How soon they forget....
"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"
The humor on that show is on live every morning on KABC AM radio 5-9 AM PST (streaming on internet too)-- Doug McIntyre (McIntyre in the Morning) who wrote for that show. He is able to get funny lines like that out in milliseconds. A very funny guy.
His show was so classy. I remember that our family would tune in every week and we'd all watch. It was just part of growing up in the 60's.
Perhaps I missed it, but I don't see J.J. of Good Times (his dad was fabulous as well), or Arnold Horshack (did see Vinny) of Kotter.
A little slow on the uptake. Sun's going down.
Horse pucky-those guys you never forget!
I would ad the men on the street on the old Steve Allen Show.
I would add them also.
WHERE IS ROB PETRIE?
What about 22. Richard Kimball ?
I think that's the character from the Farm Bureau anyway?
He and Laura made it as one entry.
78. Rob & Laura Petrie
Thanks for the tip-I will check it out!
Yea, he roamed thru the west.
Loved Rosemarie on that show.
Hank Kimball was the county agent on Green Acres.
I had to look it up too.
