Four sketches performed with Dean Martin
Foster Brooks at the Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts here • Video

[@erniecouture2307]

The funniest part is watching Dean Crack Up with laughter Foster always made him crack up

[@maryt4575]

Dean never attended the rehearsals because he wanted to have genuine responses...so this is all Dean's real surprise and laughter!

[@MariaGarcia-eg4wk]

The new generation don't really know what's clean comedy,only the generation in our time can😂

[@marcusmedlock847]

Lol Foster Brooks was a gem. Dean tried so hard but he could not keep a straight face 😁

[@bsrlpar]

Dean Martin was the greatest. He had the lot. Talent plus being an extremely nice man. Incredibly funny and incredible singer.

[@jonmorgan4461]

I love Foster Brooks!

[@Edward-i7u4s]

​@jonmorgan4461 Foster is Dean's real life Dad, Go figure

[@Edward-i7u4s]

Oh No breaking of character at all😊

[@bsrlpar]

Dean was so handsome. I loved him.

Met Dean Martin at his home in Palm Springs on a professional level in 1982. The very nicest man you could ever expect to meet!

[@ralphschneider9283]

Way too funny, anyone else like this?

[@theresamills5095]

Love it. ❤

[@DouglasAyersMusic]

I can watch him over and over and I never stop laughing.

[@ricosuave8123]

I just love the fact that Dean Martin doesn’t even try to hide his laughter. He’s just enjoying being in the moment and could care less about breaking character.

[@johncollins7062]

It was not character. He did not attend rehearsals and came in only to tape.

[@johnathanmiller5464]

I had him busting😂😂😂😂😂

[@noreenmurphy9200]

Great the way foster kept in character

[@ronlovell3703]

Foster stays in character without skipping a beat 😂😂😂😂

[@bryanbranum7808]

Foster Brooks, he was one of a kind, never vulgar, never the drunk that he portrayed but he was spot on...much love & laughter. ❤️

[@paulleckner8235]

He and Dean were two members of Alcoholics Unanimous. What a cute joke!

[@toddbrown5955]

I’m 33 years old and my mom introduced me to all the amazing comedy duos and teams of the old days. Marx brothers, Laurel and hardy, Abbott and Costello, Martin and Lewis. Hope and Crosby. And my uncle told me about this guy. Oh man the laughs. Comedy gold

[@rodhanson7112]

FOSTER BROOKS WAS ONE OF THE funniest COMEDY MAN WHO EVER lived AND HE WAS THE ONLY MAN WHO EVER MADE A VERY GOOD DRUNK 😄

I never tire of watching these two fine entertainers. R.I.P. both of them.

[@pat12533]

These were the good old days when comedy was at it best. No vulgar words

[@TimTheTuner]

The tears of laughter would just roll down my Dad's face whenever Foster Brooks was on with Dean Martin. He also loved everything Harvey Korman and Tim Conway did on the Carol Burnett show.

[@bobbybrooks2078]

Love it 🤣

[@Stratoliner]

Tim Conway and the guy who usually play opposite of him (forgot his name) have such great chemistry that it makes me laugh. They are two hilarious peas in a pod. They don't make 'em like they used to!

[@howardcroft3748]

[@genehoward6101]

Such great comedy, I couldn't wait to see his next job. I'm 73 and still find this the. Best. Except for George Carlin.

[@gestebu]

My dad also got a big kick out of them. I can remember watching these shows with him when I was too young to drive so this is what we would watch. I laughed along although I didn't always quite get the humor. Those memories make watching these types of videos very special.

[@ruthpaige6689]

Comedy gems! Laughed our heads off whenever Foster Brooks did his act.

[@dougieladd]

You can tell from Deans reactions that he doesn't always know what Foster is going to do... or how he looks. Hilarious stuff. Foster never breaks character he was a genius :)

[@carvinlambert6899]

Dean Martin never, Ever, laughed as HARD as he did, around anyone, but Foster Brooks. The Chemistry between those two was utterly amazing! Several times they would veer off script, and do the whole segment by improvising, actually bringing the laughing Audience to tears! They'll never be Pure and Clean Comedy like that again.

[@greasylimpet3323]

I doubt there'll ever be entertainers like Dino again either. He was the definition of suave!

[@lesleybrett906]

Just Brilliant 🤣😅😂😅❤🙏

We watched Dean Martin show weekly years ago love to listen to him there he make everybody laugh and his singing voice was beautiful they'll never be another Dean Martin singer like him he's up there in the heavens for the rest of the great singers

Yes, Thursday night but the last season was on Friday night and why? We use to have sleepovers me and a few other guys and when our parents were watching this show, we went out running the streets having fun in 1974 Santa Paula Ca.....I was 9 years old!

[@daveorr824]

You sure got that right!

[@davidcunningham7330]

I'd heard that Dean never rehearsed and everything he did was off teleprompters. It's wonderful to watch him just totally breakup over some of FB's comebacks. True genius that couldn't be gotten away with today. I love the older shows.

This was the genius of Foster Brooks As soon as he walked into a room everyone was in tears of Laughter he didnt need to say anything he could just be there and people would Laugh their asses off and then when he did speak acting like a Drunk People Were in stitches Foster even Made the Late Grandmaster of Insult Comedy Don Rickles be in fits of uncontrollable laughter thats how Good of a Comedian Foster Was Hope your Resting peacefully Mr Brooks ❤️🙏

[@danzan6951]

Travis Carlson: 'Good of a Comedian Foster Was'? Only the inebriated could give this kind of kudo to Brooks. He pales by comparison to Rickles and Martin for trying to match their level of drinking comedy. The laughs from RIckles were more like charity laughs for a failed fake drunken bum. Same said for those laughing their asses off; just giving applause(laughs) to go along with the Rickles and the crowd in charity mode for him; Brooks just as disgusting as ever.

[@heat000]

I first saw him on tv with Dean as an airline pilot, there can’t be many what made Dean laugh so much, as soon as he walked in you knew what was going to happen

[@traviscarlson6718]
