I remember reading an article as a kid in Dynamite magazine about “Stayin Alive”. They had a interview with Travolta about getting in shape for the movie and had a before and after pic showing how pudgy Travolta was before he started working out. I’ll never forget Travolta’s quote about how he got pudgy: “Cookies are very important to me”.
Funny I found this comment. I was just thinking about this today. These guys get paid to just sit around and talk like guys. Like in the old O&A days. I would not mind doing that for a living. But then again, I dont have many friends I can still talk to like this. I have a friend who got all weird and shit during the pandemic. And now he's one of those weird effeminate "put my woman up on a pedestal" kind of guy. He cant even have honest objective conversation about being a man and women and dating etc. Shit that you should be able to talk about even if you're in a relationship. But this guy is like a hardcore Beyonce fan because his girl is. And he's constantly posting on social media about how "something is wrong with men if they don't worship their woman". My fucking blood runs cold from the cringe every time he posts something about "family" or "living to make your girl happy" etc.
@@negativeindustrial yeah he watched a lot of TV and films and had an intelligent regular guy view on things with a certain sideways take that made you think or sometimes change your mind. Ant is similar in many ways and that's why the 2 of them discussing films are among the most watched O&A clips.
MANERO! Totally cannot focus on ANY work while listening to this! I am bizarrely fascinated by Staying Alive! They totally changed the Tony Manero character, took out all the fun, and left in headbands, etc.
I've never watched Staying Alive. Or Saturday Night Fever, for that matter. The only thing I know about Staying Alive is that Richie Sambora plays in it.
Lol...laughing about the Brady girl reading the newspaper in high school, but I used to read the paper in high school. Different era. We didn't have Internet, lol.
If you watch enough of the 70s series youll see they used this one neighborhood of houses in several different series. For instance youll see the Beaver Cleaver house used in the Marcus Welby MD series. One episode was quite weird as it guess starred Ward as visiting Dr.Welby's house for dinner, and he went for a nap upstairs afterwards AND DIED in his old Cleaver house!! 🤣
I saw that movie several times as a kid cause my mom loved Travolta. He was still a sex symbol to clueless women my moms age. Even now if I told her he was into men she wouldn’t believe me. Anyways it’s her fault “Far from over” is on most of my playlists.
@@mr.brenman2132 dude….please google Travolta massage. He is gay. He was scared to death it would ruin him as a “leading man” so Scientology set him up with his wife through Kirstie Alley. It was an arrangement. In the meantime he’s never been spotted with any other woman even after his wife died BUT he’s been busted with countless men for decades. Long time “companions”. It’s not a secret in Hollywood. Same with Will Smith. Why do you think he has to act overly aggressive when anyone questionins his wife meanwhile she’s outed him on her show as being a cuck and he can’t say boo about it. Google his name and “gay”. You’ll see his ex wife has had a strict contract gag order where she’s not allowed to speak on ANY terms of their short marriage and she still gets money from will even though they didn’t have kids. She knows the truth. Scientology has the goods on these men but the rumors and dudes speaking out with lie detector tests and all that have been going on for ages.
Just got out of a Kingface loop on youtube. I'd love to see him on the show, but I don't know if he'd agree to the show if he did his homework on the "character" Ant played on O&A, lol.
It's part of the Trinity of cheesy (and extremely gay,) late '70s/early '80s Broadway-focused films: A Chorus Line, All That Jazz & Stayin' Alive! Lol.
I’m a kid of the 80s & and love all 80s & 70s movies and even older I’ve seen most I’m also an expert on hard rock & metal & pop culture but I’ve not seen staying alive…
One of first few times smokin pot a few of us got high one night and ended up on my buddy's couch scrolling through channels and Saturday Night Fever just started so we decide to watch it, nobody had seen it before (it was around 2002) . I don't think I've ever laughed so hard and for so long in my life. Its sooo over dramatic, its like its the spoof of some other film about the same thing.
Yeah I remember watching it on cable circa 1995 with my sister one afternoon when nothing was on. Couldn't believe how cheesy and gay it was and that it was a sequel to SNF.
Jay has excellent TV references that's why I'm so surprised he doesn't remember that 'MANNIX' premiered 2 YRS BEFORE 'THE BRADY BUNCH. 'Mannix' dropped in Sept. of 1967 and T.B.B., likewise Sept. only it was 1969. I remember seeing it a few yrs ago in an episode of 'Mission Impossible'. One should remember that 'The Brady Bunch' was NOT ''iconic" in the '60s or '70s. It wasn't till much later that this show rose 'Above its atation'.
I agree. In fairness to Dave, though, in this particular instance, he did see both Saturday Night Fever and Stayin’ Alive, and some of his jokes in this video, particularly about Stayin’ Alive, are pretty funny and on point.
That’s the only problem with Dave being Ant’s sidekick. Ant has 20 years on Dave and Ant is the king of 60s, 70s, & 80s references and impressions which Dave wasn’t even born yet to know these pop references well enough to be able to “riff” with Ant on, like lil Yimmy was always able to do on O & A.
Travolta in the best shape of his life an does the best Manero nothing wrong with this movie especially watching these hot woman dancing. Travolta looks hot too. It's ok to like attractive men guys it's ok hahaha it won't make you gay.
12:37 Mannix was filmed at Desilu Studios & I guess they were invested in production as well. Lucy suggested the change from Mannix being a computer nerd tied to a HUGE TECH Agency - and the character be the gum shoe type who did his own investigation & the HARD KNOCKS detective that we can thank her for seeing that poor man get CLOCKED the fuk OUT in every episode in the second incarnation of the show. Regardless if she had an ax to grind with Desi perhaps- it sure BEAT the original premise. And yes, the theme song is excellent as we're so many others of the era!! Mike Connors was a gifted athlete in more than one sport, Armenian & from a tough background in real life & had strong moral standards & did his own stunts whenever possible as well. No slouch & no scandals. Something rather rare the among Hollywood lot I'd say.
I preferred when Ant started out the Compound. It was just him making fun of internet stuff and he could still do impressions then. Stopped subscribing after Gavin left, it wasn't worth it any more.
@Jade Runner I cancelled my subscription... You think I should delete a free youtube subscription? Its not that bad but its not worth paying for, even though I still enjoy Ant on his own.
"you guessed it, frank stallone."

Robert Reed being ticked off about The Godfather filming next door while he’s stuck filming “Greg Gets Caught Smoking” is gold.
Robert Reed played a trans woman in an episode from Medical Center 1975.

This movie needed the hit song from the 80's "DARA".
Haha 😂 Nice call-back

@Forrest Trump and "endless days turn into sleepless nights"

Lol. Ant's Travolta impression is hilarious.
These are my favorite eps of TACS…just listening to Ant talk about old tv shows/movies and commercials.
Same.
I forgot that Saturday Night Fever had a sequel. Now I have to go and get drunk.
You'll be in the right state of mind to enjoy it.
I watched Mannix this morning on MeTV. Love it. He gets knocked out every episode.
Just watched it a few weeks ago. It’s a great show.
I love the pilot episode cause the chick that "kidnapped" herself is so fuckable
I love the old TV shows. Dragnet is my personal favorite.
Love MeTV watch Cannon all the time
"That homo slow-mo"
Ok, never heard that one before. 😂
This movie should have been called Staying Awake. Cause that's what I was trying to do when I watched it
SlayKnotV1 wait. Read his comment again.
Woah...

Scott M Dynamite Magazine...man....
Was Tiger Beat not available?
I dont know why this comment is so funny to me. Its crazy the weird little things that we retain from childhood without trying.
Ant's impression is spot on!
That was absolutely class commentary impressions on staying alive. Crying laughing at that.
Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) was watching MANNIX in his trailer after he fed his dog, in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
Studios reuse sets all the time in those days. The Chicago gangster episode of Star Trek was shot on the Mayberry set.
According to Jim and Boy Meets World have the same set
In the last episode of Mannix John Ritter was in it and they didnt even try to hide the "Brady Bunch" living room set
In all honesty, i find Frank Stallone tunes to be super pump ups.
"I am down but I am far from over."
You guessed it.....FRANK STALLONE
The mans got pipes!
This is like hanging out, speaking normally with other guys, talking shit, being funny, gloves off. I sure miss that. Oh well....back to Woketardia.
Eff that - never surrender, my friend.

I love hearing insider information from people that work in Hollywood. It's so fascinating to me.
I Love TMZ
After 16 minutes ranking on how gay the movie was. Dave: "I like Broadway Shows." 🤣
I been using that bisexual joke for years! It gets a laugh every time
No it doesn't.
Anthony has clearly watched that (hilarious) "Rocky III gayer than brokeback" youtube video and forgotten about it haha
Mannix! I loved those 70's cop shows, Quinn Martin and all.
Patrice would have been incredible here
He had so many layers. You’d never guess he’s even seen some of the movies he could quote line for line.

This video is Golden, all these guys are great.
Frank Stallone did the soundtrack.
Lolol yup, he got like 13 songs in it.
And by pretty wild circumstances, Travolta somehow pissed off the BeeGees and Frank was shopping songs
I should’ve guessed it.... Frank Stallone.
@@jppennypincher9051 But we know one thing, GERMANS LOVE DAVID HASSELHOFF!

Do you know who did the soundtrack
You guessed it Frank Stallone

I only know this movie from a Mad Magazine parody.
This is awesome and hilarious.
I've never watched Staying Alive. Or Saturday Night Fever, for that matter.
The only thing I know about Staying Alive is that Richie Sambora plays in it.
Omg his Travolta impression
Frank Stallone tells the story of the soundtrack on "norms rare guitar channel"
Frank is the highight of Norm's
@Thomas Henesey norms rare guitars is where everyone buys guitars....
@Thomas Henesey if you played guitar you would watch norms channel everyday
@Thomas Henesey watch guitar of the day
Thomas Henesey Michael Lemmo (who does guitar of the day) is one of the most inspiring musicians I’ve ever heard. It’s all around great content.
Ant is doing a show with the plague, I'm filled with respect and pity.
Funny thing, Saturday night fever is based on the Mod culture from England in the 60s. Its an interesting backstory
Linda Evans does look like Caren Kaye in that episode. Both Stunners.
This commnentary is gold ...lol
Mike Connors, back in the early days of his career, used to go by the professional name, "Touch Connors".
Mannix house and the Brady bunch house are the same! That's probably why they had so much intertwining.
Lol...laughing about the Brady girl reading the newspaper in high school, but I used to read the paper in high school. Different era. We didn't have Internet, lol.
Please, for the love of GOD! The TOAST!
My son and i thought it would be funny to watch this movie. We couldn't make it past 8 minutes. Worst thing I've ever seen.
Imma watch it imma watch all
Sounds painful but I'm up for the challenge
Dave juskow looks like the only man a caricature couldnt illustrate humorously
If you watch enough of the 70s series youll see they used this one neighborhood of houses in several different series. For instance youll see the Beaver Cleaver house used in the Marcus Welby MD series. One episode was quite weird as it guess starred Ward as visiting Dr.Welby's house for dinner, and he went for a nap upstairs afterwards AND DIED in his old Cleaver house!! 🤣
Wow. That is bizarre. I didn't know that.
Stallone wrote Rocky, he didn't direct it.
This is great. lol
I thought it was just a dancing movie cause I saw Short Circuit and Johnny 5 was learning to dance watching it

I love that song! 🤣
I have watched this movie more than Saturday night fever
It's part of the Trinity of cheesy (and extremely gay,) late '70s/early '80s Broadway-focused films: A Chorus Line, All That Jazz & Stayin' Alive! Lol.
What got me was seeing a very young and balding Ed Harris in the Rockford Files
Ed Harris was balding in 4th grade
I’m a kid of the 80s & and love all 80s & 70s movies and even older I’ve seen most I’m also an expert on hard rock & metal & pop culture but I’ve not seen staying alive…
The norm ep with sly on snl was fkn halarious
I guess Anthony had Dave's, Don't talk light on.
Sorry but strut at the end is everything. That's the only part that's equal to Saturday Night Fever, which I agree is great.
If you got gay out of Saturday night fever you may be celebrating pride month .

Also brain and liver.

nighthawks is really good and it has music from emerson from emerson,lake and palmer
I remember that Stallone SNL skit. Norm was a beast.
nic cage
Incredible job Travolta did by acting not gay.
Sly's directorial debut was "Staying Alive," right? He didn't direct the original Rocky... it was John Avildsen.
@Gary Louis Oh yeah, Paradise Alley. I kind of like that one.
I saw that on WHT
I had WHT because we couldn't get cable where I lived in the 70s. I didn't think anyone remembered that.
Holy shit, thought I was the only one that remembered that. Saw the first Mad Max on there too.
REMEMBERING how to FORGET!...
I saw Staylng Alive when I was a teenager & it was terrible. What a waste of money!
Dave always seems so lost when something interesting is going on that takes place before 1988 lol
I agree. In fairness to Dave, though, in this particular instance, he did see both Saturday Night Fever and Stayin’ Alive, and some of his jokes in this video, particularly about Stayin’ Alive, are pretty funny and on point.

Never heard of Mannix
Please have the tosst!
Does Ant have throat cancer ? What’s the deal with Mr Cumia’s voice for the last two months?
I think it was bronchitis
Well you can tell...
Ant is the last noble Carthaginian.
The Brady house and mannox house are the same set
that guy sounds like Bill maher
Can you dig it i knew that you could.
This is funny but I like the movie.
the soundtrack by Frank Stallone makes thst movie unwatchable
