The Wackers were an AmericanElektra Records group formed in 1970 out of another Elektra band Roxy. Singer/songwriter Bob Segarini and multi-instrumentalist Randy Bishop disbanded Roxy and joined with singer-guitarist-keyboardist Michael Stull to form the new group. Bassist Bill 'Kootch' Trochim and drummer Spencer Earnshaw completed The Wackers lineup to record the debut album Wackering Heights, produced by Gary Usher. Following the success of the tracks "Travelin' Time" and "Body Go Round", the band toured Canada and the US.
The next year (1972), the band moved to Montreal, Canada around the time that they released their sophomore LP Hot Wacks to very good reviews. The album, recorded at Andre Perry Studios, featured "I Hardly Know Her Name" and a cover of John Lennon's "Oh My Love". Billboard, April 15, 1972, had this to say about "Hot Wacks":
Comparing them favorably to the Hollies, the Beatles, and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Bill Mann, Montreal Gazette, called The Wackers, "one of the tightest singing groups around," adding, "theirs is a vocal alphabet soup with a little bit of everything thrown in (with the letters spelling "Sho good listening")."

But Billy's got his work cut out: re-adjusting to the demands of domestic life is so much more difficult when half the family is Protestant, the other half Catholic, and there's a constant threat of verbal argy-bargy erupting between the true-blue Evertonians and the Liverpool Reds...

The Wackers - Forgotten Sitcoms
The Wackers didn't even complete it's first series back in 1975 before it got cancelled due to poor audience reaction. But why didn't it land with the viewers and how similar is it to Bread?
