. The program also featured singer Jack Duffy, comic actor, pianist Bill Isbister, and the musical talents of Jackie Richardson, Vic Centro, and Kenny Gill.
