Comedy has a rich history. Back to the early silent years of Keaton and Chaplin, on further to Laurel & Hardy, Marx Brothers, Three Stooges, Richard Pryor and myriad others up to the comedy of the present day. So many bits, lines, gags and scenes that make us laugh, which is a good thing. Here's a nice bit from Caddyshack.

Here's a classic from Seinfeld. Seems George was spied at the health club doing something against regulations which complicates Elaine's romantic aspirations...

I love comedy from Mack Sennett to Cantinflas to Mel Brooks to SNL. The list can go on and on seemingly forever. But whenever I start my list it always begins with my fave movie/short film of all time ~ "Easy Street" (1917):





written/directed by Charles Chaplin and co-starring huge Eric Campbell and beautiful Edna Purviance

great comediennes of the past:

Miss Daley was beautiful in her youth. But when she turned 30 or so she lost her beauty. That's when she changed into the funny lady she became.

A classic from the Honeymooners. Gleason at his best.

Moe was too funny. Whether his cohorts were in the wrong or he himself, they were going to get belted. Classic example here.

Just a phenomenal episode, all around.

A long while ago I mentioned that "Bensonhurst Bomber" of the Honeymooners show was my all time favorite TV episode. Sgt Bilko's Reunion episode comes in at a close second:

Scene punctuated by having the ever beautiful and talented Christine McIntyre. Great actress, comedienne, and a superb opera singer:

This is an all-timer episode of Barney Miller. The squad inadvertently partakes of some laced brownies. Full episode--no commercials.
