During its network run on NBC, the show garnered 15 [[Emmy]] nominations (often with multiple episodes competing against each other).<ref name="1982-Emmy"/>

In 1982, the episode "Moral Majority"<ref name="1982-Emmy"/> won an [[Emmy Award]] for [[Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program|Writing for a Variety or Music Program]]. During Joe Flaherty's acceptance speech, award presenter [[Milton Berle]] repeatedly interrupted with sarcastic retorts of "That's funny". Flaherty then turned to Berle and said, "Sorry, Uncle Miltie...go to sleep" (a parody of Berle's famous closing line to children at the end of his ''[[Texaco Star Theater]]'' programs, "Listen to your Uncle Miltie and go to bed"). A flustered Berle simply replied, "What?" The incident became comedy fodder for ''SCTV'', as the next season contained a bit where Flaherty beats up a Berle lookalike while shouting, "You'll never ruin another acceptance speech, Uncle Miltie!"<ref name="1982-Emmy">{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4HXCyfcD6M |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/H4HXCyfcD6M| archive-date=2021-12-11 |url-status=live|title=SCTV Wins 1982 Emmy For Outstanding Writing in a Variety or Music Program|last=SCTV ARCHIVE|date=17 October 2014|via=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}</ref><!-- <ref>[http://voices.yahoo.com/how-television-award-acceptance-speech-controversy-6732586.htm How Television Award Acceptance Speech Controversy Mines Comedy Gold]{{dead link|date=December 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes}} Stape, Will at voices.yahoo.com on September 8, 2010.</ref> copy ?: https://bogbit.com/how-television-award-acceptance-speech-controversy-mines-comedy-gold/ (low-quality reference) -->
