This review is from: Red Skelton: America's Favorite Funnyman (Two-Disc Edition) (DVD)

For us who remember this wonderful man, what can i say but, he is still the best to watch. Slapstick is so funny,,,there is no violence or cussing or sex,,,just an exceptionally talented man who could make anyone and everyone laugh. His characters are a great work of imagination !! This is real tv and comedy at its best. Yeah its old,,,but it sure is a breath of fresh air from what is going on today. Try it,,,you will love it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as funny as I thought it would be., December 27, 2008

I know there are many, many more episodes of Red Skelton that were much funnier than the ones they put on this dvd. I was really disappointed in the ones that were selected for this package. I gave it to my dad for a gift, and watched it with him. Some of them were okay, but I know Red Skelton is hilarious, but they didn't do his show justice on this dvd package.

Even growing up in Australia when we were restricted in a lot of the early TV programs, we still yearned for the 'older' comedians, Red Skelton being one of them. Although these discs have been edited, there is still the classic comedy of the man and his guests, the spontaneous 'ad-libs' which had my family and myself crying with laughter. I recommend it to others.
