Rock et Belles Oreilles

Rock et Belles Oreilles (RBO) was a Canadian radio, television, and stage comedy group popular in the primarily French-speaking province of Quebec during the 1980s and 1990s.

Their name was a pun on the Hanna-Barbera blue dog character Huckleberry Hound ("Roquet Belles Oreilles" in French).

The group was formed in 1981, with the original lineup consisting of Guy A. Lepage, Yves P. Pelletier, Bruno Landry, André Ducharme, Richard Z. Sirois, and Chantal Francke [fr].

[3] In 1986, RBO were given a contract by Guy Fournier, director of programming at Télévision Quatre Saisons, to produce a television show, giving the group significant freedom to air their creativity.

Following their departure from television, RBO embarked on a two-year tour of Quebec and New Brunswick, titled Bêtes de scène.

On 15 May 2021, Noovo presented a 60-minute special titled TOP 40 about the group, comprising an anthology of their best sketches, appearances, and interviews of the past forty years.
