Was this only shown in Canada?

It ran in syndication in many U.S. television markets throughout the 1970s, and some places into the 1980s. I'm not sure if it's on currently anywhere though.

I grew up in Detroit, Michigan, and I remember "THHOF" being shown from the mid 1970's to the early 1980's.

Cheers!

I grew up in Niagara Falls, NY. I remember this show! I was discussing kids shows with someone who had no idea wtf I was talking about.

There is a running gag in these parts, wherein you meet someone abroad who, finding out that you're Canadian, mentions a cousin in some obscure little town, (or Toronto) and asks if you know him; Canada is a very, very big country.
In the early 70s television programming was still mostly local, except for the stuff that came from the US, which was often local, to them, and you only got that if you lived close to the border.
If the CBC didn't produce this show, it would only be known in Upper Canada, (southern Ontario) where it was filmed. Any of you Ontarians remember "Pete's Place?"
There is a trivia comment on Vincent Price's page, which states that he is best known in Canada for having done the one voice-over on this obscure bit of regional TV, hardly. I was fourteen in 1971, and watched television for about nine hours a day, and I've never heard of this show and certainly not this one episode; the name Billy Van rings a bell though, probably from Sonny and Cher.

FYI this show still airs in repeats on the Drive-In Channel in Canada.

I grew up in Buffalo, and used to watch it on a Canadian channel, but it was on really, really early. I think 5 or 6 a.m.

I remember watching it in Northeast Ohio in the summer of 1984.
