“No, you’re not getting old my FRiend, I remember them together too and they were every bit as entertaining (perhaps more so) than the more famed team of Carson and McMahon.
I remember when Arthur Treacher joined the celebrities of the day by lending his name to a fish and chips franchise (who could forget Arthur Treacher’s F&C?), and I remember him saying that he wouldn’t let them use his name on anything that he wasn’t willing to eat at his own table. A truly class act, just like Merv.”
I’m 53, and I watched Treacher and Griffin when I was a kid. My parents loved the show, too!
same here, I’m 50.
Rest in Peace Merv.
