[@lauranceemory4448]

Thanks so much for posting these. Must see for me back when first on. Fabulous

[@pauljensen519]

Thank you so much for uploading this! I saw this on PBS when it was first run and I've been wanting to watch it again for years.

[@thudeets]

Me too. I used to record the series onto VHS. Had this piece for a long time and either lost the cassette or taped over it. ARG!

He stars in one of my favorite movies. " Rachel Getting Married ". Brilliant.

[@Roxyg407]

Takes me back, I was such a Bill Irwin fan!!!!

[@2up3rm4n1]

Wow! I remember this program from back then, but surprise, surprise, there's William H. Macy Jr in that one soap looking setting.

[@pwulfe8728]

Thank you for sharing! Good art!

So Bert and Ernie met Mr. Noodle before Elmo did.

I remember seeing this as a teenager in the mid-80s. The dancers at 22:30 had a huge effect on me, possibly initiating my appreciation of redheads. And fishnets.

Thanks for posting this fabulous clip! Laurie, Bill and company got a lot of mileage from the primitive video tech back then.

I dearly wish I'd taped the first few seasons of this show, there's almost no way it'll ever come out on DVD.(home media)

[@pwulfe8728]

I wish I could find what I did tape of this show.

[@waltperry5781]

Brilliant.

[@prof_werneck]

Oh wow, I love the Ledzilla Ladies

[@Whatiswhat]

ah that was fun..

[@videooblivion]

2:11 It's not your fault, Laurie. Amiga Kickstart 1.2 was so finicky!

[@michaelcarbone6101]

Abstract Surreal Coherent?

[@ceroth5625]

Who is the casting agency blonde

[@declanjohn8517]

Anna Levine. Fun fact, the brunette woman who is watching the auditions (she calls out "next!") to bring them in is future Mrs. Irwin, Martha Roth.

[@MuzikJunky]

Laurie was so HOT! Peace.

6:07 for lesbians

[@declanjohn8517]

These were the gals! Avant garde performers (although not terrific dancers) of NYC in the 80s en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dancenoise

[@MauriceMossisitnot]

@@declanjohn8517 Thanks for the info, that was interesting.

Gee-too bad about the ballet. It was going so great but kept getting interrupted, and then didn't quite add up to a great ending. He should re-do the ballet before he gets to old and give it a real hilarious start and then build up to a some unbelievably imaginative and funny ending. ... but no.
