Bobby Hales was the series music director and house band leader, supported by musical trio Pat Hervey, Joani Taylor and Michael Vincent.[1]

A second run of seven episodes was broadcast in 1977, also produced in Vancouver. Juliette appeared on the 9 September 1977 broadcast with the Cheremshyna Ukrainian Dancers.[2]
