But I'd go early 60's and before to get an approximation. ;) I will say that there is a level of class and style going on here that you'd be hard pressed to find these days.

Phishean: So true! I lived in Sacramento when Reagan was Governor the first time, back when we were proud of California, which was once the 2nd richest State in the Union, the best in so many ways -- no more, now it's 10th or lower, their Governor, Jerry Brown, has ruined that Golden State, and so many of us who were native Californians have long ago moved away. Brown has and continues to queer any chances of that State being great again. The only wealth is in Hollywood and Silicon Valley, and the heads of those companies live in Seattle or Utah or Idaho -- NOT California, and many can work from home with all the latest advanced technology; you don't have to be "at the office" -- since your office is at home. Anyway, movies in the theater will be a thing of the past in a few years, since most people will have theaters in their homes, IF they are interested in movies. They'll probably have 3-D, smell-vision, special effects you can see, hear, and feel all around you, that will probably take the place of movies and television as we know it today. Even agricultural companies are giving up and some are moving to the fertile valleys of South Africa to raise their crops! Guess they'll take a chance on the hippos eating their crops and the elephants trampling them, rather than having them dry up and blow away! No, California is no longer the Golden State. Even smart Hollywood citizens (at least the older, smarter ones) are moving and making their primary home away from California and only come to CA if their movie is being made there.

Now this is just the funniest thing I have seen in years. When stars were real stars, politicians were not offended by any little thing. could never imagine Trump doing something like this. He will cry and walk off. Reagan just laughed all the way and to see Dean Martin in tears is awesome. Reagan gave as good as he got. Plus he also can take the piss out of himself and other politicians. God bless Reagan as he was a real man and great American. As to Dean Martin he was a true star, TV, singer, actor, movies, stage he was a grue great. This is when America was great and looking at these guys you can see why they made America great. Thanks for uploading this a real treat.

Yep, Reagan raised me I turned 12 years old when Reagan was elected in 1980 turned 21 when he left the White House 1988. Greatest President the GOAT. The psychos calling Trump the Greatest are idiots.

Oh to once again be able to enjoy the simpler times, when every other word coming out of a celebrities mouth wasn't the F word, when people actually had a sense of humor and could laugh at themselves no matter who was making fun of them. I remember watching this on a black and white tv, my parents weren't rich and we couldn't afford to buy a color tv, it wasn't until 1977 or 78 before my parents bought our first color tv, which was a year or so before I graduated high school. I can still appreciate and enjoy watching these older tv shows and yearn for yesteryear, thanks for the memories. It was early into my Naval career when President Reagan gave all of us submarine sailors a 35% raise in our submarine pay, I was proud to serve my country then and 14 years after I retired from the Navy I'm still proud that I was able to serve my country, like my father before me. He served during WWII and I served during and after the Cold War and the war on terrorism, which will probably never end, because, today's world lacks the intestinal fortitude to fight this war the way it needs to be fought, in order to end the threat of terrorism once and for all.

For the benefit of younger viewers who are enjoying this but don't know who all of these folks were, here are the names (stage + original), years of birth and death (with approx times each part begins): (0:07) Dean Martin (born Dino Crocetti), 1917-1995; (2:04) Jackie Vernon (born Ralph Verrone), 1924-1987; (3:20) Phyllis Diller (nee Driver), 1917-2012; (4:53) Dom DeLuise (doing a parody of Marlon Brando from The Godfather), 1933-2009; (5:58) Pat Henry (Scarnato), 1924-1982; (7:58) Mark Spitz, b.1950 (now age 69); (9:26) Jack Benny (born Benjamin Kubelsky), 1894-1974; (12:30) Jonathan Winters (playing fictitious schoolteacher), 1925-2013; (15:46) (Julius) "Nipsey" Russell (playing fictitious twin), 1918-2005; (16:49) Nancy Reagan (born Anne Frances Robbins, married Ronald 1952), 1921-2016; (18:22) Don Rickles, 1926-2017; (23:30) Gov. Ronald Reagan, 1911-2004. Thanks, NTA for posting this and giving us so many laughs and memories. Great comments by so many viewers.

That was DAMN AWESOME!!!!! LOVED IT!!! And feel extremely thankful to actually seen this now in 2019! Because I'm 45yrs old the only recollection of Ronald Reagan I have was from the age of about 5 or 6 watching him run for President with my beloved Grandfather. He was a strong supporter of Regan. My Grandfather died a year or 2 after that so I don't believe he was alive for Regan's entire Presidency, but I was. Today, unfortunately Politics has become increasingly nasty which is very unfortunate & sad. Especially comparing this roast to that of Sarah Sanders which was ugly & just mean. Yet Sarah Sanders endured it like a lady. Whether you agree or disagree with President Trump, I think Ronald Reagan and everyone at his roast would be mortified!!! I served my country proudly. So as a Veteran who volunteered to protect our country REGARDLESS OF ANYONE'S POLITICAL BELIEFS, I'm disgusted with how our current President TRUMP has been treated and DISGUSTED w/the political divide in our country now. I just wanted to express my beliefs in what I see happening since Obama's election, both Clinton's corruption that's claimed many lives, President Trump trying his damndest to steer this country in the right direction & how Former President Regan must see what's going on after all his hard work for our nation seems to be for nothing. President Ronald Reagan is someone to be revered & herald as one of THE WORLD'S GREATEST LEADERS!!!!!
