The special consists of a series of performances and skits based around the shows of Sid and Marty Krofft:
Originally the special was broadcast in an hour-long timeslot with a total running time of 50 minutes (sans commercials). In 1995, Nick at Nite aired the special in a half-hour timeslot during their "Pufapalooza" marathon. This version was missing the opening sequence (Billy Barty and other little people prepared the stage) and all of the scenes with Witchiepoo and Hoodoo. The special later aired frequently in an hour-long timeslot on TV Land with some minor trims to compensate for increased commercial time.
The uncut version of the special was released on VHS by Rhino Home Video in 1997 under the title H.R. Pufnstuf Live at the Hollywood Bowl.
