Born in 56 and blessed with a wholesome childhood. Truly blessed by the lovely Smothers Brothers, Carson, Melanie, Rowan and Martins Laugh In. Precious yesteryears. What a tender but drastic time to be 14 yrs old in 70' 🌹♥️🙏

I loved their show and was disappointed when they got fired over the material presented on their show. It was stupid and ridiculous because everyone has the right to their own opinion and back then even the "MAN FROM UNCLE" show got terminated over a special episode that the President Nixon didn't like? Can you imagine the audacity of that man? So not only "The Smothers Brother got canned so did "MAN FROM UNCLE" A spy show.

My parents let me stay up to watch their series when I was 11 YO. They were catalysts for so many TV comedians and shows that followed. No Laugh In or SNL without them. They performed a clean, legal, funny challenge of the goverment and society as gentleman - always. The sneaky way they slammed the cancellation of Lou Grant. They were lovable.
@TorstenAdair7 ай бұрын
Laugh-In ran at the same time, and beat them at the Emmys. Two different styles of political satire. Also two different styles of show: TSB was a variety show, Laugh-In was skit comedy. As for SNL, their Genesis came from improv and National Lampoon, and the general counter-culture comedy that had been fermenting and formenting since Lenny Bruce (and MAD Magazine).

Tommy's deft and subtle joke (which some in the audience get) about appearing on Lou Grant refers to the brothers' show cancellation at the end of the 60's for political reasons. It is strongly suspected that Lou Grant was canceled for same, owing to the outspokenness of Ed Asner.

I taked race cars with Dick Smothers and walked out into the L.A. sunshine thinking "see the word isn't so bad"...
