Way back in the Seventies, when Gilda Radner was just beginning there was this funky little one hour rock opera 'Jack: A Flash Fantasy'. It is best described as 'cute'! The story is about the Jacks in a deck of cards. The "Jack of Diamonds" was business-like and a slick talent agent. The "Jack of Clubs" was Jerry Sroka who was goofy and funny. The "Jack of Spades" was the Hard Rock bad guy of the show. The "Jack of Hearts" played by Victor Garber who played the sweet innocent country bumpkin. Each Jack had a "Jill". The "Jill of Hearts" was Gilda Radner. She was sweet in the role. Overall the show was like an intelligent high school production. I saw this show once again on the Canadian Movie channel in the mid-nineties. Unfortunately I didn't get to tape it. It was worthwhile watching of a Canadian cast.
