“Netflix Special” is like the one brand at a store that looks expensive and even has a funny name but is like literally the lowest quality thing you could ever buy. I dunno this made more sense in my head I probably sound goofy.
One of my early jobs i was a waiter... and Rodney came in with a few people. He was laughing really loud and cracking jokes at his table, almost just like the Caddy Shack scene. The owner didn't like it and told me to tell him to keep it down. I was very young and a fan of Rodney. So i told him, "Mr. Dangerfield, please understand that this isn't how i feel, but my boss is telling me to ask you to keep it down." He handed me a $100 bill and said "Thanks. You're a good kid. I respect you for doing your job. Now do ME a favor. Go tell your boss to grow a set of balls and come tell me himself." Then really loud he said towards the kitchen, "Are you KIDDIN me? I'll BUY this popcorn stand and BURN IT TO THE GROUND." Then went right back to telling jokes and laughing. He was so great and the life of the restaurant. He, also, gave me 100% tip on the bill. I tried to tell him he didn't have to do that and he said "What... Now YOU'RE gonna tell me what to do??" Then he laughed and put his arm around me. Telling me again that i was a good kid and to savor my youth (Which i totally understand, now, what he meant). Just wanted to share my memory of what a great night that was. Edit: Due to a comment made, i feel the need to add that Rodney was not a bother to anyone else in the restaurant. All the other people there, that night, were also laughing or blown away that it was Rodney. The owner just didn't like him at all. Like he was looking for a reason to have an issue with him. He was even more pissed that Rodney spoke up, back at him.
@Venger GREAT Rodney story. What I came to realize about Rodney is despite him being a comedy legend, he always stood up for the little guy (not literally little, but regular guys), and it appears he did just that by his response to you...AND he gave you a $100 tip!
@Corno di Bassetto, back in the day, girls wore dresses...... The bicycle was not so much a leisure activity, it was a means of transportation for kids and adults...
"I told the doctor, I think my wife has VD. He gave himself a shot of Penicillin" "My wife and I. We were happy for 20 years. Then we met". Classic. Rodney is a legend. RIP
I came home early from work one day and there was a guy jogging down the street naked. I asked him why are you jogging naked? He said because you came home early.
Ronald Reagan. The last great president until Trump came along. Everyone in between either were wimps or criminals like Clinton or dividers like Obama.
This guy is a rapid fire stand up comedian. He got great timing and quick mind, he slows down so that his audience could catch up. No one even comes close. He’s the best!
That's cuz the 1 world government antichrist system is in full control of the left. We're on full tilt end times. Don't ever expect it to go back. This world is not our home. Gets ur eyes on Jesus in these days
@@mrs.featherbottom5901 There is a surgeon's general warning on every box of cigarettes that warns of the risk of using cigarettes. By the Surgeon General offering Rodney a cigarette meant that he didn't care about Rodney's health. Basically just another joke about Rodney not getting any respect.
He just didn’t curse cuz the president was there it’s more formal and a big honor. He normally swears and says some decently vulgar stuff, still amazing as you said.
I saw him in person several times - and he cussed like a sailor. Funniest routines that I have ever seen - and full of curse words. You have no idea what you're talking about.
One thing I've always loved about Rodney is he can do his routine, make everyone laugh till there sides ache and not use one bit of profanity what so ever.
Ahh but you forget that if he tried this nowadays he'd be a racist for the Cuban jokes and a sexist for joking about his wife.. It's not comedy that's dead it's free speech.
You are literally witnessing someone who was born to do this. Classic humor that you will never find today. Did the whole skit without saying one foul word.

Plain and simple? Nothing simple about it. If you believe god is the only answer to our dilemma, then ask yourself this. What does he want us to do now? There are people all over the world who have not turned their back on god, struggling to help themselves and their families. They are running out of hope. Are you criticizing people for their despair. There are agnostics and atheists aplenty, calling out for help, for the first time. Plain?

My favorite Rodney joke - "When I was in high school, my acne was so bad that once I fell asleep in the library and when I woke up a blind man was reading my face."
@fred kramer yeah I heard about that, that it sent him into a life long bout of depression and he quickly gets depressed unless he's making people laugh. I noticed in some interviews if he wasn't telling a joke and the moment got serious for even a few seconds he would have that look like he was about to have a little Panic or something, he got very uneasy

Funny, funny guy. Loved everything he did.
Only one who missed the 1960s & early 1970s could think the 1980s were great. The music flat-out sucked in the 1980s, as did Big Hair & Spandex. Meanwhile, the 60s had MoTown and real Rock n' Roll that lasted until that GD Disco cancer showed up in the mid-70s.

No! The politicians today still do that. They battle all day, as you said, and then get together for drinks and tell jokes later. They all work for the same official league, as it were. They merely play on different teams. ;)
Amazing technical ability with his delivery. Always fast, always sharp, never stammered or tripped over his words. And genuinely funny material. One of the all time best.
The timing of the no respect line is flawless...He waits till they in the palm of his hand then drops his signature line. They eat it up. His execution and timing is perfect.
If you don't laugh at his jokes, you're dead. Greatest standup comic of all time. And no four letter words. Left us too soon. We all need laughter in our lives. Best medicine. God bless you Rodney.

Very cool never knew Rodney did any stand up for any presidents that's pretty cool 👍 It saddens me to see all these famous people in the audience most of them have passed away. Seeing this video brings back a lot of memories. I was growing up during that time and remember seeing these people on TV all the time, then life happens and people pass. Everyone gets older, our heros and ourselves. Many Thanks and appreciation to the family that puts up these Rodney Dangerfield videos. These are videos that we normally wouldn't get to see and it brings back a lot of memories of these very special people. This was an era in Comedy that I believe we will never see again. so God bless you Rodney and Ronald Reagan and many others that are in that audience that have passed away and God bless you all and Thank You for all these laughs that you still continue to give us 👍
Jeff Eppenger, you said that very well, I look back and say where did all the years go? Back then you could disagree with someone but people had more respect for each other than today. At 2 TIM 3:1-5 we see this attitude prevail today like never before. People have left God out of their lives and society has gone downhill ever since.
@@frankbiz I agree with you 100% people nowadays are way too sensitive. How we as a nation referring to the United States allowed ourselves to become such sensitive people where you can't even make a joke anymore without getting sued or losing your job it's very sad.
I cannot describe my feeling except for feeling like I woke up from a coma and returned to a simpler respectful time watching this clip. Dangerfield = Respect
When you see Dangerfield telling jokes that aren't malicious, Reagan and Tip laughing innocently, people being respectful of one another, you have to think--What happened to us?
What’s even crazier is that tip O’Neal was pretty left wing and Reagan was pretty right wing. They were very different ideologically and somehow we made it work up until recently.

Yes there was a time when a few great comedians like Rodney didn't have to use profanity and tell nasty jokes and yet still made you laugh really hard. They had great talent .Those days are long gone.
Yep, every time a comic does a clean set, there is always someone who bemoans how nobody works clean in more and how much better things used to be and how awesome the blah blah blah blah. Comedy is either funny or it's not. If someone's not your style, change the channel. There's something for everyone.
Really Miss Him and my Dad used to let me stay up to watch Carson to hear me laugh harder then he was...Nobody in Rodneys League nobody before during or since...Now look at America... The jokes on us..
The reaction Rodney gets at 3:12 had to be a great feeling for him. To have such a 'high society' crowd, including the President, give a massive ovation to Rodney's chief line must've validated that his act was universally enjoyed. Arguably the greatest act of all time!
Much like everything in the past, makes you realize the unfortunate crap we are subjected to, it’s disappointing. RIP to the legend, full of class and genuinely an entertainer.
Politicians today are such partisan hacks. Republicans too, but Democrats especially. It’s all about ideology first, to hell with morals or governance.
Saw Rodney at the Arizona State Fair in the early 80's, and remember this joke. "The wife greets me at the door, she was wearing lingerie. She was coming HOME!"
@@ryanbahnsen6429 I was more of a Letterman person (starting from the summer of 1979 when he guest-hosted for Johnny a few times), but I think I lifted more jokes from Leno. Conan's the best of what's left, and Kimmel is kinda OK. The rest are all mostly very meh, though Neil Young played with Fallon so he isn't the absolute worst.
Back in the late 80s, I was on a move job from Boston to NYC. I was in the truck with two buddies and during the ride down, I cracked lots of Rodney jokes. Once we get into Manhattan, we're looking at the map trying to figure out where to go. I see a guy on the corner in shorts, loafers, no socks, and a Hawaiian shirt. We have the truck windows down because it's summer, and I yell, "Hey look! It's Rodney!" just kidding around. The guy hears me, turns, and waves and it's HIM!! The guy driving the truck almost crashed. We should have stopped right THERE, but like a bunch of dummies, we didn't. Talked about it all the way back to MA. Great memory!

I was 16 in 81 and the 80s where absolutely amazing. The best time of my life.
I agree
Only one who missed the 1960s & early 1970s could think the 1980s were great. The music flat-out sucked in the 1980s, as did Big Hair & Spandex. Meanwhile, the 60s had MoTown and real Rock n' Roll that lasted until that GD Disco cancer showed up in the mid-70s.
@@acousticshadow4032 Another person who doesn't feel anyone has an opinion. Considering my first album's where deep purple, Aerosmith, zeppelin, grand funk railroad, Bowie I enjoyed the energy of the 80s metal bands, the energy of that decade was amazing to me.

It has always been known as an Irish trait, self- deprecating humor. Can you imagine an Irish Rodney D.? His name was Hal Roach. Hysterical!!!
It's called deep seeded pain. He used it to his advantage. But they are the best

Rodney is pure genius. I met him once in Beverly Hills and he was such a sweet guy. I really miss him, thank God we have clips of him.
The pace in this bit is insane. Respect Rodney. One of the best to ever do it.

I saw Rodney Dangerfield in Fla. He came back 3 times at the end of his performance. People loved his act so much..
Classic Rodney. His one liners were so fast, people had to think about it. So funny. They are great !!
Everything Star Wars
definitely quick on the draw.
You should listen to Henny Youngman
He is a Joke Machine
I hear you totally.
I thought he was speaking TOO fast in this clip, he was probably nervous, didn't leave enough time for the old folks to get the jokes
"A guy made a pass at my wife. I said 'Hey, buddy. Who told you you could fool around with my Wife? He said, everybody'".
Those were the good old days. Anybody else miss those days?
Yes. The 80's was an awesome time. Completely opposite vibe today.
Oh yeah those were the days. Comedians made us laugh, journalists actually reported, and politicians were not vitriolic demagogs.
@@Bye-kd8xo same today as was yesterday. Only differences are the suits and the haircuts

I could listen to same old clips of Rodney a hundred times and still crack up each time! Rodney was a classic comical genius!
He could fire off the one liners like no one ever could. And never stumbled once. This man was amazing!
"I went up to a bartender and told him 'surprise me'. He showed me a naked picture of my Wife".
Told the bartender to surprise me..he gave me a glass of water!! Damn near killed me!!!
I went up to a bartender and asked for a double, he brought out a guy who looked like me
"I live in a rough neighborhood. I asked the cop how long it takes to get to the bus. He said I don't know so far no one's made it."
Amazing technical ability with his delivery. Always fast, always sharp, never stammered or tripped over his words. And genuinely funny material. One of the all time best.
Absolutely the most legendary set of all time. IMHO. Rapid 🔥 Rodney
The timing of the no respect line is flawless...He waits till they in the palm of his hand then drops his signature line. They eat it up. His execution and timing is perfect.
Met Rodney at BWI when I worked at the airport in 1974.
Stopped and spent time with us. Total gentleman.
"I got in a cab one night and told the driver to take me somewhere I could get some action. He took me to my house".
Rodney's comedy was unlike any other. You actually bursted out laughing once every 30 seconds. You didn't have to wait forever for a punchline
Comedy without vulgarity and it's great.
Randy Lyons he was dirty as hell in his act just not on tv
Gee wiz Wally, does that make it better?
He ended on a high note that night. It takes a lot to get Nancy to laugh that hard.
Rodney always knows his audience. Greatest TV comedian.
Exactly!
This material is timeless. People still laugh just as hard as they did back then. We miss you Rodney

From Australia. One of my favourite actors. Caddyshack and back to school. His talent should be been recognized long before
thank you for Tina Arena,,,,im in love with her
If you don't laugh at his jokes, you're dead. Greatest standup comic of all time. And no four letter words. Left us too soon. We all need laughter in our lives. Best medicine. God bless you Rodney.
You never saw him in Las Vegas. Plenty of foul tasteful jokes.
Rodney is great! RIP
Thanks for upload.

Very cool never knew Rodney did any stand up for any presidents that's pretty cool 👍
It saddens me to see all these famous people in the audience most of them have passed away. Seeing this video brings back a lot of memories. I was growing up during that time and remember seeing these people on TV all the time, then life happens and people pass. Everyone gets older, our heros and ourselves. Many Thanks and appreciation to the family that puts up these Rodney Dangerfield videos. These are videos that we normally wouldn't get to see and it brings back a lot of memories of these very special people. This was an era in Comedy that I believe we will never see again. so God bless you Rodney and Ronald Reagan and many others that are in that audience that have passed away and God bless you all and Thank You for all these laughs that you still continue to give us 👍
Well stated! 👌👍😊

Jeff Eppenger, you said that very well, I look back and say where did all the years go? Back then you could disagree with someone but people had more respect for each other than today. At 2 TIM 3:1-5 we see this attitude prevail today like never before. People have left God out of their lives and society has gone downhill ever since.
@@frankbiz I agree with you 100% people nowadays are way too sensitive. How we as a nation referring to the United States allowed ourselves to become such sensitive people where you can't even make a joke anymore without getting sued or losing your job it's very sad.
Really love this guy! One of the most genuinely funny comedians to ever live!
64 years old and I still miss this guy! Wish you were still with us Rodney 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
“The other night my wife met me at the door in a negligé. She was coming home”

This might be his best set. He really brought it and the crowd appreciated it
I cannot describe my feeling except for feeling like I woke up from a coma and returned to a simpler respectful time watching this clip. Dangerfield = Respect
Simpler respectful time? Have you even seen the 20th century?
I would do anything to go back in time and see Rodney Dangerfield live
I saw him!
Nice! @@rick3301958
When you see Dangerfield telling jokes that aren't malicious, Reagan and Tip laughing innocently, people being respectful of one another, you have to think--What happened to us?
Wow, you just said a WHOLE lot!!!!
Right. Today's politicians have no respect no respect at all.
What’s even crazier is that tip O’Neal was pretty left wing and Reagan was pretty right wing. They were very different ideologically and somehow we made it work up until recently.
What happened ?

This guy was such a legend there are kids out there quoting his jokes without even knowing who Rodney Dangerfield was.
Yes there was a time when a few great comedians like Rodney didn't have to use profanity and tell nasty jokes and yet still made you laugh really hard. They had great talent .Those days are long gone.
Generic comment. There are plenty of comics that are not nasty and do not curse.
I wouldnt say those days are long gone but I would definitely say few and far between.
Yep, every time a comic does a clean set, there is always someone who bemoans how nobody works clean in more and how much better things used to be and how awesome the blah blah blah blah. Comedy is either funny or it's not. If someone's not your style, change the channel. There's something for everyone.
These jokes were weak tho
That is soooooo true, kids today done understand stand humor, or to have a job. Hell yeah

Rickles , Rodney and Jonathan Winters. We will never see anyone even come close to the caliber of them in our lifetime again , comedic geniuses !!!
The reaction Rodney gets at 3:12 had to be a great feeling for him. To have such a 'high society' crowd, including the President, give a massive ovation to Rodney's chief line must've validated that his act was universally enjoyed. Arguably the greatest act of all time!
Rodney, you were the King of the "One Liners"! Thank you for so many laughs, you are greatly missed, and may your soul rest in eternal peace.

Back in the late 80s, I was on a move job from Boston to NYC. I was in the truck with two buddies and during the ride down, I cracked lots of Rodney jokes. Once we get into Manhattan, we're looking at the map trying to figure out where to go. I see a guy on the corner in shorts, loafers, no socks, and a Hawaiian shirt. We have the truck windows down because it's summer, and I yell, "Hey look! It's Rodney!" just kidding around. The guy hears me, turns, and waves and it's HIM!! The guy driving the truck almost crashed. We should have stopped right THERE, but like a bunch of dummies, we didn't. Talked about it all the way back to MA. Great memory!
Amazing! Cheers from London, England.
