Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for spy-story fans and music lovers. Nobody is quite who they seem. Shelve it next to Grease Live.

Easygoing.
The pace
Never drags, at 52 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Made in 1976: an older pace and style.

In her first variety special, Olivia Newton-John performs with guests including Elliott Gould, Lynda Carter, Tom Bosley, Ron Howard and Lee Majors.
