In 68, I worked with my Dad in his shop at night so I missed about half a year of TV until summer when the reruns, political conventions and our first color set came along. So I'm more used to the 2nd season cast.
How did we ever find this drek entertaining? The odd thing is that Hee Haw continued in this vein for another 20-years after Laugh-In went off the air.
The thing is, I remember many times waiting for it to be funny ( like the 1980 season of SNL) but what people took away from the show were the catch phrases.
i was about 12yrs old, and this was one of my favourite shows on tv............ when we could get this.
I was 10 years old when this aired. Time really does fly.
I miss them all.
I was about 7 and I found this show was weird, baffling but fun. Now, it's still weird and fun, but I now can the jokes!
I was about 7 or 8. My whole family watched it. I was allowed to stay up for it...
Funny to see the Laugh-In ladies sing "The Old Sow Song." Spike Jones sang this on his album "Dinner Music for People Who Aren't Very Hungry" in 1956.
I wonder how many people knew that the song at 10:36 is Hold That Tiger. That's going way back.
Never forget Morgul the Friendly Drelb!

1968? classic first season.
Yes. Season One Episode 6 (not 7). Broadcast date Monday 26 Feb 1968.
I was about 4 and 5 when this show was on TV. Funny, but it is the kind of humor I understand.. Most today I don't get.
23:50 - I love how Buddy Hackett wraps this one up! (24:40) :)
The skit of the punk sisters. Hilarious
I grew up in Glendale and Burbank 1960s and 70s❤
SO.
I was 2 years and 8 months old, when this originally aired. I had to wait years later to see what all of the hub bub was about.
Yippy Skippy Leonard nimoy in search of my first paranormal teacher.
"Spock it to me!"
15 wks, 6 days old, at the time of this production, but I watched reruns years later.
17:18 - Dan was right! The Smothers Brothers reappeared briefly in 1988!
And the Howard Hughes routine also kind of looks ahead to the fake autobiography of him, the way she's never met him.
This was back when show bussiness was show bussiness.Yeah,this was the good ‘ol’ days of really,good,t.v.!
I would have loved to do Judy Carne Doggie style
Spock it to me?
Funny, Funny Funny,Funny.
I was 3 and barley remember this show.
Looking at Goldie Hawn with all that writing all over her reminds me of women of today with all those tattoos that they have today😢
I love most of my ink more than most of those men lol😅
They got the 1988 Smothers Brothers right, didn't last long.
That Dick Martin was a good looking man back then!!!
The people I grew up with.
I was 11, but they didn't think it was for kids, as there was too much adult themes...
The political jokes hold true to Today!!! (2024!)
We used to think this was funny. Back then it was fresh and new, you'd never seen the like!!!
Judging by this episode, it has not aged well.
in simpler times… for simple folks

@@markdraper3469 - That's true, "Sock it to me", "Here come da judge", "Verrry interesting" and others all came from Laugh-in.
i'd forgotten how really not funny these gags were. it was tism in televised form.
