Solid Gold was a syndicated music series that debuted on September 13, 1980. Like many other shows of its genre, such as American Bandstand, Solid Gold featured musical performances and various other elements such as music videos. What set Solid Gold apart was a group of dancers in revealing costumes who at various points in the program performed various (and sometimes borderline risqué) dances to the top ten hits of the week. The series ran until July 23, 1988 and was usually broadcast on Saturdays in the early evening.

Solid Gold was created as part of Operation Prime Time, a consortium of American independent television stations with plans to develop prime time programming for independent stations.
