Lately, I have been watching videos of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, I had forgotten how funny those roasts were, Don Rickles and the rest of the bunch from back then. I don’t think there is anything today that compares to the humor of that era. Foster Brooks was just great, as was Joey Bishop, even Peter Falk could bring a laugh.

I think Dean Martin was by far the most talented and likable of the bunch. Guy did everything really well. Obviously singing, comedy, westerns, Matt Helm, etc...

Loved Peter Falk in Colombo.

Check out this funny clip of him, in his usually bummy style and worn out trench coat entering a men’s homeless shelter to speak to a potential witness in a murder case.

I'd love to see the Dean Martin Roast of Sammy Davis Jr. as perfectly executed by the incomparable Don Rickles, played over and over again for today's democrat scum! Then, re-run the Wilt Chamberlain and Nipsey Russell (of Don Rickles) roasts! Everybody but everybody loved these shows especially the "victims"! I thank God I grew up when America was still America! (And they were smoking too!)
