Movie Description Dan Rowan and Dick Martin produced an innovative strain of TV comedy in the late 1960s with their LAUGH-IN shows, encapsulated in BEST OF ROWAN & MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN. This three-disc box set contains six hour-long comic romps, spanning the years 1968-1970, which marked the era with a quirky brand of universal comedy and attracted an unshakeable audience. The laughs kept coming in a relentless fury, compliments of cast members Lily Tomlin, Goldie Hawn, Henry Gibson, Gary Owens, Alan Suhs, JoAnne Worley, Arte Johnson, and many more. In addition, hosts Rowan and Martin invited a wide variety of eclectic guests to appear, such as Cher, John Wayne, Joey Bishop, Jack Lemmon, Bob Hope, Sammy Davis Jr., and Richard Nixon, all of whose presence lends these shows a strong period flavor.
Film Notes DVD Features:
Region 1 Boxed Set Full Frame - 1.33 Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - English Additional Release Material: Production Interview - 1. Gary Owens, Ruth Buzzi, Arte Johnson
The show was never intended to become a weekly series, but after the resounding success of its premiere special, which aired on September 9, 1967, it catapulted itself into a prime time weeknight slot.
In addition to Rowan & Martin, the only other cast members to last throughout the show's lifetime were Ruth Buzzi and Gary Owens.
