RIP Dick.

The writers of that show were genius in their ability to slip the subtle, wry, and double-entendre'd humor by the censors.
Dan Rowan's and Dick Martin's ability to deliver it with straight faces was key to that success.

I watched Laugh In back in the late 60s and with my husband after we married in 1972 (36 years this month)

"Here Comes the Judge"
"The Wall" at the end of show
Goldie Hawn/Judy Carne Dancing with body paint
"Walk on" guests (including Nixon)

Dick Martin will be sorely missed.

Irregardless of which, I am still profoundly allergic to hypoallergenic naugahyde......

(Not to mention plaid wash and wear/drip dry liesure suits)

I still remember waking up in the middle of a horrible nightmare because I was STUCK to a bean-bag that I slept on! In my dream - an ameoba was sucking the life out of me.

Truth was, it was so hot I was rapidly sweating my way into dehydration....


(DIGRESSION)
A friend of mine from Texas once said "It's hotter than a nekkid fat Lady on a VINYL COUCH!"

- I will never forgive him for that visual....
