Red Skelton And Walter Brennan

[@James_Knott]

I used to regularly watch the Red Skelton TV show when I was a kid. I also remember Walter Brennan from The Real McCoys.

[@jeffreyfoster8413]

He also did The Sons of Will Sonnet and The Last Tycoon

I don't remember missing very many episodes of Red Skelton. He had everybody on his show, from Charles Bronson to John Wayne. The man was comedic genius.

I doubt it would stay on. Plus who would write it WITHOUT vulgar jokes?

[@zarroth]

@@nancycalhoun3702 can see stuff like this at the local level pretty much everywhere. All it takes is removing control of the industry from the 6 families that hold it all today. Easily done by simply abandoning them for a few years. It's already begun. You being a pessimist is a you problem though.

My father saw Red Skelton’s show once. Was supposed to be an hour, but Red kept going for two hours. Dad said he never laughed so hard in his life.

[@James_Knott]

I also saw him once many years ago. It was at the Canadian National Exhibition Grandstand show. All the big entertainers appeared there. I also saw Bob Hope, Bill Cosby and the Beachboys, at different times of course. I also watched a concert for Canadian athletes going to the 1980 Olympics in Moscow. That show included Gordon Lightfoot, Harry Chapin, Liona Boyd and others. There was real entertainment back then. BTW, when I was a kid, I watched the Three Stooges in the matinee there.

From clubs, to movies then years on TV.. Red was proud of the fact that he never once used profanity to share his comedy with, we, his fans. Red definitely was one of the very kindest and most gentle people on this earth.

I love hearing him say The Pledge of Allegiance.

[@yowzephyr]

Okay, I love Red. But let's not make him too saintly. I read a biography about him. His wife had been cheating on him. I forget her name. Let's say Kathy. He was with his wife and Humphrey Bogart. A woman walked by and Bogie said "She's known to be the best c*%&sucker in town." Red patted his wife on the head and said "Oh now don't say that. You'll make Kathy jealous."

I don't see any evidence that what you say is true Lonnie Stevens. Can you show me some proof. One of the biggest harms of the internet is people posting false information and people taking it as true just because it's on the internet.

LOL a red skeleton! Remember when that was in the Three Stooges? A skeleton ghost introduced himself as Red Skeleton. I met Red Skeleton one time when he was very old. I was walking across the lobby of the Quaker Square Hilton in Akron OH and I saw this familiar, tall, old man, accompanied by a younger (not young, maybe 50) blonde woman. I walked over and stuck my hand out and his hand completely enclosed mine. I told him I love his work and appreciated that it was clean, not vulgar. He thanked me and we moved on. He was in town for one of those "An Evening with Red Skeleton" shows. I would have gone but it was the night before.

I remembered seeing the red skeleton in the early 60's including a 1958 repeat for summer, way before half them became kinescoped.but after seeing a 1961 clip of the Red Skelton show in its videotape form from c.b.s.I suspect they got the videotapes preserved and restored, but have not put them out on DVD yet like they have not yet with The Dinah shore chevy show videos. I got a DVD on red skeleton show but half are kinescope an only the 1968 episodes are videotape. This was from the Skelton estate, which mostly owns the Kinescopes.Like Carrol, Burnette,I watch this show from 61 c.b.s. to 69 on n.b.c. I Remember one episode in which he invited the government official of California or Los Angeles on a Christmas show appearance. near the end of the show. Wishing Skelton a merry Christmas.
