This brings back so many great memories. I truly miss this era of television 📺 and comedy greats that would get together for these Roasts. Never could you get to see so many great individuals under one roof at the same table. You knew you were in for a great night when Dean Martin was on top of his GAME and FOSTER BROOKS as well. I watched these Roasts especially because of them. The Golden age of television was a special time and we will never see such great comedy like we had in the 60's & 70's.. these were special times and something today's generation will never get to experience. I enjoyed this film 🎥 very much. Well done ✌🏽

This is a great episode that I never knew existed until now. I am noticing stark differences between today's roast to this roast.. this roast is more family friendly... miss ya Ms. Betty!

Fellow Canadian, Rich Little, to the rescue. This was great.

Peter Marshall, Jimmie Walker, and Rich Little are all still with us, for now.

In 1978! they were commenting on Ms. White's age. Huh? Nobody knew she would be active and awarded for 40 more years??? Dude. I would have hit that so hard in 1978.

Aunt Esther was hilarious. Everybody having fun. "Redd Foxx and Red Eyes" :)

I haven't even thought about Red Buttons since I was a kid. Now that I'm an adult, I can know how much of a pro he was. He totally killed with his time.

in reality, he didn't drink. He always wanted to be at the top of his game and would not drink during the day. He and Brooks were known for their acting drunk, and they would set each other off on stage. He did not like long rehearsals for his weekly show in part because he wanted to make it to dinner with his family every night. He then relied on adlibs and slip ups during the taping of each episode.

Euanna and Red Foxx were actually childhood friends. They played their parts so convincingly viewers would have never guessed theyvwere close personal friends. Shecwasxa beautiful lady inside and out!

The craziest thing about this is seeing Dean Martin hold a cigarette on TV 🤣 *So this is the training she went through to prepare herself for the Golden girls 🤣 . *You know watching Milton Berle If you've ever seen Jonathan Ross from English television I'm starting to see one of Jonathan's influences here I suspect ...

Decades later, Betty White would be on the dais for William Shatner's roast on Comedy Central. Some of her best zingers: "Isn't this just wonderful, I mean, all you youngsters getting together to tell naughty jokes? Ah, it's like the great roasts I went to in the good ol' days. Of course, you wouldn't of been allowed in, Nichelle [Nichols (Uhura)], sorry." "Let's face it! We all know [William] Shatner's nuts! But George [Takei] has actually tasted them!"

As of February 2023, Jimmy Walker is still alive.
