One of the funniest bewitched episodes was when Uncle Arthur was going to teach Darrin an incantation to get Endora to back off when she got nasty. He gives Darrin a kazoo and a cowbell and makes him sing the "yagga zoozy song". I laughed out loud and I still do. Darrin is singing this stupid song and playing the kazoo and shaking the cowbell and Uncle Arthur is back in the hallway laughing so hard he is losing it.

One of my favorite Paul Lynde responses was when he was asked, "Paul, why do motorcycle drivers wear leather jackets?" He paused for a moment, and then responded, "because chiffon wrinkles". I never forgot that line. It was one of the funniest he ever came up with. He was a trouble man in his private life, but a wonderful character in the roles he played. RIP.

@@Kimidoyle I'm only repeating what everyone connected with the show says. HS was a comedy show, disguised as a game show, and had a staff of writers writing the questions, their plausible bluff answers, and of course, the all important comedic zingers. Each week, they filmed that week's 5 episodes, in one day. Each star had their own dedicated set of questions(you can often see Peter Marshall carefully selecting a star specific question), and prior to an episode's filming, the stars were taken aside and without revealing the actual questions(which they technically heard for the first time on camera), were supplied with correct answers, plausible bluffs and in certain cases, comedic zingers. Paul Lynde, being the center square, got picked more often than the others, and was the main purveyor of the comedy writers' efforts, written specifically for Paul Lynde's "voice", based on who he was and how he was perceived. So 3-5, at most, jokes per episode, delivered in his inimitable style. To use the joke above, prior to filming that episode, Lynde was told that bikers wear leather to prevent road rash, though some people think it's to keep warm, but it's definitely not because chiffon wrinkles too easily. Boom! It's locked in his short term memory and when he hears the actual question for the first time, he's got the zinger on deck and when the laughter dies down he's free to reply with the correct answer, the plausible bluff or some other answer. Next time he's called, he's got another one of those 3-5 sets of answer packages , he was just briefed on, to help him reply with. The gameplay was legit and the stars were free to answer how they saw fit-bluff or answer correctly, but only after they delivered their zinger, IF they actually had one written for them. That's why some of the other stars' "jokes" seem weak, they are supplying their own, spur of the moment, attempts at cleverness. Obviously, Paul Lynde was free to paraphrase or come up with his own improvements on the supplied zinger and might very well have, from time to time, but as I said, his claim to fame was his perfect delivery of those supplied jokes.

I love Paul Lynde. I watched Bewitched from the first episode and it was in black and white. Paul's first role in that series was Samantha's driving instructor.

Back in those days, I guess there wasn't enough people to take roles, so, actresses and actors would play more than one role on a show. It was common place.

One of the funniest bewitched episodes was when Uncle Arthur was going to teach Darrin an incantation to get Endora to back off when she got nasty. He gives Darrin a kazoo and a cowbell and makes him sing the "yagga zoozy song". I laughed out loud and I still do. Darrin is singing this stupid song and playing the kazoo and shaking the cowbell and Uncle Arthur is back in the hallway laughing so hard he is losing it.
One of my favorite Paul Lynde responses was when he was asked, "Paul, why do motorcycle drivers wear leather jackets?" He paused for a moment, and then responded, "because chiffon wrinkles". I never forgot that line. It was one of the funniest he ever came up with. He was a trouble man in his private life, but a wonderful character in the roles he played. RIP.

@@Kimidoyle I'm only repeating what everyone connected with the show says. HS was a comedy show, disguised as a game show, and had a staff of writers writing the questions, their plausible bluff answers, and of course, the all important comedic zingers. Each week, they filmed that week's 5 episodes, in one day. Each star had their own dedicated set of questions(you can often see Peter Marshall carefully selecting a star specific question), and prior to an episode's filming, the stars were taken aside and without revealing the actual questions(which they technically heard for the first time on camera), were supplied with correct answers, plausible bluffs and in certain cases, comedic zingers. Paul Lynde, being the center square, got picked more often than the others, and was the main purveyor of the comedy writers' efforts, written specifically for Paul Lynde's "voice", based on who he was and how he was perceived. So 3-5, at most, jokes per episode, delivered in his inimitable style. To use the joke above, prior to filming that episode, Lynde was told that bikers wear leather to prevent road rash, though some people think it's to keep warm, but it's definitely not because chiffon wrinkles too easily. Boom! It's locked in his short term memory and when he hears the actual question for the first time, he's got the zinger on deck and when the laughter dies down he's free to reply with the correct answer, the plausible bluff or some other answer. Next time he's called, he's got another one of those 3-5 sets of answer packages , he was just briefed on, to help him reply with. The gameplay was legit and the stars were free to answer how they saw fit-bluff or answer correctly, but only after they delivered their zinger, IF they actually had one written for them. That's why some of the other stars' "jokes" seem weak, they are supplying their own, spur of the moment, attempts at cleverness. Obviously, Paul Lynde was free to paraphrase or come up with his own improvements on the supplied zinger and might very well have, from time to time, but as I said, his claim to fame was his perfect delivery of those supplied jokes.
Some of the best scenes in Bewitched, are the ones with Uncle Arthur and Endora. And he ad-libbed his whole role, iirc. Freaking hilarious! RIP Mr. Lynde

Paul, RIP...I recall watching you on TV as a kid. My life lately has taken such a rotten turn...watching you brings a smile to me, which I need so much. You made me laugh and still do! No one will EVER replace your talent!

I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. One of a kind classic.
This is Absolute Gold.. Paul Lynde was Very Intelligent.. Brilliant.. And Extremely Witty and Just Downright Hilarious... I Laughed So Hard... And Man Does He Nail Alice Ghostley's Manerism's.. And The Snickers at The End... Perfect... Lol.. Rest in Power to The One and Only Paul Lynde 💖💖
PAUL L was, & still is, one of the wittiest, quick, naturally funny HUMORIST ever!!
I will always think Paul's funniest thing was on Bewitched when Darin was fooled into thinking that he had been given the ability to cast spells like a warlock!

Me too. He told Samantha it was to give Darrin confidence. There was no spell on it.
Paul won several Emmys for his role on the Hollywood Squares. His sharp wit and delivery were such fun. My mom and I watched the show daily, mostly for Paul’s humour. I didn’t understand many of his jokes but laughed anyway because of his funny delivery.

Paul Lynde was hilarious as Uncle Arthur on Bewitched. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Paul was a marvelous person ; I’ve always liked his wit and charm , those one liners were so funny; so spot on .
My God! How pathetic! All the comments making such a fuss about Paul Lynde being gay! So what! Concentrate on what is important - that he was a comedic genius with great timing and delivery instead of what his personal life was. As a straight guy, knowing Paul was gay never deterred me from enjoying or appreciating his talent.

I love Paul Lynde. I watched Bewitched from the first episode and it was in black and white. Paul's first role in that series was Samantha's driving instructor. It was hysterical❣️Watch it if you have never seen it. Later, he came back as Uncle Arthur. Back in those days, I guess there wasn't enough people to take roles, so, actresses and actors would play more than one role on a show. It was common place. I don't think I ever saw him in anything that wasn't outrageously funny, pure natural talent❣️😂🤣I love you Paul❣️ RIP😂🤣🕯️🎆😇😁🥰💖🌹☮️🇺🇲🤗🦋
this is the funniest thing ive ever seen in my life.
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this, it has just been a pleasure laughing at one amazing comic as he was, my all time favorite. He was one of kind!!!

Writers gave Cliff Arquette(lovely Rosanna's grandpa)some excellent answers but, those Mr. Lynde had ready(thought up, himself),always, were clever and, quite amusing! This was enhanced, by his impeccable delivery and, timing-as has been noted.

He was a campy dear soul , just wanted to be loved and make people feel good! He was ashamed of his father being a butcher.
The way he queened it up was hilarious
He was the reason I watched the Hollywood squares he was so funny

I was too young back then to appreciate his sense of humor. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
He was fantastic with an incredible sense of quik humor always
Paul Lynde was so. terrific. Can you imagine if he had been born later and hadn't had to hide his sexuality how even more brilliant his campy humour would have been. Today he could just let it rip. Those times were so cruel. No wonder he was so troubled.😢

@@CanvasCanary Ask the comedians. Or the movie directors. Most say that so of the funniest movies and tv shows ever made could not me made today because everyone is “so easily offended” (same as ‘a lack of humor’).
I grew up watching Paul Lynde and I'm so happy to still be able to see him! I still luv how he makes me laugh but now I understand the jokes as an adult. ❤ He passed so young.
