#15  Good lord — what on earth do they think a toke is?

My parents didn’t watch that show, but until the television broke when I was seven, we got to watch Gentle Ben, Lassie, Flipper, and Wild Kingdom on their appropriate days before we were sent off to bed. My baby brother got a little 13”” portable B&W thing with his bar mitzvah money a decade later, so we skipped straight from those shows to Soap and Saturday Night Live — which was exactly as startling as y’all might imagine.

#10  He did have quite a few excellent musicians on his show, though.

Pete Fountain, Dick Kesner and Myron Floren (yeah accordion, but he did make it work) to name a few.

#6  All of these comments indicate knowledge that could only be gained by spending significant amounts of time watching old Larry do his thing. But, hey, there's no shame in it.
