    The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

    My dad's favorite Victor Borge routine.
    If anyone said 'Loo-ten-ant', he'd correct them with a grin, saying, 'Loo-leven-ant'.
    RIP, daddy, and Victor, and thanx so so very much, dear gentlemen, for the magic, music, and memories.

    I wish when I were younger my parents had had this tape instead of the older performance. Borge's accent continued to become easier to understand over time, and for the Ed Sullivan audience, he seemed to spend a lot of time explaining "inflationary language." On the tape we had, this routine was right before and overlapping "Phonetic punctuation," and he seemed to hurry through them expecting the audience to know what was coming. These routines are confusing enough in the best of circumstances; imagine being 8 years old and hearing them one after the other at a frenzied pace.

    “… and lifted me up by my ears…” Makes me twoder if he was referring to Johnson’s famous arm-twisting…?

    • @blindleader42
      @blindleader42 Před rokem +2

      No. There's a famous photo, published in nearly every newspaper in the country, of Johnson lifting his pet beagle up by the ears. There was a fair amount of public comment and criticism about it.

    Truly a great .. excuse me ... grNINE dane. As a dane I should probably thank Hitler for making him have to flee Denmark. His talent deserved the bigger audience and he enjoyed both countries.
