You saw a whimsical tap dance by Bobby and Elaine on The Lawrence Welk Show, inspired by Close Encounters of the Third Kind's theme, with sci-fi costumes and sets.

The show's annual gross was $3.5-4M in the 1970s, with ~$2.5M in operational costs.

Welk earned over $3M yearly then, equivalent to $20M today.
