On the other hand I have read that the rehearsals for Red Skelton's show were known for their blue humor.

I Loved the Red Skelton show! I wouldn't miss it for the world. I liked it more than Gleason an Berle.
I agree the Pledge of Allegiance should be watched by every person in this country, including members of the Senate , HOR and the President.

I had tickets to his show when he was in MI. Forget why but he cancelled a couple days before. I was pretty disapointed for sure.
Sorry about that, chief.
Missed me by THAT much.
Would you believe?
How about this one:
Tonight we're going to have a really big shoe.
Let's hear it for the Russian Dancing Bears
Tonight, on our stage tonight, we have.....The Beatles!
Or this one:
Guess the secret woid and you'll win an extra fifty dollahs.
Come down here, boid.
Or:
He's dead, Jim
Fascinating
Scotty, we need more power!
Or even:
Stifle Edith
Hey, Meathead
Oh, Aaaah-chie
Who remembers this one:
You are number 6
Be seeing you
What do you want? Information. Who's side are you on? That would be telling.
Or this:
You know, there's this one thing that bothers me
My wife always calls about some errand at the grocery store.
There are a couple of loose ends I'd like to tie up. Nothing important you understand.
This was a summer replacement....
Hey Grandpa. What's for supper?
Sal-lute!

The Red Skelton show had some great humor and I always watched it.
The Honeymooners, Gleason always will be number 1 with me.
I always loved it when he said:"One of these days Alice, just one of these days...POW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!--RIGHT IN THE KISSER.:!!!!!!!

I'm not surprised people don't remember "The Prisoner". Patrick McGoohan was a secret agent who, on his resignation, is taken to an island and subjected to brainwashing. It was surrealistic and obtuse with conversations sometimes nothing but non sequitur. At the end of the intro after being questioned he states, "I am not a number. I am a free man."
PS Something that some may remember about 'The Prisoner'. Whenever he would try to escape from the island they sent these giant pink bubble gum balls to catch him and bring him back. The image of him being smothered by one was kind of disturbing.
This was a fun trip down memory lane. We'll have to do more.
I think the 'worst' thing I ever heard Red Skelton say was to a lady looking for her purse and was told, "You'll have to go to Helen Hunt for it."

Thank you, I forgot that tune.
I'll sing the "Gloom, Despair and Agony on me" at work when someone whines. Not many get it, but they all think I'm nuts.
Gloom, despair and agony on me.....
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery (ohhhhh)
If it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all (ohhhh)
