There were no DVRs or streaming, Kids...not even a lowly VCR. So I actually used to break dates on Saturday nights to stay home and watch with my mom and dad.

Looking back on it, I made the right decision, trading the loser boyfriends for brilliant comedy. Only George Carlin is in the same stratosphere as Conway and Corman!

Never EVER watched Carol Burnett's show without bursting into laughter.

Tim Conway was the icing on the cake so to speak.

If indeed "laughter is the best medicine"

I been well medicated!!

Never to be duplicated again.

Used to love it when I was a kid, and still crack up when I see the videos!
