Hey, I’d buy the premium Meryl!

With Meryl, you have to consider the hotness!!!! (I am just quoting Jon Stewart)

I’d like the Classic Comedy Collection with Jack Bennie, Flip Wilson, and Richard Nixon.

“Sock it to ME?”

When I saw Laugh-In as a kid, I always assumed that would make sense when I was older. It still doesn’t.

I’ve invented my own GPS system. Much more effective because you really don’t want to ignore it. “Hey! I told you to turn left back there. What part of ‘left’ did you not understand? Now you turn around right now and go back there! Don’t make me stop this car!”

I call it “The Nagivator.”

Anyone interested?

I think I married one of those!

@Doughfoot - but that would work even better if you used DeNiro’s voice.

watch any Gena Rowland film and tell me whether you still think Meryl is a good actress. She hired a PR firm straight out of Yale, and they branded her “the greatest actress of her generation.” and you believe it, right? Not.

I’d say prove this PR firm stuff, as long as I’m looking for proof. Some folks just can’t stand successful women!

I may be wrong but hasn’t this story thread already been done? Doesn’t the kid with eye-patch and stutter do all the recording? Did I miss something?

surf; Rich Little is still smarting from Johnny Carson literally curtailing his career for no apparent reason a few years ago by not inviting back on the Tonight Show.

prf: she could likely make up more than you could imagine if your post is any indication.

J2: the creators of Laugh-In long ago explained they made most of the stuff up to sound ” edgy” for the censored Sixites and had no idea what it meant themselves.

“You can bet yer sweet bippy.”

“What’s a bippy?”

@doughfoot, how exactly was the navigator going to stop the car? Activate a control that comes with the system? (Or, even better, blow it up with a grenade ditto?)
