"Sharon, Lois & Bram's Elephant Show" ran for four years in the 1980s. It appears I was born in the middle of the show's run, so I obviously don't have any memory of the show from the days when it was current. However, reruns of the show were played for years after its cancellation, and I can remember seeing a lot of them from the early to mid-1990s (at least)!
The main characters in the show, of course, included Sharon, Lois & Bram, a performing musical trio for kids, both in the show and in real life. Other main characters included an elephant on two legs (you could tell this was a human in a costume), and Eric Nagler (another kids' performer, once again, both in the show and in real life). Each episode featured several kids, as well as an adult guest. In the show, whether at their house or somewhere else, Sharon, Lois & Bram, along with the others, would sing songs and have problems to solve.
I can remember listening to some of Sharon, Lois & Bram's albums during my childhood. They were a memorable trio. I also listened to Eric Nagler a lot (he was definitely responsible for a lot of the humour in "Sharon, Lois & Bram's Elephant Show"), and can remember seeing some episodes of his own show, "Eric's World", which came after this show's demise. One weekend, back in 1996, I got to see Eric live in concert when he came to perform in the gymnasium/auditorium of a school right in my neighbourhood!
In addition to those four kids' performers, the show had some good guests (some of which contributed songs to the episode), interesting adventures, and lessons to be taught to the young viewers. It has now been a while since my childhood, and even longer since I last watched this show, but the memories remain! I don't know if there are any stations out there that play reruns of "Sharon, Lois & Bram's Elephant Show", but if not, there should be, as I'm sure it would be an amazing experience for today's kids as well!
