Indeed. Reality TV has little, to no creative influence, not much of a script (whatever IS scripted is obvious), and normally consists of contestants that make an complete fool (a$$) of themselves for the sake of being "on-air" (oh boy, TV 🙄), and chump change when compared to ad revenue. Then there are "game" shows on dumb dumb TV. Even jackpots of $100,000 is less than most 00.00:30 second spots costs. Every commercial costs between $120,000-$$160,000.00 for a 00.00.22 second spot so spare us with the voice over of contestants winning $5000 (FIVE THOUSAND) dollars 👀🙄, 🐑🐏 being played and they haven't got a clue. I understand wanting to "Turn on, tune out" after a long day but these days you'd have to be a complete moron to fall for any of today's do called "programming"

This is drag comedy in the right way(never would mistrust Spike). Some comidians thinks they can just dress up and be funny, or "funny", or even look good. When I was young, we had a man in danish TV who made comedy for youth. One man show. He played men and women. And he didn´t even look good as either. His name was Jesper Klein, and he was the greatest danish comedian for decades. He burned out after some time.

Wonderful musicians, marvelous clowns, talent in its purest form. Doing all this work to make humans laugh, it was just awesome! To be honest, the majority of humans are not worth the investment artists make for them! Many humans are mean, bad, greedy, do not respect animals, or their planet, or other human beings, or anything for that matter ... They have little or no sensitivity, they are not very sensitive to the beauty of life. Most humans live their lives without thinking, without intelligence. Mr Spike Jones and all his wonderful friends: artists, musicians, clowns, actors without forgetting all the technicians of the show, lighting engineers, managers, and all the little hands without which nothing would be possible have offered us pure happiness. Now in 2021, I don't think we will find artists of this quality in our lifetime. Their work has been just fantastic: Staging, musicians of very, very high level, quality of the sketches, etc ... In short, a colossal work that we will certainly never see again. Thanks thanks ! and again a thousand times thank you! I do not believe in heaven, nor in paradise, and even less in all religions; Obviously it can be nice to think: "they continue, and they make people laugh after their death!" Me, I think not ... Some who "believe" think so; So 50/50. But, when in doubt, I think it is more reasonable to applaud and thank the "real artists" (I say that because there are a lot of fake ones) when they are alive! Kind regards to all of you ... PS: I'm talking about artists, but I pay the same tribute to all the doctors, researchers, engineers, nurses, teachers and of course to all the workers and artisans of all trades who make this planet more livable. For the rest, not being a believer, I say: Death to idiots! (hunters, toreadors, pedophiles, rapists, assassins, mafias, mafia, pimps, drug dealers, bandits of all kinds, white-collar crooks, corrupt politicians, etc.) Leave us alone, and let us live.

Now it's just creepy and sad. " Prisscilla Queen of the Desert " spoiled " everything. There is nothing sad or pathetic about this Spike Jones clip. They were just making fun of other people, Ina Hutton and the other " all -Girl Orchestra " leaders. His trumpeter, for example , did " John and Marsha" routines on other episodes, was mocking Bandleader/ bugler Henry Busses, not something homosexual. And so here, this parody of all- Girl bands. It was not intended as a slur on homosexual men. Well actually with his amped-up bizarre takes ( my Dad, a musician back then, said they were probably a bit drug-fueled) WHO KNOWS what Spike Jones was thinking?! LOL. He sure was a talent, though, and what a talented band! Great to see Hugh Herbert here, too, near the end of his fine career.
