I'm seventy-one and grew up laughing at the two seagulls and Red's delightful innocent humour . I still laugh at The Three Stooges and the Warner Brothers cartoons.
@@rogeredwarrddeshon5000Nothing wrong with that. Especially gotta love the Stoogies. My parents watched them fresh in the movie houses. Then the war came around.. Can't beat classic Warner Brother's either.
John Wayne and Red Skelton. 2 of the greatest guys that ever lived. Too bad I never really got much of a chance to grow up with any of their shows. But thanks to the power of dvd and blue ray, I've got some great shows and clips to remember them by. May they both rest in peace.
I grew up watching John Wayne and Red Skelton on black and white TV. They are the memories of my growing years. I deeply appreciate thier talent and creativity. No one does this anymore.
Such special talent and great memories back then , the whole family could and would sit together and laugh watching shows like these together, its sad how family values have changed as well as social media has..wish i could go back to those days..
@@1cdmap, from Wikipedia: America's entry into World War II resulted in a deluge of support for the war effort from all sectors of society, and Hollywood was no exception. Wayne was exempted from service due to his age (34 at the time of Pearl Harbor) and family status (classified as 3-A - family deferment). Wayne repeatedly wrote to John Ford saying he wanted to enlist, on one occasion inquiring whether he could get into Ford's military unit.[38] Wayne did not attempt to prevent his reclassification as 1-A (draft eligible), but Republic Studios was emphatically resistant to losing him since he was their only A-list actor under contract.

William J. Donovan, OSS Commander, wrote Wayne a letter informing him of his acceptance into the Field Photographic Unit, but the letter went to his estranged wife Josephine's home.

Heavens audience must have standing room only for these two! Red Skelton could make you laugh or cry at will and John Wayne was everybodies cowboy that could take any role in any movie and improve on it by starring in it.God bless them both!
Great comedians back then, didn't feel the need to cuss to be funny. Johnathan Winters, Abbott & Costello, Rich Little, Rodney Dangerfield, Rowan & Martin, the Smothers Brothers and so many more.
@@maxmegsnoopy Funniest joke I ever heard was from Rich Little in Las Vegas. Not a dirty word or reference in his whole act. These were true comediennes. Now every other word is a cuss word and ever story is dirty. It just shows they aren't really funny.
I live in Australia and back in the 60's when I was a little bloke i.e 10-12 my Dad and I watched the Red Skelton Show on B/W tele together... Laugh, I nearly split my sides... Great memories of the American comedy skit shows back then...
Agree! I loved Junior "the mean little kid". Hope you all are o.k. safe and well. May God deliver us all from the Evil running rampant in the world. ❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 and Peace to all God bless you
Wayne had a lot of nerve doing a comedy sketch with one of the greatest ad-libbers on TV. Skelton paid little attention to the scripts because he didn't like other people writing for him, and it took a pro to stay in with him. Two of the best. All time.
I love how Red gave John all the funniest lines in this skit. He was generous like that. That spoon joke is what I remembered all these years later and made me look for this. I'm delighted to find it! I was a little girl when I saw this with my parents, and it might have been the first funny joke I got on my own without needing it to be explained to me. I think I was about 5 yo. I am still careful to remove the spoon from my teacup. 😉
what should have been a happier day on Sept. 17, 1997 began with tears for a successful star and entertainer of our time Red Skelton who had passed away at 80 years of age. I haven't cried in 1997 on the day he died because he went without me hearing and not knowing he was ill. It is 19 years and to the day later that I learned he passed away while I watch Ed a prerecorded show on "RUclips's The Dini Petty Show" where she interviewed the late Great Red Skelton. Truly, a Great, Great comedian and Great Humanitarian. God Bless You Red for the many Sundays filling our home with laughter. Richard Bernard "Red" Skelton. 15656 Leechburg, PA
I, too, grew up watching Red Skelton and he was a comic genius. Many equalled his talents but no-one I know of exceeded them. He was also a very talented painter.

I have my mother to thank for my love of John Wayne and Red Skelton. They were her favorite actors and comedians. Thanks Mama, you knew what real acting was!!
The duke the best damn actor that ever live and old red is one of the funniest comedians ive ever had th pleasure to watch.

I feel the best film was ever in was Stagecoach from 1939. Very deep film loaded with stars from the past. And Hollywoods best year. If you don't know it.
I'm with you. They were two of the greatest! TV nowadays is not worth a whole lot. And the cinema. Many movies are nothing but special effects. In Skelton's / Wayne's heyday the acting, the comedy, and the writing were top notch. Now they've been replaced by special effects and CGI. And when actors stand around and yell at each other, they call that great acting. Damn.... maybe I'll become an actor.... LOL!
The woke anti laughter idiots would say it's too violent, just as they did with the Road Runner cartoons. Why can't we just round them up and dump all the miseries on a large desert island?
I remember when I first move out west in 1954. I drove down Wilshire Blvd in west L.A., and Red Skelton came out of the fancy Hotel in his red Cadillac convertible, waving to everyone and no one in particular. That was the kind of guy he was. He was a happy trooper, and I'll never forget his waving, just enjoying life!
I could write the scripts for John Wayne movies I see him over and over and over again up until today all western’s favorites and reds garden was hilarious I remember my mother watching him every week those were the days
Right there my friends is two men that made America great and made us laugh and think about the country that we live in and the people around us sure miss these guys they were definitely 8 blessing to our society
Used to watch Red Skelton every Sunday doing all his impressions and comical skits..sure miss his good, clean, fall off the couch kind of laughter..😅😅❤❤ R.I.P. Red..😢
Two of the greatest that loved on the screen. Never a dirty joke from Reds mouth as kod i looked forward to watch his show. As i looked forward to see Waunes movies RIP both of ypu. You would not loke hoe America is today glad you didn't live to see it Cbp. cpmbatmedic namvet
Happy 100-year birthday for John Wayne and Red Skelton God bless you too I used to watch the Red Skelton Show when I was a kid and I still watch it even though I'm 53 so I just got to say it was one good show and I really liked it a lot and I'm glad to say I'm going to have to go so off we go to the show sincerely TCB Elvis Presley
I remember when we only got two channels on our blk & wht T.V.. In the evening after all the chores were done and dinner had been eaten our family of five sat around and watched QUALITY T.V. Shows included The Ed Sullivan Show, The Jack Benny Show, Raw Hide, The Honeymooners, I've Got A Secret, The Grocho Marx Show, Lawrence Welk Walt Disney The Red Skelton Show and several other quality shows. There was no swearing, no nudity, no taking drugs on screen and nothing vulgar at all. Life was so quality back then. Everybody worked unless they had a handycap and were unable to. Children had chores and were taught to show respect.Red Skelton was everyone's favorite, He was funny.
I've read that Red Skelton was especially interested in the quality of his show's content and insisted on no profanity in the show. If this is true , then I respect him much more !!
@@phildees9539 He also stood up to the high-ups when they tried to make him quit saying "God bless" at the end of each show. He told them either he kept saying it, or he quit doing the show. The high-ups backed down. Red Skelton was a real quality man!
Marion Morrison was a draft-dodging chickenhawk and an abusive alcoholic. Soldiers booed his ass away at PFO shows till he fucked off for good. You're thinking of a completely fictional character.
Endoptic Not a draft dodger! John Wayne, born 1907, WWI 1914-1918 (Wayne age:7-11). WWII 1941-1945 (Wayne age 34-38). Korea 1950-1953 (Wayne age 43-46). His age made it so he didn't have to be drafted.
Marion Morrison was classified as 3-A for deferred for family dependency in '42. He was reclassified 1-A in '44 but wriggled out via his studio's clout. He stayed in Hollywood becoming a star instead of doing his hitch. This was known by enough soldiers to piss 'em off when he tried to play tough guy patriot right in their faces. Some even got a few hits in when he strutted about, obviously without uniform or excuse. ;D
Often very under rated as an actor. Westerns were his speciality but the skill was making everthing seem so natural. In the Searchers Wayne gave the best performance of his life, but his dominance on screen was apparent in all of his movies. God bless and thanks for the memories.
Yes, great in many, brilliant in The Searchers. He was haunting, bitter, hateful, sarcastic, and ending with forgiveness and acceptance. A great performance every young boy and girl should watch. How easy to hate, but so difficult to accept and forgive.
Please explain to me why the networks are cramming boring reality TV shows down our throats?I grew up watching Red Skelton and all of the great TV legends.The networks and cable should throw the reality TV shows off the air and bring shows like Skelton's Gleason,Carol Burnett and more back on the air.
Such great TV back with REAL men and REAL women, and no political correctness BULLSHIT! Great comedy, instead of the reality crap we are seeing now. Sad how far we have fallen since then.
This all has to do with who is promoted nowadays. In the past there were entertainers.. people with real talent. But now because of the rise of reality show, the ones who are promoted the most are those who are the most extravagant, bizarre, hated, disgusting and extraordinary. Instead of the audience being entertained by skill, the modern audience is entertained by a spectacle likened to a circus sideshow.
I think Red Skelton was one of the funniest comedians on TV and never said or needed a four letter word to get a laugh, Red's saying not mine in his last day of his last series of shows on TV. I liked Benny Hill too. I do not think Red Skelton or Benny Hill has ever been replaced with anyone as funny, just as no actor has ever filled John Wayne's acting shoes. No matter what John Wayne's roll, from cowboy, to detective, to a sea captain, he was always entertaining.
Don Hulbert Yeah, originally John Wayne was to play the Waco Kid and Richard Pryor was to be Black Bart. Wayne said no and Pryor couldn't get cleared for insurance because of his cocaine addiction.
John Wayne is my hero if he was alive now he’d be furious to see what’s happened with the government it was a down to earth person and I was really sad when he passed away but even as a kid I looked up to him I’m 63 now and I still look up to him. And he was funny kind of a dry humor he is quite a man
Lol I Love these fellers🏇 I esp miss John Wayne! My father looked just like him, he wore cowboy boots, Hat & was Good with guns (he was Sheriff@ a gun club😁) he intimidated All my friends w/o speaking, & men were always wanting to fight him, w/o provocation! My father was also a story-teller, a jokster, a loving man, So let's just say, my Mother had to beat allot of women off the porch;. but he was a devoted husband, & Never lost a fight! Ahhh.. "Those were the days!" And I'd rather watch these shows, than watch CGI, Any day! "Remember The Magnificent Seven" Heehee
Both Red and John were a bit before my time. But there's no doubt that I grew up watching their movies and skits. Both were great in their own right. Shame that such movies and comedy are barely remembered anymore.
I used to watch Red every week. I would laugh so hard that l would early pee my pants! Iloved Clem Cladiddlehopper! The horror master Vincent Price was one of his favorite guest.
Red Skelton never used any profanity and closed every show with "Good Night and God Bless". The era of wholesome entertainment died the same day he did.
Two of the GREATEST. Skelton always said at the end of his show "God bless" and that always stuck with me, I' almost 70 now and still remember.
I'm seventy-one and grew up laughing at the two seagulls and Red's delightful innocent humour . I still laugh at The Three Stooges and the Warner Brothers cartoons.
@@rogeredwarrddeshon5000Nothing wrong with that. Especially gotta love the Stoogies. My parents watched them fresh in the movie houses. Then the war came around.. Can't beat classic Warner Brother's either.

Always good clean comedy!

John Wayne and Red Skelton make a wonderful team. These tv show back then was fun to watch, clean, classy, and no filthiest.
There was blue humor, but it was very subtle.
This was so great...no bashing, cussing, just great comedy. Sure can't turn on a TV and see this now days.
Two of my favorites! I grew up watching Red Skelton and still enjoy John Wayne's films. ❤❤
I used to watch Red Skelton on TV every week, when I was a kid. I loved his various skits. 🙂
My grandfather went through boot camp with Red Skelton.
He said that he was the nicest person he ever met.
... and genuine
Know who never went to boot camp?
Marrion was to chicken shit to go fight in the war.

Both were truly great men! Even their families cared about them!

What a master Red Skelton was ‼️

LAURA: Okay, but John Wayne disliked Marlon Brando....
Too many people today have no idea what real (and clean) comedy was.
And Red Skelton was its ambassador.
If a joke has to be explained to be understood how funny can it be?
There was a lot of clean funny shows back then. One of my favourites was the Dick Van Dyke show.
I heard his audience warm ups were a bit risque.
😂😂😂😂 priceless..2 of the best.....gone but never forgotten
Two great actors. I love watching both. Henri is right, real men...real women...real entertainment
How on earth can anyone give these 2 legends a tbumbs down you must not know what comedy is
Red and John are legends greatly missed. Love them both❤❤

THANKS FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO. I WAS RAISED ON BOTH ENTERTAINERS, AND JOHN WAYNE WAS THE BEST AT WHAT HE DID.
Red Skeleton was in a class by himself. John Wayne wasnt only a good actor he had a wicked sense of humor too.
When I was growing up Red Skeleton was my favorite show
Please explain to me why the networks are cramming boring reality TV shows down our throats?I grew up watching Red Skelton and all of the great TV legends.The networks and cable should throw the reality TV shows off the air and bring shows like Skelton's Gleason,Carol Burnett and more back on the air.
I agree, good clean jokes.
Isotec1 Amen
Donny Brook I agree with you 100%
Isotec1 i'll drink to that
Donny Brook Very well said.
Most wonderful comedy I've ever heard. I use to watch the TV shows. Yes I am old enough to remember the show.
Such great TV back with REAL men and REAL women, and no political correctness BULLSHIT! Great comedy, instead of the reality crap we are seeing now. Sad how far we have fallen since then.
You mean you don't respect the fact that we live in a nation where the Kardashian's are Gods????
This all has to do with who is promoted nowadays. In the past there were entertainers.. people with real talent. But now because of the rise of reality show, the ones who are promoted the most are those who are the most extravagant, bizarre, hated, disgusting and extraordinary. Instead of the audience being entertained by skill, the modern audience is entertained by a spectacle likened to a circus sideshow.

Father Time is that what you call them?
Who would've known that "The Duke" had such great comedic timing
wonderful , many thanks for putting this on , just a joy to watch , never seen it before but very funny
I remember seeing this . Always remember the part about the spoon .
I just love this skit!
Red was the best, know one was ever as good as this fellow.
One brilliantly written and presented properly funny skit.. Good telly right there.
Red and John are so legendary.
John Wayne was the best actor and cowboy that ever lived.REdSleton was a great commidean and a most love able man.God BLess them both.
Hello Madonna, How are you doing?
Red Skelton was one of the funniest men who ever lived!
I think Red Skelton was one of the funniest comedians on TV and never said or needed a four letter word to get a laugh, Red's saying not mine in his last day of his last series of shows on TV. I liked Benny Hill too. I do not think Red Skelton or Benny Hill has ever been replaced with anyone as funny, just as no actor has ever filled John Wayne's acting shoes. No matter what John Wayne's roll, from cowboy, to detective, to a sea captain, he was always entertaining.
I remember well, watching this episode on TV wayyy back when. Red Skelton was a staple entertainment show at our house.
I grew up seeing him on 📺 lets bring them back they were great.
loved them both.
Hello Stephanie, How are you doing?
It don't get better than John Wayne & Red Skelton!
They were hysterical together. John Wayne had quite a touch for deadpan comedy.
+Don Hulbert Mel Brooks wanted Wayne to star in Blazing Saddles but he turned him down. Such a pity.
Didn't know that! You're right, it's a shame.
Don Hulbert Yeah, originally John Wayne was to play the Waco Kid and Richard Pryor was to be Black Bart. Wayne said no and Pryor couldn't get cleared for insurance because of his cocaine addiction.
+John Smith As Mel tells it, Wayne told him, "Aw, no, I--I couldn't be in a movie like that, but...I'll be first in line to see it!"
Richard was one of the writers for the movie though.
John Wayne is my hero if he was alive now he’d be furious to see what’s happened with the government it was a down to earth person and I was really sad when he passed away but even as a kid I looked up to him I’m 63 now and I still look up to him. And he was funny kind of a dry humor he is quite a man
👍👍👍yep he was a good man he loved this country
Makes me laugh out loud. I miss both Red and John.Truely love both of them .😊
Lol I Love these fellers🏇 I esp miss John Wayne! My father looked just like him, he wore cowboy boots, Hat & was Good with guns (he was Sheriff@ a gun club😁) he intimidated All my friends w/o speaking, & men were always wanting to fight him, w/o provocation! My father was also a story-teller, a jokster, a loving man, So let's just say, my Mother had to beat allot of women off the porch;. but he was a devoted husband, & Never lost a fight! Ahhh.. "Those were the days!" And I'd rather watch these shows, than watch CGI, Any day! "Remember The Magnificent Seven" Heehee
Good stuff. John Wayne didn't even snicker. A true pro!
Both Red and John were a bit before my time.
But there's no doubt that I grew up watching their movies and skits.
Both were great in their own right.
Shame that such movies and comedy are barely remembered anymore.
Red Skelton was very funny ... and never dirty or rude. Much better than today's so called comics.
"Life is hard, but harder if you're stupid"
John Wayne
This could be referring to the garbage on tv today.shows on tv is stupid.
Should be Framed and hung up in School Rooms
every one is stupid at something
John Wayne on Liberals.... ruclips.net/video/tbSJQz4fdns/видео.html
@@onlythewise1 not me. Lol my son tells me I'm that way all the time but you love me. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
John Wayne was actually really funny.
I used to watch Red every week. I would laugh so hard that l would early pee my pants! Iloved Clem Cladiddlehopper! The horror master Vincent Price was one of his favorite guest.
Notice no profanity, just good old fashioned funny.
They font make them like that anymore
Red Skeleton was one of my Dad's favorite comedians. Kind speaking man. We both liked "The Duke". ♡♡
Refreshing, huh?
Red Skelton never used any profanity and closed every show with "Good Night and God Bless".
The era of wholesome entertainment died the same day he did.
@@azerdraco3146 Watch him do the Pledge of Allegiance. It's on the Tube.
I miss these old, fun, and innocent variety shows.
Two of the best men this country had ever seen
My Father would sit watching Skelton, not issue a sound but was glowing red in the face with laughter.
I often thought he was going to explode.
Two of my favorites! Thanks for posting!
