That Was The Week That Was -- ABC-TV reboot (2004)
zhlédnutí 37Před 14 dny
This classic news satire got a several week tryout as a segment on Primetime Live in 2004. I was one of the writers, but satire was not a good fit for this magazine show, and was discontinued after a few weeks. TW3, as it was called, was created and hosted by David Frost and broadcast in Great Britain by the BBC in the early 1960s. An American version was produced for NBC, also in the early 1960s.

HBO Magazine visits Catch A Rising Star 10th Anniversary Special 1982
2006 or 2007, can't be sure, I met he and a few others from the movie at a shopping mall of all places in Orange Park, FL. I must tell you all they were the nicest group of people. It still is a highlight of my life. I smile every time I recall that day!
He was the epitome of comedy. Today's shows are pure trash. Half of the comedians just scream and curse, the other half have recycled material.
but tv preachers can do it
See you at the olympics
Quebec oui
I was 5 years old when this happened. I do not remember the New Years Day show, although I most likely watched it. I was very upset when the show was not aired. I remember my mother explained it to me with a very big smile.
I saw that when it happened! Love me some Soupy! ❤❤❤
Soupy pulls a Mike Lindell Mr. Pillow decades before he does..
We're not incerly dead ???? Usa
Most insercly dead ???? USA
And she not only most Inverclyde dead ???? Usa
I SAW IT TOO FUNNY
I SAW IT HOW HE ASKED FOR A BUCK GO TO THE MOMS BAG AND TAKE IT MAIL IT LMASO
Did you know - this is true - Soupy grew up in North Carolina where his father owned a dry-goods store. The local KKK used to buy their white sheets from him! He told that story himself !
That is true!
The coroner is awesome
“I want my dollar back “😂
That was the best line of the night!
Best wishes, a beautiful story
Very funny show ahead of its time. Do you remember the, “ what’s the difference between a snowman and a snow woman?” joke? It was on the same show, but no one called him on it. It would have made a great Capital One commercial. Just to have Soupy walk up to the camera at the end of the ad saying, “What’s in your wallet?” 😝
Bill Maher! LoL
The greatest comedian ever born.. I don't care what anyone else says about it.. One of his best was saying that marriage is a 3 ring circus .. the engagement ring, the wedding ring and the suffer ring.. I was drinking coffee when I heard him say that and I ended up snorting it out my nose..
He may have been a comic genius, but I cannot believe he committed a crime of stealing money on New Year’s Day in 1965.
You are the dullest person on earth
The heckler's line is PRICELESS. Period!
You'll live on forever in the Wizard of Oz, RIP.
This was played at Queen Elizabeth’s wake.
I'm confused ... he was 83 there ? Youngest looking 83-year-old man I've seen . I was 6 when he did this and I was watching it and I remembered feeling kind of antsy about the money because I really wanted to participate . I asked for a dollar from my mom she wanted to know what I wanted it for and I pointed at the TV and she wouldn't let me send it , haha . She was no fool .
he is not funny
RIP Wonderama host Sonny Fox and director Arthur Forrest. Both left us in 2021.
This is a behind-the-scenes footage of the classic American TV show Wonderama (a kid game show that debuted in the mid 50s). 🇺🇲 🇺🇲
We’re all thinking it and he just says it. Also it sounds like “as coroner I thought of her” which would make sense
I remember this episode. It was funny, even as a kid. Other episodes were fun, but he said a few things I didn't get but had my step-dad rolling on the floor. I asked him, "What's so funny, I don't get it?" He said "You'll get it when you get older". He was right.
I definitely remember that
as a kid i thought he said "as coroner, i massacre"
It sounds like “as coroner I thought of her” which matches the sardonic tone of the scene.
He was a very nice fellow...., I played guitar on his "MOUSE" record in the 60s and then met him and we chatted at a mutual friend's party in the early 90s. He was in very sad shape after the terrible accident he had.
For some reason I don't remember about his accident . Can you tell me what he said or what it was like chatting with him at that party ?
I believe he'd fallen off a stage and got a bad concussion. He didn't remember me, I had to remind him that I played guitar on his Mouse record. I don't recall much else of our short, general chat but he seemed in fine spirits.....@@gardensofthegods
My mom worked at the Scott Paper Company in the Detroit area.. they had a big Christmas Party for the employees and Soupy was there.. I was 5 and got to do the Soupy Shuffle with Soupy
I'm jealous. Do you have a photo?
RIP Soupy - he was the inspiration for Krusty the Klown! Hilarious when the woman shouts, "I want my dollar back!"
It's really a shame how many people don't know about him and how many didn't bother to talk about him years later because he definitely deserved to be remembered
Actually, David Letterman is the inspiration for Crusty. As soon as the cameras come off, David turns off the patter, laughter, and goofiness, and becomes grumpy Gus Crusty plays. . .
I thought he was fired from Wonderama in 1967? I watched the show when I was a kid on Long Island, NY
Not fired. He wanted to produce and went on to form his own production company.
That MTF was crazy..he used to say dirty jokes we could not understand as kids in the 60s but he was so phukin cool and talked cool we just thought he was Black like AdamClayton Powell.
Hmm hand gesture ?? Did like him as a kid but didnt get his humor then.. that all that was on
Nice
I was only in time for the new Soupy Sales show in 1979. When you are a little kid, this kind of entertainment is hard to find without it being drawn in a factory. He was the best!
I was lucky enough to actually remember when he asked us kids for the money I was 6 years old and I still have a pretty clear recollection of that because my mom wouldn't let me have a dollar to send him
Seeing this in Dec 2020...... VERY UPSET that I wasn't at the Brokerage to see Soupy when that video was made. I live in the same town as that club. Damn.
I'm two towns from you and I was there that night. AND I was right next to the woman who wanted her dollar back. The nerve.😅
I miss this guy! Unfortunately (or fortunately) I never sent him those “green pieces of paper” and for years I blamed myself for his show being cancelled. 😆
So...YOU'RE the guy !!
When I was watching that day I was 6 years old and I want to send them a dollar and my mom wouldn't let me but I remember feeling left out since she wouldn't let me participate . He was so cool , really wonderful energy
Dear, dear Soupy Sales. Watching Soupy's show is a cherished memory of childhood. There was a real connection between Soupy and his audience of youngsters.
That's because he was genuinely funny and cool
Hey Barry! Long time no etc.... About 10 years ago I found out (don't remember how) we were on the same NYC Kiddie show back in the early 60s: WOR's Funny Company, with Morty Gunty. Just think of all the conversations we coulda had while we were offstage waiting to go on (most likely, at the Brokerage). Ron D.
On "I must aver" he slurs the t in must and makes it hard to understand.
My mom was his caretaker in Jacksonville Florida and he held me as a little baby. I’m now a significant supporting actress in a Swedish movie by the name “pleasure” my name is “Revika Reustle”
Nice work
I watched this and remember thinking Dad would kill me if I did what he suggested. I think Sales said a postcard from Bermuda, not Puerto Rico. None the less, Soupy's show was a lot of fun.
I was watching yeah I was 6 years old and I asked my mom for a dollar and she wanted to know what I needed it for and I pointed to the TV and Soupy Sales and she just dismissed it and said no . I even remember feeling kind of antsy because I want it so much to send that to him as I just felt like all these other kids are going to be participating and I didn't want to be left out . He just had a way about him that made you feel like no matter what was going on everything would just work out

Excellent quality!!
1:21 Do that.
January 8,2026 will mark Soupy's 100th birthday.
