This is true class and comedy combined. Don Rickles picked on everyone. My favorite part is when Nipsey had his say. " Up Yours Don!" Imagine the laughter afterwards back stage. This era of comedians were politically incorrect to the max by today's standards. They could laugh at themselves and others. All races would burn each other hysterically.

Never imagined someone quoting Don Rickles and making me laugh as much as I just did, Thanks Rowan & Martin, you did 1-derfully and had Mr Rickles in stitches !!!

Always liked Rowan and Martin. R.I.P.

This was the funniest roast that was aired, Rowan and Martin were funny reading Rickles insults

Rowan & Martin, two of the greatest funny guys, watch the timing - fantastic!! Sadly, most of these funny men are no longer with us - never to be replaced.

Foster Brooks is hysterical as always.

I used to watch Laugh-in every Monday.

Classic 🌈 Nipsey Russell 🤣 was great too ! This was a funny bit ! I’m 57 now and remember well 🦋

Overall, the roast for Don Rickles was just about the best.

That was a bloody hysterical routine. they were really great when they were "on."

Great timing and talent.

Back when people could take a joke and weren't so sensitive. Great times missing them dearly.

Thomas Richard Martin (January 30, 1922 - May 24, 2008), known professionally as Dick Martin, was an American comedian and director. He was known for his role as the co-host of the sketch comedy program Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In from 1968 to 1973.

These come back to haunt don't they LMFAO

These two were the funniest comedy team of all time. I watched their show, Laugh-In, in first run way back when and it was hilarious.

Rowan and Martin, who were hilarious comedians, remind us here that Don Rickles' comedy is not so much in the lines, but in his masterful delivery and timing of those lines. Many of the world's greatest comics have acknowledged Rickles' particular skills in these areas. But the lines are still important, even if the delivery and timing of them are (deliberately) missing in the Rowan and Martin renditions of them, to make their own comic point. When Rickles earlier in his career tried to apply his sense of timing to telling regular jokes or doing impressions of famous people, he wasn't very successful. It was his discovery that had a real talent for dealing with hecklers and making terrific comedic comebacks by "attacking" them back. From there, he built his entire act around "killing" members of the audience, but in a comedic way.

The entire Don Rickles roast was great, but with the exception of Foster Brooks, Rowan and Martin were definitely the best. This was just inspired!

This segment always makes me laugh. ANYWAY, GANG..."

I miss seeing grown men have fun with hilarious wit! Those days are gone.

The talent level is unbelievable from this era..I'm just a very small part of this..Robert at 67.

I love the deadpan delivery, especially when he said “Anyway gang”

Add Charlie Callas to the list just priceless!!!!!!!!

Actually, two straight men in Hollywood is indeed, unusual. :)

Rowan and Martin. They deserve any comedy award they ever received. (btw, in those days this was very progressive and liberating humor. Seriously)

Put more of Rowan and Martin. There are great.

"Where the hell's the punchline?" LOLOLOLOLOLOL

They were called roasts back then because every one of these people are smoking down the place! Holy shit lol Love Dick and Dan

Groucho Marks once said of Dan Rowan - the greatest Straight man of all time - here, here.

Daniel Hale Rowan (July 22, 1922 - September 22, 1987) was an American actor and comedian. He was featured in the television show Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, wherein he played straight man to Dick Martin and won the 1969 Emmy for Outstanding Variety or Musical Series.

Run baby run the poor guy was off course😜😜😜Great routine Rowan &Martin

Fucking brilliant. Broke him down like a pair of...hockey pocks.

Dan Rowan was a very good comedian and straight man. Second only to Bud Abbott.

Love, love Rowan and Martin

R&M were always fun to watch.

Listening to them try to do some of don rickles jokes is Great it had me in tears from laughing

Rowan and martin laugh in was a classic great!! Sock it to me!!

Best on the dais.

“People wonder why Rickles was so mean. He’s been that way ever since he found out Eva Braun was two-timing him.” Dean Martin

Look I'll Sell You A Bike LMAO

What goes around, comes around.

I quote the words of the great Indian Geronimo, as he jumped on his horse - *UUHH!* 😆

I'm laughing so hard, I'm crying

ANYWAY GANG

Dan Rowan was in Double Impact and Tango & Cash. Good actor.

They gave it to Don pretty good. lol

Charlie Callas was the hit at this roast. Look it up.

What a smile on Dick Martin!!!!!!!!!! It's infectious

Dan Rowan lived, ate and breathed show business. In 1975 Frank Sinatra threw a party at his house for the Apollo / Soyuz astronauts and cosmonauts. Rowan was there talking to a friend and the friend said, "Why don't you go over and meet the cosmonauts?". Rowan replied, "Oh, they don't want to meet me, they'd rather meet Sinatra". The other guy said, "Dan, these guys are from Russia, they don't even know who Sinatra is". Rowan was amazed that anyone could not know Sinatra and said, "Well, if they don't know Sinatra f--- 'em!"

Look, I'll sell you a bike...

Rickles would be out of a job today! It's no longer acceptable to laugh at ourselves!

Anyway gang!!!

"Two straight men" 👀😁🤣

I used to watch this type of politically incorrect comedy, when I was a kid. I laughed way more than my parents. Maybe, I simply got the jokes and they didn't. Priceless stuff it's

How did Klugman get the plumb seat next to Rickles ?

Back when ethnics knew their place... back when America was great!

F---ing great ,funny,funny,funny,.

What happened between then and now? Honestly? Comedy has faded!

I don’t know if it’s me, but I never did Find Don Rickles that funny

"Anybody coming towards me?"

Colored guy, 1970 😮

Hilarious

Is Dean Martin drunk in all of these?!? Lol!!

Dean is slurring his words again. Oh, it's just an act, I forgot. ☺️

Dean Martin was a strict teatollar. Fyi.

LOLOLOLOLOL

its not funny

Some of this humor has not aged well.

The aback story surgically moan because letter phylogenetically preach worth a curvy sweets. stale, solid move

The secretive step-daughter optimally haunt because planet thankfully remember excluding a capable mandolin. coordinated, best kamikaze

Don't think foster brooks is funny at all!
