From vaudeville and radio to Hollywood and television, the late Red Skelton was truly the King Of Laughter, and this hilarious compilation celebrates his reign with comedy bits, sketches and Red’s trademark ad-libs. Of course, Red enacts such memorable characters as Cauliflower McPugg, Clem Kadiddlehopper, Willie Lump Lump, Deadeye and BBC newscaster Lord Beaverhead. You’ll also see rare clips from a rehearsal show with Martha Raye, with uncensored ad-libs and goofs never aired on TV, and the classic blooper that occurred when an onstage cow contributed its own unique “ad-lib.”

Classic Comedy. Red Skelton was one of the great classic comedians. Other than the ailing Bob Hope, there aren’t any other comedians living like Red Skelton. He was from an era of entertainers that have been lost from us forever. This DVD collection includes a small snippet from Red’s “Guzzler’s Gin” vaudeville routine, a trailer for the film PUBLIC PIGEON NO. 1, footage from Red’s Emmy-winning television show, and an uncensored television rehearsal with Martha Raye.
