  • Laugh-In broke down the traditional separation of comedy, musical performance, and dramatic interludes which had marked most of the earlier variety shows and changed the celebrity host's conventional position as mediator of the flow of entertainment. Dan Rowan and Dick Martin, successful Las Vegas entertainers, sought to orchestrate the proceedings but were constantly swamped by the flow of sight-gags and eccentric performances which surrounded them. Similarly, guest stars played no privileged role here.
    Everyone seemed to want to appear on Laugh-In, with guests on one memorable episode including Jack Lemmon, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Hugh Hefner, and presidential candidate Richard Nixon. But no guest appeared for more than a few seconds at a time, and none received the kind of screen time grabbed by the program's ensemble of talented young clowns.
    The comic regulars -- Goldie Hawn's dizzy blonde, Lily Tomlin's snorting telephone operator, Ruth Buzzi's perpetually-frustrated spinster, Arte Johnson's lecherous old man, Jo Anne Worley's anti-Chicken-Joke militant, Henry Gibson's soft-spoken banal poet, Pigmeat Markham's all-powerful Judge and countless others dominated the program -- along with Gary Owens' over-modulated announcer. Many of these comics moved almost overnight from total unknowns to household names and many became important stars for the subsequent decades.
    This video is a continuation of the compilation of some of the highlights of the series

    The Joke Wall was total pandemonium. They were SO high.

    Laugh-In broke down so many barriers and crossed so many lines. It's hard to believe it was only on air 5 years! The ensemble cast on Laugh In and the sheer numbers of guests, across every spectrum, demonstrated just what a huge impact it had on entertainment at the time.
    ~Oh...and it was the funniest damn program to ever be aired on national television - then or now! "Was that a chicken joke?"

    I wish they’d shown what was going on BEHIND the joke wall. As Alan Sues said on one show, “It’s a jungle back here.”

    The Tricycle fall mocked the second coming of Jesus Christ! We are there!Bible Prophecies are always 100% true history and archeology prove that the prophets were from Yahweh!
    Jesus gave the Fig Tree Prophecies :
    “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now-and never to be equaled again. “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.See, I have told you ahead of time.“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.”‭‭Matthew‬ ‭24:7-8, 12, 14, 21-22, 25, 32-35‬ ‭NIV‬‬bible.com/111/mat.24.7-8,12,14,21-22,25,32-35.niv
