Of the stars of “Laugh-in” in this clip: Ruth Buzzi and JoAnn Worley are still with us, but Dan Rowen, Dick Martin, Alan Sues, and Arte Johnson have all departed the stage -as has the great Peter Sellers. Thanks to all for their comedy.
I loved Arte Johnson’s “Verry innterrestink” schtick as Wolfgang. This one with Peter Sellers was classic!
You forgot the great GOLDIE HAWN.
@@colinwilliams553 No, haven’t forgotten Goldie Hawn nor so many other regulars -not to mention guests- over the five year run of Laugh-in. Just commented on those who acted in this clip.
That was a GREAT SHOW. My whole family would gather around every episode.
Peters line about the tea in Boston harbour was spot on 🇬🇧😊
All these years later and Laugh-In is still funny as hell! 🤣
Jews are funny in a funny sort of way
The first coupla minutes of these clips, yes. The rest of it falls flat. Johnson and Sellers were a natural duo.
I used to watch Laugh In as a kid, most of the humor went over my head and now in 2023 most of the humor is still going over my head, lol.
Hilarious
Lol I am pretty sure that it's just not funny.
Peter and Arte bounced off each other very well. One of the funniest Laugh-In moments.
Generally loved Laugh-In. My Momma and I used to watch it together. She laughed hysterically. Happy memories.😂❤.
A master of his craft.
They sure don't make great shows like this anymore! Loved watching Laugh-In when I was growing up!
Peter used about 4-5 different accents (at least) in that clip. When he missed an episode of the Goon Show, it took four people to fill all the roles he played.
Believe it or not,those skits shocked and horrified many adults back then. Luckily many didn’t get the jokes. RIP Peter Sellers and all the others who have passed on ☮️
classic masterpiece of comedy
Sellers fit right in.
“A Goon in Downtown Burbank”
I say, jolly good show!🤓😎✌🏻🇬🇧💂pip pip!
Now this was verrry innnterestink.
Nein. It vaz schtupidt!
But, it was alzo innnterrstink.
Remember Richard Nixon's appearance..."Sock it to meee?". Lol. 😂
"Yes, we legalized them..." Sellers could take joke openings no one else saw and drive a tank through them! 😂😂😂
🤣
Funny show we never missed watching. lol
Pretty dang awesome ! The only other time I saw Peter Sellars guest star on an American TV show was on Julie Andrews' series in the early 70s (though actually that was produced over in the UK & also shown on Brit TV). Thanks for sharing !
He appeared on the first Tom Jones Show, which aired on ABC/Brit TV, as well as, The Dean Martin Show.
Also on Sykes with Hattie and Eric
Dr. Strangelove 😂🎉
Also RAF Group Captain Lionel Mandrake & POTUS Merkin Muffley
Peter Sellers was BRILLIANT in that movie. Perhaps his best ever. Being There was also a masterpiece. The Pink Panther movies as well.
"Very Interesting"
"But Verrry Stoooopid"
"Maybe you just aren't Cultured enough to appreciate how Interesting it is..."
"But! You are a Plebe to fall into the Stupid Ness Ness"
Also used to watch this as a kid w my family...Try showing this today on network TV...Good luck.
Well, for a start, you would have to find a sponsor... Good luck...
Right? @@mauricestevenson5740
@@mauricestevenson5740 It was considered pretty edgy at the time. Today even more so.
I have two TV's. I watch the news (sometimes), weather, sports, movies and nature documentaries but I NEVER watch anything else like scripted TV shows because there is nothing but garbage. I do also catch the occasional rerun from back in the day. I stopped watching scripted TV 30 years ago. 95% of all the movies they make today suck.
😂I loved this show!!
Fantastic. Brilliant actually
I loved this show! My dad and I would crack up over these skits. I was about 12/13 yrs old at this time and it was one of my favorite shows. What some people don't "get" or understand was that we were a nation in such turmoil. There was so much college campus unrest and violence...protests everywhere.... Vietnam....riots ruining our cities. We were still reeling and healing from the assassinations of JFK ..RFK... and Martin Luther King. We needed respite. Shows like Laugh-In provided some comedic relief that we needed to escape the daily violent news.
Thanks so much for your comment! We say it all the time, you have to watch this with an awareness of the context. At the time, it was groundbreaking for the topics it faced head on and always with humor. Well, we welcome you back! Thanks for watching!
@@LaughIn Exactly. People have to be aware of the times this show was set in. All In The Family got similar responses. But the fact of the matter is these shows tackled that era's problems and taboo subjects and brought them into light. People needed to be aware. The character Archie Bunker for example showed us just how ugly bigotry is....but in a comical way. We got the point though. And we weren't so overly sensitive and Apt to cry wolf over some of life's unpleasantries! Thank you for your show!! It was one of the funniest...on serious subjects...that ever was!
Right on, sister ✌️
Peter sellers was a genius.
People who worked Sellers though he was profoundly and chronically mentally ill, that he had no personality of his own -- just assumed the personalities of the characters he played. That's why he was always working, transitioning from one character to the next. He would work for next-to-nothing if he had to. He was actually a danger to himself when he was between jobs and didn't have a character to play.
Verrrry interesting...seriously. Never knew that 🤔
"For this was the mystery of Eccles?"
More like British humour, double entendres, and edgy quips. Loved it back then!😊
This Gen Xer ❤s me some Laugh-In!!!
Yay! Thanks for tuning in!
Very Interesting
Used to love watching this show as silly as it was.
It's nice to just be silly sometimes! We need more of it!
Gawd I miss that show.
Fun and hilarious.
Goldie sure added to the fun. People had a sense of Humor.
Today, people are offended by a common fart. Now snowflaws are flailing like a wounded cheezie,
Huh?
Watch him on the Dean Martin show he’s hilarious
Yes, the Brits are very fond of their queens. Especially Elton John.
Beyond legalizing him, they knighted him!!!
☮
Too much Clouseau in that German soldier.
very............. interesting?
@@knoxyish -- But Shtooppid.
--Even If you can find RHUME FOR YOUR BRHUME.
@beaumichael6359 --- And not enough Dr. Strangelove.
Ever felt like we are a fossil of by gone times? I get it now, Todays humor is so watered down it's just not funny. This show meant no harm but the people today.....
You're the other one😅
Artie Johnson would have made a great Goon, as this video shows.
🤣🤣🤣
Sellers is weating a navy helmet. The navy used the yellow decals.
Slapstick in the 70's.
I've tried watching Laugh-In so many times, and... I dunno, I don't get how people thought or think this stuff is funny. People clearly had different and uh, less sophisticated senses of humor back then.
I must be blessed, I find all comedy funny…..I just get it. Loved this as young teen.
You have to remember it was a big difference between the WW2 generation and the young hippies. And on top of that there's 4 or 5 stations/channels to watch and that was it. So it was hard to be risky or edgy with humor. Watch the tonight show with Johnny Carson. Omg growing up I thought it was the worst type of humor. Just a bore. But then Monty Python came around and then Steve Martin and then Saturday night live. But as someone that lived thru this era I agree with you. It doesn't hold up.
It wasn’t “less sophisticated,” comedy has evolved with time. Laugh In was just silliness & irreverence in the wake of the Vietnam War, Kent State, Woodstock, etc. Imagine, years from now, viewers of today’s comedy will likely find it “unsophisticated”.
@@onehalfspin Comedy is relative to an era. Still, when Genghis Khan employed his mongol entertainer and he came on stage, asking that eternal question: "What's the deal with farting"? I'm sure everyone laughed out loud.
Typical American attempt at humour - exaggerate and laugh manically, and that will make it funny...( NOT!)
🤪
Even Sellers could not save that drivel.
Sorry ,not funny
Thanks for your comment!
Rowan and Martin’s skits have not aged well.
Everyone writing comments disagrees with you. I'll bet if you state WHY they would disagree more strongly. No wonder you didn't get specific.
It wasn't funny then and it certainly isn't funny now.
😐
Very funny. That black people joke, however, not very funny.
Eh, it was funny back then. Integration in schools was a hot button issue.
It was sarcasm -Peter Sellers was using sarcasm to point out the racism of the late 1960s (or early 70s) in the U.S.
@@PC-kd7dj Yeah, I get all of that, but still...
@@skineyemin4276 As an outsider and a guest, he was able to do social commentary in a way that got the Smothers Brothers show cancelled, while allowing Laugh-In to remain on air. I was alive during those times, and it's hard to believe it, but at least there's open acknowledgment now. To a lot of people it was just a topic for late night comedians--in live comedy clubs only.
I was shocked and pleased to hear Sellers call out America in this way. Good for the show to take the risk.
Most of this clip doesn’t hold up. Just not funny.
sellers was a fake
