NWFlyer 2 #3 April 11, 2008 I think all the redhead fetishists need to watch #45. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

sdctlc 0 #4 April 11, 2008 2 that come to mind first are from SNL: One of the best has to be the "More Cowbell" skit Simply OUTSTANDING... A classic that I think is funny is the Dan Aykroyd "Bass-O-Matic" skit I love the line "Wow, that's terrific bass!" Scott C. "He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

NWFlyer 2 #9 April 11, 2008 It's a list, and the videos are embedded in the list, which has descriptions underneath. The videos don't automatically launch, though."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

rehmwa 2 #10 April 11, 2008 It's a good list, and we can't all have the skits we like, and Monte Python did got good representation, as they clearly deserve. but I don't think I can forgive the lack of the "Fish Dance" from this list. ...

jimmytavino 16 #12 April 11, 2008 well speaking of Redheads... i scanned the whole list and unless i missed it, Lucille Ball wasn't among those named..... She and the cast of her old B & W TV show sure did some funny and clever comedy way back then..... surprising she's not listed... SNL .... "Fred Garvin"...( male prostitute) always cracked me up and Martin Short is long on talent... lots of funny stuff over the years, though it could have been the frame of mind of the viewers which added the extra zip to those sketches..... many many good comics..... M Python....very well received by my brothers and me back when it aired on TV during the summer evenings... Unique Brit humor... speaking of which,,!!! where is Benny Hill.... ?? THAT show was Funny !! and a real hoot.... hahahaha.. busty babes, lecherous old men,,, real good use of effects and visual gags.... hahahah.. I hear the B H song playing in my head, right now !!! some of those named are new to me so i'll check 'em out later... thanks for the list .... laughter is theraputicjmy ps nice avatar sunshine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popsjumper 2 #13 April 11, 2008 All you youngsters have probably never heard Abbott & Costallo doing "Who's on First". My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But we have heard of it. Give us some credit for basic cultural literacy. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.
