I ordered the "No Stomach, The Stomach Eliminator" 3 months ago. I sent $19.95 to the PO box listed in the commercial. The check cleared, but I have yet to see my "No Stomach". I even called the 800 number, and it just rings! I am this close to notifying the Better Business Bureau!

That Steve Lawrence and Edie Gorme bit?--how truly great! Hilarious lyrics and...they can really sing (which should be no surprise!). I wonder how many younger viewers will catch on to exactly how perfectly that song and Dave Thomas and Catherine O'Hara's performance captures the essence of the original Steve and Edie, their on-stage shtick?

All extremely funny - Bittman is an absolute gem and the way he talks to the child while holding a cigarette on top of the kids head is just genius. Its too bad they had to end it all on a Candy weight joke. I know he was fun loving, but from what Ive read the digs about his weight really did hurt him even though he always went along.

It just dawned on me that Bobby is always "getting serious" for a moment. I think he says, "In all seriousness," "Let me get serious for a minute..." or "As a comic...(some serious thing)" in every appearance. I guess I'm slow, because it took me a long time to realize that vampires like Count Floyd should not be howling like werewolves.

It's just one of those things kids, you had to be there. Jerry Lewis ran this telethon every year for Muscular Dystrophy, a very rare disease, and he would bring kids in wheelchairs out on stage and cry and at the end sing that song. Every Labor Day we had to watch a hundred acts, obscure night club acts during the wee hours and an appearance from celebrities like Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin in the prime time. It was considered a big break to get scheduled to perform, almost as big as The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Albeit for a good cause, the whole thing got to be so plastic and the people coming on to perform were so obviously either trying make the "big time" if they were nobody's or virtue signalling celebrities that it frankly came off as pathetic. Thanks to the crew at SCTV this skit gave some of us some satisfying closure. lol

Wonderful, wonderful hilarious spoof of those cringe-inducing old telethons. Seems that maybe it was inspired by the legendary Steve Allen telethon spoof from the mid-60's, the PRICKLY-HEAT TELETHON. Only thing that could've been a little better was to do more with Andrea Martin as Lorna Minelli. Or, even better, a visit from Pirini Schleroas doing her bit to support the quest for gold! --THAT would have been solid gold in itself!
