I saw him live once, I'm sure we all heard the same jokes before, but people were rolling in the aisles anyway. It was his delivery. Once he got the crowd laughing they couldn't stop.
Rodney said he suffered from depression most of his life. He certainly knew how to make us forget our own sorrows. I hope he knew how much he delighted his audience, & how much we appreciated & valued the gift of laughter he gave us! RIP, Rodney.
I saw a documentary about him. Wow, he had a rough childhood. He turned his sadness into laughs, but sometimes I hear a few of his jokes, I just feel sorry for him.
@@darrensiegel6651 that's true about him and other great comedians and what about the local people we know. Those around us who always make Wise cracks always like to joke around lifing other people's spirits up? Could that be a sign of hiding or coping with their own sadness and depression? I can see that in myself too always trying to make other people crack up when you notice that they're sad and they could use a little pick me up. Give us a sense of worth and enjoyment when you see other people laugh. And you see so many people have their own different ways of laughing. I always like enjoy watching them with the different ways they crack up when I make them laugh
When people kick around who's the greatest comedian all time The Usual Suspects are always mentioned Pryor, Carlin Now Dave Chappelle's name is in the mix. But as far as who made me laugh the most hands down it was Rodney.
Perfection every single time. The delivery, the timing, the body language, everything. He was a natural and I don't think we'll ever get someone like him again.
there are some great one-liner comedians, but they simply haven't got the delivery that Rodney had. The straightening of the tie was always so funny! The mentioning of his doctor, Dr. Vinny Boombats, was great! What a quack HE was! hahaha!
My wife and I saw him a year or so before he passed when we were in Vegas. It was no stop laughter, one joke after the next. The place was packed and everyone was laughing their asses off. Glad I got to see him. Rodney was the best.
Ohhh ... Hell Yeah, we had it good! ... even when I talk to my grandkids, they are shocked about how fun it was, and especially how we got more bang for our buck, and much else. Love this guy, Rodney!
He had a really ruff up bringing alot of people that do laiter in life they are the nicest people you wanna meet or the people who suffer from something that have Great hart's for others to put a smile on their face and make them happy their is an awesome quote from Robbin Williams on this if look it up he was amazing and really missed bye many in this world
I mean this guy is legendary and all, but Bernie Mac does his exact technique sometimes and is just as good. He’s the king for a reason. This guy is just really good at working a crowd with a joke every 2 seconds.(I know the video is edited but he pretty much is just as fast) But in the end that’s all he does. I didn’t even know people liked him like that. But after reading these comments I guess people like him. But it gets boring after 10min
It's interesting watching him progress through the various eras and stages of his career all in one video. You can literally see how he perfected his craft over the years. His delivery, timing, all of it, got hammered into its absolute best possible form. No fat, no filler, just pure funny. It's nowhere NEAR as easy as he made it look. That's the mark of a true master: Making the difficult appear effortless.
Everyone knew " No Respect " Dr Vinny Boombatz , How Ugly ? How Fat ? Those characteristic eyes !! I'd would laugh when you knew HE was holding back a laugh . Rodney , I am certain you are still at it .Thank You and RIP .
I agree, he wasn't that funny when he started out, and just got better and better. Louis CK is the same, he was a comedian for years and was pretty ordinary, then he hit his stride and really took off.
@@jesuguru2394: I was waiting for this joke in the video compilation. When it didn't appear, I looked for it in the comments. At least you got the joke.
That on really caught me off guard., I had a mouth full of coffee that went everywhere, but down my throat. What a mess. Thank you Rodney. It was definitely worth it. 😎
Met Rodney in1984or 1985 while I was Director of Operations at the Omni Berkshire hotel in NYC. He would come down in his bathrobe and hang out with the concierges and make them laugh quite a bit. Every joke or story was different, as though he was making them up at the spur of the moment - - comic genius AND a really nice guy. He is truly missed.
Rodney is a true comedy legend. Literally everything he’s said is always a joke and rapid fire. The man was way before his time and will always be remembered as one of the greatest.🙏
@@XCaliKev for one-liners its hard for me to pick a great. Steven Wright is up there for me just given the absurdity of his jokes. His later stuff isn't as good though. Don Rickles and Jimmy Carr are up there as well. I guess you could say my top five would be Dangerfield, Steven Wright, Don Rickles, Jimmy Carr and I suppose you can't have a list without Mitch Hedberg.
Rodney was like a steam roller, once he got rolling there was no stopping him, & he was always on a roll. Saw him live in Vegas in the seventies, my sides ached for two days. One of a very special breed of comics.
I never saw Rodney live, and I regret it so much. Saw Kinnison twice in Rochester NY….extraordinary. I go to see Gilbert any time he is near where I am. Saw him at Carolines in the big city……just incredible.
Yup, he was one of a kind, life was just brutal to him but he just kept on plugging away; man that's inspirational! Did see him live in 89 and he was unstoppable, not only worked with the crowd but he was just brutal to the hecklers....it was great. If you're going to heckle a comedian Rodney should be your last choice.
@@robertschiffler555 , I would be the kind of person that would roast everyone, left, right, middle, AND fringe alike, you know, if I had a sense of humor and if comedy clubs were not so uptight.
I laughed throughout this entire video. My dad laughed so hard at him once , he had to go outside to catch his breath. I have great memories of watching him on Johnny with my dad. RIP Rodney, we sure do miss the laughter 💖
There's no build up. The punch line comes within 5 seconds and there's no time to stop laughing. My Man and The Man of comedy. He nailed it!! We could really use you now!!!!!
This is true...y mother never breastfeed me she said she just wanted to be friends..omg..I fell out of my chair...he was the greatest..rapid fire delivery may he rest in peace Rodney 🙏.
He would be 100 tomorrow (22/11/1921) One of the greatest comedians to ever walk the earth. Helped make the careers of so many upcoming comics a reality. I hope he gets the bronze statue in his hometown.
The best 14 minutes and 47 seconds therapy I've ever had!!! Non-stop laughter🤣Really miss you Rodney. Thank God we have all this videos and your records.
What makes Rodney unique is what I call his "rapid fire" delivery. Most comedians tell and joke and get a laugh, then tell another joke, and so on. Rodney's jokes are like a machine gun. they're rapid and nonstop. He was truly one of kind.
They'll never be anyone better than Rodney Dangerfield when it comes to comedic timing!! If you don't stop laughing soon enough, he'll be two jokes ahead of you!! RESPECT and RIP Rodney!!
Rodney was a treasure. A real comedian, he didn't have to dazzle you with clever wordplay or stories, it was all the timing and delivery. He primes you to laugh and then delivers it. Brilliant stuff. And don't ever forget, he could sweat with the best of them. You can't teach sweat.
To your second sentence, I'd bet you get more laughter per minute from Rodney than anyone else. Simply because like you said, less story telling, word play, more punch lines. You have to pay good attention because he's so fast with his humor. Love 'em!
I only wish I could have met him & told him he made me laugh from the first time I ever heard him speak, and I'm still laughing at every joke. His delivery was perfect!!!
Rodney was one of the very greatest! Listening to this video, though, I think there's something missing. The ACT! There's something special to be had in the flow of his routine, that doesn't come through in these disconnected jokes.
I HEARD SOMEONE MENTION HE SAW RODNEY LIVE. PEOPLE WERE THROWING JOINTS ON STAGE. RODNEY PICKED UP THE BIGGEST JOINT AND SMOKED IT FOR THE REMAINING 45 MINUTES!!
At the lowest points of my life Rodney had me hysterically laughing, to this day when I'm down 5 minutes is all it takes for Rodney to make me feel better. RIP Rodney, and thank you for the laughs.
One of a kind. There'll never be another one like him. When I saw him in concert it was so hard to keep up with his rapid fire on liners. I hardly got started laughing at the 1st joke when I'm laughing at the next one and the next one until I laughed non stop the whole show. It took me a couple of days to recuperate from my side and voice being so sore. We sure need him now.
Thanks for the compilation. Rodney was a genius with his delivery of one liners! Absolutely incredible! I ran into him back in the 1980s at the LA airport. He was very nice and had everyone at the airport bar in tears of laughter! Such a gentleman!
Dan , damn I envy you and would love to have run into him back then . Please can't you go into more detail because some of us would love to hear absolutely every detail about running into him at the airport and in the bar lounge
My absolute favorite Rodney Dangerfield joke I can't find anywhere on RUclips. I heard it only once, on a TV special when I was a teenager and I've never forgotten it. I laughed so hard I missed the rest of his set. That was the power of his genius. The joke is: "I get no respect, you know what I mean? Last week I bought a used car. Found my wife's sweater in the back seat!"
There'll never be another laugh-master like Rodney Dangerfield. RIP, Rodney, and much respect. Thanks a million for all the side-busting laughs... There goes the neighborhood!
Rodney was a fine-tuned joke machine...everything from his looks, his movements, his jacket and tie, his expressions, his open eyes, his sweat and handkerchief...all perfected over the years.
I grew up in Australia watching and loving the humor of Red Skelton, Bob Hope, and Carol Burnett, but never heard of Rodney until I was in my 30s. Boy, am I glad I found him. Just brilliant!!! Thanks for this compilation and I’m still wiping away the tears of joy.
Man, Dangerfield was one of the best.. no question about it. His one liners were absolutely brilliant and hilarious. There’ll never be another as good as him. No way 😂😅
Try seeing him in the lobby of a UES skyscriper in his robe either walking to the NYHRC across the street, Catch A Rising Star (where Chris Rock even mentioned it), and with his tour bus.
Even today, after all these years, I still can't help but laugh. You just can't hold it back? Robin Williams was another one who was like a wound up coil. Once he was released, he'd just be non-stop! Loved them both...true entertainers.
Truly miss this man! Loved watching him and Carson . I still laugh just as hard as if it was the first time I ever heard these jokes! Timeless and priceless . RIP Rodney / Johnny . Two greats 👍🏻
Hey tim have you ever watched the documentary they made about Rodney?? It's a great documentary about him and there's a big story in there about him and Carson. Carson would not let him on the show for a really long time they had bad blood going there for awhile but he finally did. it's an interesting watch
After the joke about the flies pitching in to fix the screen door he had a follow up joke...."My wife's a horrible cook. Last week, the garbage disposal threw up." The Greatest.
No one, before or since, has even come close to this legends incredible sense of humor!! The ability to use simple and short bits of self depreciation in such an artful manner is still unprecedented!!! Myself and many others enjoyed the countless hours of joy and laughter you provided, and though film and social media, still provide for us!!!!
Rodney tried comedy when he was young...He quit performing for many years,but he kept writing jokes. He collected them and when he decided to get Back into show business ,years later,he had a foundation of material to build his Act on...He was the GREATEST!🙏❤👍
I was 7 the first time Dad let me stay up and Rodney on Carson..if he was on I was up til Rodney did his set and the couch. I didn't get most of the jokes but it was seeing my Dad laugh... happy Birthday Rodney, thank you Dad
I'm so glad I grew up listening to this man. They just don't make them like that anymore that's for sure😟 Rest in Peace Rodney...you were truly one of a kind♥️
Rodney was one of the all time greats and despite his bits about no respect he really had plenty of respect especially from those young comics whom he helped in getting started. He was also one of those who could think on their feet you just couldn't throw him off on stage he was quick with the comeback. One Rodney classic here "My old man he told me to you gotta start at the bottom. He was teaching me how to swim"
"The flies all pitched in to get the hole in the screen door fixed", only Rodney could come up with something like that, RIP RD, you were one of the best to ever do it.
I saw him at the Wisconsin State Fair in the early 60's - a side show, still selling his act. Love at first sight! When it was over I wondered if I'd ever see him again, best of the best!
one of my favorites: " When I was a kid I said to my father "Hey Pop, I'm going to the pond to ice skate". He said "Why don't you wait till it gets a little warmer"
cigarettes are so hard to quit, my wife and I agreed to only smoke after sex. I've had the same pack since 1973...My wife's up to three packs a day! The look on Carson's face was terrific.
The greatest thing about Rodney, is he was all comedy genius and didn’t depend on profanity shock factor; he knew the difference. He was the guy at the local bar in NY. Truly one of the greatest of all time.
When I was a kid (80’s baby) I only knew him as a the funny guy in movies. I couldn’t yet appreciate the comedic genius he was. One of the greatest ever for sure.
"Toast shouldn't have bones" and the one about how all the flies in the yard pitched in to fix the hole in the screen door. Just a few of my favorites.
Rodney your jokes are fantastic . If I have a rough day I put you on RUclips. You are so funny. Love you on Johnny Carson . Love how you crack up Johnny. RIP Rodney. You're the best.
It wasn't just the hilarious jokes, it was they way he delivered them, the man is a genius and artist, there's no one like him.
I saw him live once, I'm sure we all heard the same jokes before, but people were rolling in the aisles anyway. It was his delivery. Once he got the crowd laughing they couldn't stop.
AMEN
Rodney the best
You said that right !!
True he is unique and has a real genius at this style of humor & insights into human nature.
Rodney said he suffered from depression most of his life. He certainly knew how to make us forget our own sorrows. I hope he knew how much he delighted his audience, & how much we appreciated & valued the gift of laughter he gave us! RIP, Rodney.
Some of the funniest people are the most depressed. It's a coping mechanism of sorts. RIP Rodney, one of the greatest.
I saw a documentary about him. Wow, he had a rough childhood. He turned his sadness into laughs, but sometimes I hear a few of his jokes, I just feel sorry for him.
Yes
Absolutely. There are always kernels of truth in comedy. Comedy was therapeutic for him you can tell.

@@RobertGraziose Well, yeah. If he doesn't the wife will run off with it.
@@ToadstedCroaks I don't get it.

Carson had a lot of comedians on, but Rodney was his favorite. Just watch Johnny smile.
Greatest ever. And it's weird that so few people get that fact. He still doesn't get, yes, the respect he should get.
Totally agree 👍
Absolutely...he is hands down the G.O.A.T.

Born to late
Often imitated. , NEVER duplicated . What " stress" relievers . Always made your laugh after a shitty day . Laughter helps relieve many ailments
I did...I was SOOOO born in the right era. I enjoyed Johnny Carson on TV for 15 years before he retired. He was GOLDEN!

My absolute favorite Rodney Dangerfield joke I can't find anywhere on RUclips. I heard it only once, on a TV special when I was a teenager and I've never forgotten it. I laughed so hard I missed the rest of his set. That was the power of his genius. The joke is:
"I get no respect, you know what I mean? Last week I bought a used car. Found my wife's sweater in the back seat!"
He tells that one on u tube but instead of sweater he says her bra!
Ll
Yes I remember that joke and I am pretty certain I also saw it here on the tube in the past few years
I just heard it on his album "Rappin' Rodney" where he says a "dress" was in the backseat. It's @1:58 minutes.
My favorite is...my wife is so fridged, when she spreads her legs the furnace kicks in.
Happy Birthday, Rodney! 100 years ago today we were blessed
As long as there’s YT, Rodney lives on. Just watched this collection again (and again) LMAO.
Can't leave out, "I met the Surgeon General; he offered me a cigarette" in front of President Reagan. :)
😢😢😢
There'll never be another laugh-master like Rodney Dangerfield. RIP, Rodney, and much respect. Thanks a million for all the side-busting laughs... There goes the neighborhood!
Rodney was a fine-tuned joke machine...everything from his looks, his movements, his jacket and tie, his expressions, his open eyes, his sweat and handkerchief...all perfected over the years.
One of the greats of the greatest ever ☝️😆
You nailed it!
I grew up in Australia watching and loving the humor of Red Skelton, Bob Hope, and Carol Burnett, but never heard of Rodney until I was in my 30s. Boy, am I glad I found him. Just brilliant!!! Thanks for this compilation and I’m still wiping away the tears of joy.
Red Skeleton was a favorite.
I knew he wasn't a professional the knife had butter on it.
Joydrops!❤
Man, Dangerfield was one of the best.. no question about it. His one liners were absolutely brilliant and hilarious. There’ll never be another as good as him. No way
😂😅
i HOPE WE SEE ANOTHER IN OUR LIFETIME mITCH HEDBERG WAS A KILLWE
He was also king of the two-punchline joke. And the second was usually funnier than the first...
@@slamhound58 so true like a1-2 punch
very true.
Cool, you got to be very proud
"I told my wife I'm like wine, I get better with age....she locked me in the cellar!"
I have actual tears coming out of my eyes. The man was a true treasure.
So happy I was able to see him in Lake Tahoe.. seeing him in the casino floor in his bathrobe was classic..
Try seeing him in the lobby of a UES skyscriper in his robe either walking to the NYHRC across the street, Catch A Rising Star (where Chris Rock even mentioned it), and with his tour bus.
A time when comedians were actually funny and Rodney was right up there
Absolute genius!
What’s great about him is his jokes are still funny today! And of course the delivery is the best !
I met him at the bar at Dangerfields. Told him a joke or two. He used my jokes during his set and gave me credit. What a guy.
Why make up lies on the internet
@@GigaBoost "I tell you I'm fine now but last week I was in rough shape, I had to lie on the internet just to get likes"
@@GigaBoost LOL
You don't get no respect either.
liz conn - That was cheap!..
He was hilariously self deprecating.
God bless him. Pure Gold. I'm so glad we were able to preserve this real comedy. Thanks Rodney. 😀
Nobody did it like Rodney!! Hilarious! How can one mind create so many gems! Genius.
Even today, after all these years, I still can't help but laugh. You just can't hold it back? Robin Williams was another one who was like a wound up coil. Once he was released, he'd just be non-stop! Loved them both...true entertainers.
The Art of adult humor without vulgarity.
These are on TV. His Vegas show was a bit racier.
Or meaness . He lambasted yours truly!😛
And hilarious
Is very tough to accomplish
He was vulgar, just no coarse language
My favorite is, "You buy a hat like this, you get a free bowl of soup!" Line from Caddy Shack. "It looks good on you, though!" 😆
Mr.Rodney Dangerfield was one of the GREATEST COMICS EVER TO GRACE A STAGE OR PICKUP A MICROPHONE 🎤
Truly miss this man! Loved watching him and Carson . I still laugh just as hard as if it was the first time I ever heard these jokes! Timeless and priceless . RIP Rodney / Johnny . Two greats 👍🏻
Hey tim have you ever watched the documentary they made about Rodney?? It's a great documentary about him and there's a big story in there about him and Carson. Carson would not let him on the show for a really long time they had bad blood going there for awhile but he finally did. it's an interesting watch
One of the best. No foul language just pure comedy. Genius.
No late George Carlin for you. 😅
amen
After the joke about the flies pitching in to fix the screen door he had a follow up joke...."My wife's a horrible cook. Last week, the garbage disposal threw up." The Greatest.
No one, before or since, has even come close to this legends incredible sense of humor!! The ability to use simple and short bits of self depreciation in such an artful manner is still unprecedented!!! Myself and many others enjoyed the countless hours of joy and laughter you provided, and though film and social media, still provide for us!!!!
God made Rodney special so we could laugh at ourselves!
EVERY comedian ever is funnier than this guy.
@@bradsaelens692 and so are you
Rodney tried comedy when he was young...He quit performing for many years,but he kept writing jokes. He collected them and when he decided to get Back into show business ,years later,he had a foundation of material to build his Act on...He was the GREATEST!🙏❤👍
He even took a 12 year break. Then when he returned, he was more than ready!
Rodney, you are so missed! My father introduced me to your stuff when I was a teenager and I'm so glad he did. What a great memory.
That was 15 minutes of non-stop laughter for me!! Thank you for posting this - I can tell it was a labor of love.
Never a dull moment with Rodney.Perfect delivery every time .Love him.
The flies chipping in to fix the fly screen was pure gold... LOL
Happy 100th Birthday Rodney Dangerfield you were the best 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Dr. Hook yodel
The absolute KING of self deprecating humor.
Nothing but Respect for Mr. Dangerfield. Thanks for the laughs.
This was the era of comedy, wouldn’t miss Johnny most evenings.
Couldn’t wait to see the Johnny Carson show….stayed up just to see who would be on!
I was 7 the first time Dad let me stay up and Rodney on Carson..if he was on I was up til Rodney did his set and the couch. I didn't get most of the jokes but it was seeing my Dad laugh... happy Birthday Rodney, thank you Dad
Got to have a min or 2 on M's most tal team EVER who just swept by tarnished Domers after leading both games 2-0!!
Only Rodney can tell 100 jokes in less than 15 minutes! And all gems! ❤😂
Right. But still, he got no respect!
ONE OF THE ABSOLUTE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! 👍👍👍🤣😂😁🙂😃😜🤣😂😁
Nobody made Johnny laugh as hard as Rodney. R.I.P. to the legend.
I'm so glad I grew up listening to this man. They just don't make them like that anymore that's for sure😟 Rest in Peace Rodney...you were truly one of a kind♥️
"I tell ya Johnny blind dates aren't good either. Last week I went on a blind date and the girl showed up wearing pigtails, under her arms"
What a king. He and Mitch Hedberg are my favorite one liners ever. RIP to both.
Happy 100th Birthday to Rodney! Love and RESPECT for the greatest comedian of his era.
My wife told me to take out the garbage…I said “You cooked it, YOU take it out!”. RIP Rodney.
Absolute comic genius. One of the greatest of our time. There will NEVER be another beauty like RD.
The guy could just throw classics at you all night, rapid fire 🔥. There'll never be another.
Rodney was one of the all time greats and despite his bits about no respect he really had plenty of respect especially from those young comics whom he helped in getting started. He was also one of those who could think on their feet you just couldn't throw him off on stage he was quick with the comeback. One Rodney classic here "My old man he told me to you gotta start at the bottom. He was teaching me how to swim"
I love Rodney,and I love watching how much Carson loved Rodney. GOAT.
Johnny Carson has been critisized, but he really was so great - and to have him love Rodney is the greatest compliment.
Rodney and Don Rickles, legends that will never ever be duplicated. Comedy will never be the same.
Rickles was a bore. Rodney was sublime.
Amen
I liked Rickles too, he could cut with words with perfect precision.
ruclips.net/video/AsFMopEMW5s/видео.html&t
Amen to THAT😂🤣😂‼️. I totally agree!!
"The flies all pitched in to get the hole in the screen door fixed", only Rodney could come up with something like that, RIP RD, you were one of the best to ever do it.
I saw him at the Wisconsin State Fair in the early 60's - a side show, still selling his act. Love at first sight! When it was over I wondered if I'd ever see him again, best of the best!
There will never be anyone like him again,ever.
one of my favorites: " When I was a kid I said to my father "Hey Pop, I'm going to the pond to ice skate". He said "Why don't you wait till it gets a little warmer"
cigarettes are so hard to quit, my wife and I agreed to only smoke after sex. I've had the same pack since 1973...My wife's up to three packs a day!
The look on Carson's face was terrific.
The absolute king. I doubt we’ll ever see such a natural pro like Rodney.
The greatest thing about Rodney, is he was all comedy genius and didn’t depend on profanity shock factor; he knew the difference. He was the guy at the local bar in NY. Truly one of the greatest of all time.
I saw him live in the late 70's. He used plenty of profanity. Different than when on TV.
And yet people complain that we’re not allowed to be shocking anymore. You can’t please everyone.

@@jonp4846 Ya I know that Rodney and I love the ditty Rodney and the not so ditty mouth Rodney to the true KING AND G.O.A.T OF ONE LINERS!!!
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster You can be shocking without offending someone.
When I was a kid (80’s baby) I only knew him as a the funny guy in movies. I couldn’t yet appreciate the comedic genius he was. One of the greatest ever for sure.
And he was a very good actor too. I love Back to School. Great movie.
@@LVQ-so5th "Perhaps you can help straighten out my Longfellow."
Hands Down, One of The ORIGINAL KINGS OF COMEDY. # RIP Rodney.
"Whaddya mean, heaven's full?". 😅
My wife used to be afraid of the dark ... then she saw me naked, and now she's afraid of the light !!! My favourite from the genius Mr Dangerfield :)
lol 🤣🤣🤣
"Toast shouldn't have bones" and the one about how all the flies in the yard pitched in to fix the hole in the screen door. Just a few of my favorites.
I liked --Why She was more better known as a Two bagger,you put the bag over your head,in case the bag over hers breaks.
Rodney your jokes are fantastic . If I have a rough day I put you on RUclips. You are so funny. Love you on Johnny Carson . Love how you crack up Johnny. RIP Rodney. You're the best.
"I tell ya Johnny, it's tough trying to be funny when your coming down off of drugs ya know"
There will always be only 1 Rodney Dangerfield 😊❤👍👍
I love and miss Rodney. He was so good. Absolutely incredible genius.
Saw him live many years ago. Still remember some of his jokes. “I ran into the Surgeon General yesterday. Nice guy, he offered me a cigarette.”
The best ever. Will not be replaced.
Rodney is an absolute classic.
There will never be another one like him
Hello Sandra
How are you doing today?
Well. ..... besides Jimmy Stewart. Even if you didn't particularly liked him,you HAD to admire him.
As classic as it gets. I remember watching him on TV when it was real time. An absolutely amazing comedian. A style all his own.
Back in the day when comedy wasn't filthy. I miss those days. Rest in peace Mr. Dangerfield. You were so funny and everyone loved you.
Joke for joke, my pick for the funniest standup comic ever. And no, he doesn't get anything like the respect he deserves for it, either.
listen to Robert Schimmel also
