4. I'd probably enjoy the Smothers Brothers more now |
|
...But back when I was a kid, Laugh-In was my favorite. The Smothers Brothers jokes went over my head all the time.

9. I was a bit too young myself... |
|
But seeing the Smo Bro's later in reruns, I recognized their "edge" and fully understood why they were too hot for 60's prime-time (and were subsequently canceled, ie. forced out of the bidniz for a spell).

10. Watching some of the Smothers Brothers episodes... |
|
those guys were WAAAAAAAY ahead of their time. So clever, so political. I wish they were back on TV now.

12. Laugh in had its good bits, for political humor, but that wasn't the |
|
focus.
Laugh in was today's Mad TV. Smothers Brothers was The Daily Show.

14. The Smothers Brothers - I'd love to see it in reruns now |
|
because of the political edge to the show that I didn't understand at the time, but when I see clips of it from retro shows, it blows my mind to hear what they were saying.
