“No, you’re not getting old my FRiend, I remember them together too and they were every bit as entertaining (perhaps more so) than the more famed team of Carson and McMahon.

I remember when Arthur Treacher joined the celebrities of the day by lending his name to a fish and chips franchise (who could forget Arthur Treacher’s F&C?), and I remember him saying that he wouldn’t let them use his name on anything that he wasn’t willing to eat at his own table. A truly class act, just like Merv.”

I’m 53, and I watched Treacher and Griffin when I was a kid. My parents loved the show, too!

We're of nearly identical vintage FRiend, I'd bet that Arthur is serving up something for Merv from this very selection tonight, lol:
