Ke633 Chuck Tingle would make that bear a male, given him a business suit and set the story in a high rise.. 😂😂😂 7y

drokka This is one of those times where I cannot come up with a plausible narrative to try and explain to myself why it is that this sort of warning is required. 8y
Soubhiville I'm with you @drokka , I don't see any scenario where this was necessary... but it's pretty funny! 8y

Mehso-so

I wanted to love this, and did enjoy most of it. It dives almost too deep, breaking down the amazing, historic Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour and its weekly battle with CBS censors like a play-by-play. It reads like a book written over the course of years (15 based on the author's note at the end), with situations and people introduced and re-introduced multiple times. It is definitely an interesting snapshot of the times, as they were a-changin.
