Rock Hudson and Beatrice Arthur do a pleasant little number about the popularity of mind-altering substances, "Everybody Today Is Turning On" in a 1979 CBS variety show, The Beatrice Arthur Special. The song — music by Cy Coleman; lyrics and book by Michael Stewart — is from the Broadway musical I Love My Wife (1977-79), directed by Arthur’s then-husband Gene Saks (Cactus Flower).

More details on The Beatrice Arthur Special in Ken Mandelbaum’s article "Obscure Videos: ’70s Specials."
