The Very First Cocktail Party | ROWAN & MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN (1967)

Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In started with a special in 1967, which led to 6 seasons of the hugely successful series. While the sketch comedy show gave birth to so many catchphrases, it also created memorable moments from the joke wall to the cocktail parties. It all started with the first party and here it is!
Hosted by Dan Rowan and Dick Martin, this groundbreaking sketch comedy show was a fast-moving barrage of jokes, one-liners, running skits, and musical numbers. The groundbreaking, Emmy Award-winning show, created by George Schlatter, premiered in January, 1968 and ran until March, 1973.
A group of regulars including Goldie Hawn, Lily Tomlin, Jo Anne Worley, Ruth Buzzi, Arte Johnson, Henry Gibson, Judy Carne, Alan Sues, Chelsea Brown, and Gary Owens--plus frequent guests like Barbara Feldon, Flip Wilson and Don Rickles left a lasting impression on America.
Celebrities from tv, film, sports, and politics all made appearances on Laugh-In. Memorable appearances include Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, Johnny Carson, Carol Channing, Wilt Chamberlain, Cher, Tim Conway, Bobby Darin, Sammy Davis Jr., Hugh Hefner, Richard M. Nixon, Debbie Reynolds, Don Rickles, Peter Sellers, Dinah Shore, Ringo Starr, and so many more.

From the pilot episode in the fall of 1967. It was a bonus feature in the First Season box set.

I was born in 1979 and only got to watch this in reruns. Even though the jokes are severely dated, I still get quite a laugh. I love this!

[@LaughIn]

Thanks! We’re glad to have you back!

Shown on BBC2 this was a revelation - American humour that was snappy and intelligent - topical too. Judy Carne was charming and funny and Dan and Dick were so cool !

❤️ Thanks for the comment! Nice to hear how it was received.

I was a 12 year old kid when this show came out. Never missed any of their Monday night broadcasts on NBC. Rewatching it now shows how brilliant the comedy was, and it is still better than 95% of the garbage today called "comedy." Long live Laugh-In!!!🤪😂😂😂😂

Thanks for tuning in again!

I was only 4 or five, but I still loved it!

Holy moly I remember this show. Laugh in, but for some reason I didn’t find this one all that funny. Just one of those things. Some shows grab you & some don’t.

As a child I always wondered why they blabbed on when there was a party going on ?

_times use to be so much Fun_ Now it's, *DON'T* Drink the *Kool-Aid* or it'll be your Last 'cocktail party'. OH, and *DON'T Feed the Trolls.* Most Importantly, Don't Imagine Rights, *Exercise your Rights* before you're *ConTrolled.*
