Been watching 70s stuff last night and some today. Mostly Tonight Shows. Not the first time. Getting big time 70s nostalgia. This one is too funny. Great chemistry between all. Totally forgot how awesome Dom DeLuise was.
I bet it is hilarious!
I just skimmed it - Glen Campbell certainly had perfect hair for that era - loved him!
I watched most of it. I didn’t find it particularly funny.
The perps were having a good time.
Fun to wtch.

The Friars Club Roasts were the best from that decade.
He had the hair going on, didn’t he? My oldest brother, who was a teen in the 70s, tried to mimic his look.
Love those, too.

Back when the left had a sense of humor. They wouldn’t last 5 mins in Hollywierd anymore.
I’ve watched a little Carson lately, mostly Carnac. I showed my wife the “Hu’s on the Phone” skit a couple weeks ago and she just about cried.
The Dom in Deluise was probably for Dominic, a common Italian name for boys. I’ll bet he got tired of correcting people who called him Don. He seemed like the type to get flustered very easily. Dom used to appear as a guest on a radio progam on either KGO or KSFO. It was a Sunday Morning show, the hosts were two brothers who were fix-it specialists. Lots of free advice for call-in listeners. Dom knew a great deal about wine grapes and indoor gardens made of seasoning plants, such as thyme or basil.
No they don’t. Today’s actors, comics, act like they are supreme, as if no one came before them. They have a lot to learn, most of all appreciation and humility.

He also loved to cook. My Father and sister met him once at a hotel just outside Chicago, the meeting was set up by an actor friend of my father. He liked to cook his own meals in the hotel so my sister gave him a Zucchini as a gift. They had a great time meeting him and he was a real nice guy.
