The first episode of Saturday Night Live (originally NBC's Saturday Night) is on YouTube. It was broadcast on October 11, 1975, less than six months after the fall of Saigon and the end of the Vietnam War. It's worth checking out because everyone involved, from cast to writers, were clearly influenced by the political and social upheaval in the U.S. of that turbulent era, perhaps making it relevant to today's political moment.
