Dean Martin could hardly keep a straight face every time I watch him with Foster . He was really great at doing this act . A true great . Thank you Mr Brooks
A Master's class on acting intoxicated while you're stone cold sober...and also in how to deliver clean and meaningful humor that remains timeless even now.
Too many people today are just looking for something to be offended about. I'd hate to go life like that. Whoever told them that life was going to be perfect??? Loosen up people and find humor in life's lessons.
Not one swear word at all not one, pure comedy gold It's the moment Foster pops up and Dean notices his teeth are missing and instantly breaks up to pieces with laughter it's just great. And the great thing is Dean bad no idea it was going to happen
Needless to say Foster Brooks was a genius. An absolute one of a kind talent I had the privilege of seeing perform. Martin, Sinatra, Charlie Callas, Bob Hope, Johnathan Winters, Johnny Carson, George Gobel Etc..., Comedy is just not the same without them.
I Love all Foster Brooks's work! Love it! .Both of them geniuses, and with help of Dean: "What seem's to be the trouble? .. < I'm pregnant!> " .. I was all over the floor laughing with tears! .. No way! .. And grand finale: "to a weenie roast!" .. Superb! ..Not in this days such comedians!
That's the First time I've seen Mr.Brooks get cracked up during a skit.Mr.Martin delivered a solid laugh line and I laughed even harder when Foster couldn't hold it.Loved the teamwork.
He did struggle with alcoholism prior to. He then quit drinking and based his act on his struggle with alcoholism. But yes he never drank but could play a damn good drunk
Compare to Tim Conway, who was a hoot, I don't think his sidekick Harvey Korman couldn't compose himself much longer if he was paired up with Foster Brooks
I love these two!!! And the Dean Martin roasts. Looks like they had so much fun back then Foster Brooks is hilarious. They are funny as hell!! Always makes me laugh I have a lot of the DVD's from the Dean Martin's roast never gets old makes me happy every time I watch. 💙💙
It is obvious by the expression on Deans face that he had no prior knowledge that Foster was going to perform the sketch without his dentures. Than made it that much funnier
Dean signed a massive contract that allowed him to not be required to go to rehearsals. He preferred to golf during the week and show up for filming. He would practice his lines at home and it allowed for all of these impromptu things to happen hilariously during taping
I grew up watching Foster Brooks Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. Another favorite of mine was Red Skelton and Don Rickles. I loved watching Dean Martin's Roast as well.
When times were fun, love these and the roasts they did. What made them so enjoyable was Dean genuinely laughing, which made them so real, rather than the fake canned laughter from shows now a days. RIP to these lost stars and others like Don Rickles, Nipsey and the fabulous Jonathon Winters.
Don't forget Tim Conway & Harvey Corman together... Especially the famous (ad-lib by Tim) "Dentist" skit with Harvey, where he (Harvey) actually "pi**ed" his pants from trying to hold in his laughter.... verified years later to be true, in an interview Carol Burnette. Absolutely Hilarious!!
We will never see this kind of comedy again. Foster and Dean were so funny and no swearing needed. Foster was Dean's favorite guy on the roasts. Because he was the funniest of them all.
Most drunk acts play it as a sober man pretending to be drunk Richard. The best though, play it as a drunk pretending to be sober. Tha`s why Foster Brooks was so good at what he did.
If i had done this scene instead of Dean Martin and when Foster Brooks says "What seems to be the trouble"" I would've lost it...I would've just started laughing. The chemistry between these legends is untouchable in any era of this world. The chemistry between them is so strong that they could've been brothers in real life. This is real comedy...The comedy stand ups today is just a cry for help.....
Foster Brooks is a genius, identical clone of my binge-drunk grandpa! I feel like I'm seeing his ghost in every way, shape and mannerism. Brooks was such a legend, the fact that Dean Martin couldn't keep a straight face and kept busting up laughing somehow makes it all the funnier!
I probably only seen a fraction of the skits performed by Foster Brooks, but I believe this is the first time I've heard him speak with this particular comedy voice. So funny!
Ya just don't see 'em like this anymore. How beautiful they were in their prime, and afterword too. Laugh out loud type of humor - don't see that much anymore.
Henri Scamardo I agree everything back then was straight up comedy no Justin Bieber no Britney Spears or Lady Gaga spreading their legs open to get a lot of views and ratings just talented actors and comedians and they could tell a joke without you know lot of profanity and you still going to laugh anyway good quality clean fun for the whole family
0:26 look how amazed Dean Martin is when he notice that foster Brooks skipped his dentures. And you clearly see him pointing at his teeth while looking at the director. But amazing Job to still go on acting.
Apparently Dean Martin was known for not liking to rehearse. It looks as though Foster Brooks took advantage of this by playing the role without his dentures, which definitely caught Dean by surprise.😂 And boy was he surprised!
2 GREAT ENTERTAINERS...LOVE THIS...I LAUGHED OUT LOUD...THANKS DEAN AND FOSTER...THE DENTIST ONE ALSO HAD ME IN "STITCHES"...LOVE FROM AUSTRALIA...🐨🐨😀😘🐨🐨
Maybe that's their problem. Maybe it's a jealousy thing because they know they're not anywhere near as good as the old guys and instead of modeling after the old guys and becoming hilariously successful like Jim Carry did, they wanna use their talent (if they have any) to hurt people.
Recently heard an interview of Wayne Newton who said Dean refused to rehearse for his show. Probably why he is caught off guard by Brook’s comments and antics.
And I think Foster KNEW he shocked Dean. It looks as though they had to edit the end of that intro, before they cut to a closeup of Foster asking "what seems to be the trouble"
+DeansPalley or he had in a fake plate that looks like gums that went over his real teeth ...look at his bottom teeth here they look bad one missing ..in real life he had all his top and bottom teeth ..this was fake ..they made him look like that
+feck off I don't think he had a false plate over upper teeth. If you see the look on his face when he first pops up from the bar, he's able to close his mouth in a way that only someone without upper teeth can. I think they were going for the Gabby Hayes look.
I saw Foster Brooks for the first time in Las Vegas. He was the opening act to Robert Goulet. He was genuinely funny ... a wonderful entree to the main course.
These guys are legends and irreplaceable.
Yes they are legends, and they are irreplaceable.
Dean Martin could hardly keep a straight face every time I watch him with Foster . He was really great at doing this act . A true great . Thank you Mr Brooks

Hi Cynthia
Agreed !!!

Brilliant I'm pregnant 🤣🤣🤣

I miss clean and funny shows like this , classic and beautiful
Comedy Skeches like this will never fly today this is funny as hell thank God for UA-cam R.I.P to both Dean Martin and Foster Brooks.
Too many people today are just looking for something to be offended about. I'd hate to go life like that. Whoever told them that life was going to be perfect??? Loosen up people and find humor in life's lessons.
I don't know what's funnier, the drunk doctor or Deans expression and trying to hold in the laughter. Pure comedy gold.
Love them both. Dean is so funny how he can't help but laugh when he's supposed to be serious. As for Foster Brooks...pure genius.
Dean is just bad and lazy
You can't get any better than this. Both were GREAT. TODAY the kids don't know how to enjoy this.
Dean Martin, the coolest and smoothest guy we will ever see …
Life was a lot better back then for sure
As I a kid Dean Martin made me laugh growing up, and still making me laugh today. One of the best from the past.
Nobody plays a better drunk than the great FOSTER BROOKS. R.I.P to both DEAN & FOSTER!
Not one swear word at all not one, pure comedy gold
It's the moment Foster pops up and Dean notices his teeth are missing and instantly breaks up to pieces with laughter it's just great. And the great thing is Dean bad no idea it was going to happen
Soo true. Class act in those days.
I know. I want those times back.
The skill was , they didn't say it, but you were thinking it.
Best comedy , with no cursing it's the best!!
Needless to say Foster Brooks was a genius. An absolute one of a kind talent I had the privilege of seeing perform. Martin, Sinatra, Charlie Callas, Bob Hope, Johnathan Winters, Johnny Carson, George Gobel Etc..., Comedy is just not the same without them.
rjodhan1rr44 Don't forget Red Skelton! Man of many talents.

Let’s not leave Jack Benny and George Burns and Dangerfield and Jackie Gleason out of that mix!
@@johncarroll7736 My favorite "All Class"
Gentlemen and Ladies this is what comedy needs to return to, the silly, sometimes racy and always hilarious antics of our beloved comics.
It's when Dean starts singing and then Foster's dancing that gets me everytime! Haha Funniest thing I have ever seen!
This is one of the best-written skits I've seen on this show. Every line sparkled.
it looks like some of the lines were adlibbed because even Foster almost loses it a couple of times.
Ah, the good old days. I remember my parents and I laughing like crazy over these. ♥♥♥
comedy that the whole family can love
I Love all Foster Brooks's work! Love it! .Both of them geniuses, and with help of Dean: "What seem's to be the trouble? .. < I'm pregnant!> " .. I was all over the floor laughing with tears! .. No way! .. And grand finale: "to a weenie roast!" .. Superb! ..Not in this days such comedians!

CLASSIC. if only we could bring back this quality of humor.
Well you can’t.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like bananas.
Foster never drank and he played a drunk better than anyone. Miss Dean and all the good clean shows. Glad I grew up when I did.
He did struggle with alcoholism prior to. He then quit drinking and based his act on his struggle with alcoholism. But yes he never drank but could play a damn good drunk
@@chadhanna8267 Foster made so many people laugh and was unbelievable funny. Didn't know about his prior problem. RIP
Hi Mary
Great post, this was the golden era of comedy TV.
I really enjoy them, they were very good and never use vulgarities!
Cristina Gonzalez Lopez I agree you could be funny without being vulgar and still make a good living at it being a comedian
What great comedy.miss those days..nothing on tv anymore
Yeah, they were vegetarians!!!!
@@debowiec3 what?
@@brandanvujic5794 We have to think "creatively"...........
Im just watching this now . Pure Class . I gave it the Thumbs up before watching this . A Very BIG THANKS .
Foster Brooks ranks right up there with Tim conway.forgot how hysterical he was.the perfect drunk
Compare to Tim Conway, who was a hoot, I don't think his sidekick Harvey Korman couldn't compose himself much longer if he was paired up with Foster Brooks
Everyone thinks it’s easy to act drunk, but it really really isn’t!
Best I've seen.
Keith Jones and he didn’t even drink
Red Skelton was pretty great too
I love these two!!! And the Dean Martin roasts. Looks like they had so much fun back then Foster Brooks is hilarious. They are funny as hell!! Always makes me laugh I have a lot of the DVD's from the Dean Martin's roast never gets old makes me happy every time I watch. 💙💙
Agree. It's a shame there are no roasts anymore.
LOVE everything that Dean Martin was in!!
"Don't you see my wound?"
"No, it's got an arrow sticking in it."
LMAO
Omg these were the greatest times best comedians in this era clean jokes. Luv it
Best comedy evwr. Foster Brooks was an absolute comedic genius.
Fantastic... what fun we had, growing up ! Great memories ..
It is obvious by the expression on Deans face that he had no prior knowledge that Foster was going to perform the sketch without his dentures. Than made it that much funnier
Agreed. He even points to his own teeth, then to Foster, to someone off screen (I'm guessing the floor director).
I wonder, did Dean know if Foster had dentures in the first place? It looked like he didn't... But this is funnyyyYYYY!
Dean signed a massive contract that allowed him to not be required to go to rehearsals. He preferred to golf during the week and show up for filming. He would practice his lines at home and it allowed for all of these impromptu things to happen hilariously during taping
I know right
@@johncronin9540 yes Dean points to his own teeth but he doesn't point to foster

Richard Cosmillo
He may have been Dean's favorite, but Don Rickles is the Roast King.
Just so you know, that is not Foster Brooks.
I just watched a Foster Brooks impersonator, here on Utube, before watching this. THAT was definitely Foster Brooks!
Classic Foster Brooks! Dean couldn’t contain himself.
If i had done this scene instead of Dean Martin and when Foster Brooks says "What seems to be the trouble"" I would've lost it...I would've just started laughing.

"....no you ain't, it's right there all over the floor!"
LMAO!!!!
What a great line
I love it when they are so funny that they can't even keep a straight face!
Dean Martin to me is the ultimate entertainer can sing good comedian and good actor the best

Really good honest comedy
No swearing required
Love them guys
"What seems to be the trouble?"
"I'm pregnant."
Lol!

Hello how are you doing my friend
Dean was the king of cool but couldn't keep it together when he was teamed with Foster. Absolutely hilarious
Best clean comedy, I remember those days...
I probably only seen a fraction of the skits performed by Foster Brooks, but I believe this is the first time I've heard him speak with this particular comedy voice. So funny!
Love the silliness - wonderful stuff
THIS JUST CRACKS ME UP, EVERY TIME I SEE IT. NO ONE, CAN DO THIS KIND OF COMEDY. LOVE ❤️ IT. R I P BOTH OF YOU
Hi Mary
Foster Brooks was a one of a kind.Funniest routines when he gets going , a comic genius.
Ya just don't see 'em like this anymore. How beautiful they were in their prime, and afterword too. Laugh out loud type of humor - don't see that much anymore.
0:32, Dean can't even keep it together just by looking at Foster's face. LOL. These two are legends.
Michael Tardi
They loved working with each other, that's what really makes this bit shine, in my humble opining.
Foster Brooks was the funniest drunk...love this!
I remember seeing this as a kid. We were rolling. Good memories!
If you wont tear up laughing watching this, you cant convince me that youre human
What can I say ! - Those were days you could see and hear some great comedy! Thumbs Up!
Such great comedy back then. No PC BS just great fun. Sad how far we have fallen since then.
Henri Scamardo this brings back memories
Henri Scamardo I agree everything back then was straight up comedy no Justin Bieber no Britney Spears or Lady Gaga spreading their legs open to get a lot of views and ratings just talented actors and comedians and they could tell a joke without you know lot of profanity and you still going to laugh anyway good quality clean fun for the whole family

Hi Catherine
Foster Brooks is one of the best ever.
Why aren’t there good shows like this anymore? Tv today is garbage.
Garbage with either a filthy conversation or kids disrespecting the parents and showing kids how to do it.
Becuse someone will either hijack a show for thier Cause, or get Offended to push thier Cause.
wow haven't seen this in decades, I forgot about Brooks.
2 funny
You know the current culture SUCKS
when you have to travel back in time to laugh at life.
Maybe that's their problem. Maybe it's a jealousy thing because they know they're not anywhere near as good as the old guys and instead of modeling after the old guys and becoming hilariously successful like Jim Carry did, they wanna use their talent (if they have any) to hurt people.
that is so true
Comedy at its best! Wish these were on Tv.
hadn't seen this before, thanx for posting

This has to be some of Foster's best work. And in the Roasts ... he's pretty Damn funny! Darn, sorry.
Hilarious! Thanks for posting this.

They never fail to crease me up!!!

0:28 Dean’s expression, pure gold.
The "MODERN DAY comedians" Have nothing on Foster Brooks!
those guys are best humor ever clean clean!!!!
I love how Dean's trying not to laugh.
I think Dean was surprised by Foster's lack of teeth. He's not only surprised, and trying not to laugh, he's also pointing to someone off camera.
I'll bet Dean Martin was thinking, "I'm so glad I pee'd before this sketch!"
And I think Foster KNEW he shocked Dean. It looks as though they had to edit the end of that intro, before they cut to a closeup of Foster asking "what seems to be the trouble"
John Cronin y
Yeah, right.
@@geraldmoeller2949 because at the very beginning they were both laughing
Yes yes yes LMFAOO
Considering the sketch.....I'll get right to the point!! Foster ain't wearing his teeth in this sketch. Thanks for posting!!

John Cronin it's his teeth. he's using tooth black gum.
This is the highpoint of comedy in the history of mankind
I love Dean and Foster !
When Foster shows up from behind the counter and Dean notices he removed his dentures 😂
they don't make comedy like this anymore I wish they did
1burnman I miss them days it was truly television finest hour a good clean quality family entertainment
Reminds me of when I did Commedia Del Arte in college theatre.
I gree!
they would,t put anything like this on Tv anymore theirs too many pc sad people now a days they must have a sad dull life..
Yep
His sneeze w.Dusty Towel is Great!!!!!!!
Martin never rehearsed these sketches which explains his surprise when he first sees Brooks lol.
I think Dean was laughing right from the start. "I need .. ha..ha..Oooo...I need help.." xD
I saw Foster Brooks for the first time in Las Vegas. He was the opening act to Robert Goulet. He was genuinely funny ... a wonderful entree to the main course.
Dock, I got a arrow thru my chest. Well you can always dress like a chicken & be a weather vain. Pure gold.

That one had me laughing in my chair, it came out if nowhere.
Doc I got an arrow. Be a weather vane. What state are y all from
Foster Brooks is that good at playing a drunk in these videos, I'm starting to think he wasn't acting lol, absolute genius
These were the good old days.
Priceless!
This was when tv was worth watching.
The funniest guy playing a drunk I’ve ever seen! 😂
Lol.....THAT was the FIRST TIME that I saw FOSTER BROOKS LAUGH !!!!
Foster Brooks and Mr. Lahey the two best drunks in tv history.
