RIP Tim Conway. You will always be known as a comedic genius and lovely, kind person.

[@angelagoodwin5758]

Back when we had only 3 channels to watch but had quality entertainment.

[@katyb454]

Hilarious. These three made television great. It's not so great anymore. This is pure comedy.

[@hendrikdebruin4012]

Nothing is great any more for sure. It has all gone down the drain.

Tim Conway was the king of slapstick comedy.

[@sarahcrews2544]

I about lost it when the gas went in his pants "why you're stealing gasoline"

[@styldsteel1]

I can't remember laughing so friggen hard. Lol

[@inkyguy]

Sarah Crews, part of the humor is lost. This was produced and broadcast during the U.S. energy crisis, and thieves stole gasoline by actually siphoning gasoline from others' cars.

[@LLthereistome2024]

I would love to have this service come back. We will miss you Mr. Conway

[@yolandagrady7232]

Poor Tim! I wanted to BEG him to stop asking that mean attendant questions.

So true!!!

[@inkyguy]

Cheyney mcneil, starting in the 80s we stripped music and arts from our schools to save money and just teach kids "the basics." Once one or two generations pass through without being given that cultural legacy and the richness of the arts, you no longer have an audience for things like this.

[@hana.the.writer5074]

🤦🏻‍♀️ Whoever came with idea of self service was a disarrayed person followed by a bunch of look-alikes!! Thank goodness we have no such thing in my region. Service is equal.

[@moonglow1311]

My dad reminded me of Tim. He never paid 4 high octane or premium gas. He would get out and pump his own gas, check his oil and used the squeegee to clean his windshield - all for a savings of a few pennies!!

[@Barbe]

And they still helped if asked. xD They wouldn't call him "Cheapo".

[@linato1855]

So that’s why he was wearing those weird pants! I don’t know how I missed this episode back then…Tim was unique❣️

[@kellycaviness4850]

When I think of all the different people who have done SNL over the years there's none that compare to Tim. They had to try and be funny but not Tim. He was a natural and it showed and that quick wit was something! It's really not fair to the SNL staff because Tim is way way out of their league.

[@newstart49]

We had a work program when I was in high school in the 70's. I went to school till noon, then went to work at a service station till 6 pm. I made $1.50 an hour. We checked the tires, oil, cleaned the windshield, checked belts and hoses and brake fluid and power steering fluid. Was a Gulf Station and gas was $.32 a gallon.

[@pamelamechling8647]

newstart49 I'm sure you did a good job and with a smile. I never thought at the time that those days would only be faded memories. Thanks for sharing!

[@hankaustin7091]

hi newstart49... that sure brought back some great memories from my childhood.. if I ever start up a full-service gas station. .I want to hire you as the head of personnel, so we get the right people hired, cuz it sounds like you knew what you were doing!

[@marlenathornsbeary2800]

newstart49 how much was super gas or 93 octane and 89 octane? Just wondering very interesting story!

[@gk10002000]

I too pumped gas. Got 10 bucks for the night. We pumped the gas and did the windshields. We were teens and car savvy and would help with anything else if asked, like check the tires, oil, etc

[@woozleboy]

A lot of prop work went into that comedy sketch. The Chevy Vega model here has the fuel filler behind the rear license plate, not the side. The hood also is hinged to tilt forwards, opposite of what you see here. Today this $3500 original price car is worth $5-7k.

I sure do miss having a proper gas attendant...especially during the winter, it gets cold in Maine! Seriously, I remember when the gas stations started changing to self-service. We all hated it! My mother refused to learn how to do it, and to this day has never pumped her own gas once! (It was nice, pulling up to the pump and having all these little extras done for you. I wish things hadn't changed!)
