I loved the old drunk act Foster Brooks did. PC people today would complain if he were still around.
Remember the FB bit as the drunk airline pilot in a bar with Deano? Classic!
Those guys were giants. Can you imagine trying to do one of those roasts today? First of all, the star quality would be entirely lacking. And second of all, the vulgarity would be appalling. To Dean, Frank, Reagan, Bob Hope, and the the whole bunch of them: Thank for the memories.
You should see Brooks roast Don Rickles. Hilarious.
