Just WOW! A pleasure to see clean entertainment free of any political or foul language. Great sketches and comedy. We’ve really messed up in todays culture.
I’d consider myself, (no pun intended) a young person, and I’m so glad that I did an Oliver performance as my first one, because without that I would have never been the person I am today, a nerdy Oliver and Musical fan!
Tuesday nights and Red Skelton were a staple in our house. Saturday nights and Hollywood Palace and The Jackie Gleason Show were also favorites. And, of course, Sundays with Ed Sullivan. In an era when most families were "intact" and sat down to watch quality entertainment together. Sad what passes for "entertainment" today...
You're absolutely right now Tell this today's young people 30 and under and see the response you get, I guarantee it won't be nice because many don't give a damn about the past, weren't brought up with this type of culture or past entertainment. What's worse is they don't want to know about, learn about or even see these shows from back then, Go Figure! It's a real shame and I'm extremely disturbed by it!
Y'know in my opinion, they should've brought Mark Lester in as Oliver one more time for this show but for some reason Red Skelton as Oliver just makes it more funny. (possibly because he's always playing the lead characters without letting anyone else took his part)
Their could easily be a Network consisting of only retro TV Series with original commercials IF those were of high quality - makes perfect sense to me. The demand would be of such a high consistency it would work. If I had the money 💴 I’d invest in select Tv shows - no 🦃
The great thing about Red was that he had fun with the bad jokes. If one bombed he would reference it throughout the show so that by the end he had milked laughs out of a really lousy joke. All the while the audience was having fun. I miss that style of good-natured humor.
@@thebrinx9632Not only Red Skelton but Jack Wild was a fantastic entertainer and many younger people today don't even know who these were, nor do they care either!!!!!
@@scottmiller6495 I guess I would write off any "thumbs downs" as trolls etc. Even if you didn't like the sketch (or the actors for what ever reason), You'd have to see what the intent of the writes/performers was. I any event, I certainly enjoyed the work and thank you to ua-cam.com/channels/3_-0vSVqTG_ApkSolabWag.html for posting these wonderful episodes. I find them (along with many other shows from years back) to be a nice break from the the reality that is today.
24:00 those kinds of songs don’t go over with U.S. audiences. They never have. We don’t understand the rural English humor and the accents sung so fast make them difficult to understand. Americans do not have the Artful Dodger as a folk cultural figure. We have say, Huck Finn. So when he’s picking the pockets most Americans wonder why he’s stealing from people.
If your one of today's young people who are 35 and under I excuse you, but if you're much older and remember this great show and how wonderful Jack Wild was, I'll never understand this comment!
Back in the day anyone who could afford a bespoke tux and read a cue card with a silly face dumb expression got a tv show...what a clux ..this guy stunk so bad can still smell him get outta here i outta !
Play me 90s R&B did the Titans Play me R&B did the Titans R&B those are generations I’m not a company or something Set a record label for There’s a song about the Titans. Embryos Titans oh me. JERRY I don’t know anything You’re not communicating with the title No. Oh I am communicating with the Titan . I’m trying
This is where dodger (jack wild) got his part for top movie Oliver Twist that landed jack an Oscar along with Ron moody I don’t understand how it went bad for jack wild his Health died in bad way 😢💫❤️🩹
@@garycarpenter2980 I adored Puffnstuff. Jack had me at witchie Poo pulling up the screen in the beginning and the song "If I could starting". I still stop by youtube to watch it every year to two years or so, and simply to feel everything I felt when I first watched it, all over again. Jack simply gave me HOPE as a child watching him, I don't know how he did it. But this time around, his passing has hit me harder than having heard about it in the past. I think what happened to him is what happened to a lot of stars in that era i.e the world was changing extremely fast and the old world charm of musicals and clean entertainment (that had started in the 20s and 30s), was coming to an end and I think Jack was lucky enough to catch the last wind of it. The world around him was changing rapidly and after Puffnstuff, there just weren't going to be singing, and musical roles. Not that Jack wasn't prepared to do something "serious" (as he himself as said), but those of his era had already been type cast as "old school" and yesteryear, and were cast aside. The 60's quickly gave way to the 'new' and 'modern' 70s, which again was caste aside to give way to even more modern movie making of the 80's and those like Jack with this nice, clean charm just weren't seen as commercially saleable anymore. It's cruel, but I think Jack didn't understand what was going on, and maybe took it hard, which fueled his addiction to want to mainly stay intoxicated during the cruel 80's, that was until he realized that he really didn't have to, and tried to find a way out of it. I think the key, if he had had good mentorship, would have been to tell him to put his creative talents into things beyond acting, such as film writing, direction and production, and when you're your own boss, no one can shut you out. To internalize it, as I believe he did, was obviously detrimental. Mark Lester's career too went dry, but he quickly shifted hears and went into martial arts and then started a sports injury clinic. Jack should've done the same, alas he just didn't have good mentorship around him and was kind of 'left on his own'. Even so, he still managed to sober and live life in the best way he knew how, which was to continue to get bit parts in theater. God bless him. I'm glad he found love in life, completed his memoirs and has a legion of loyal fans who love him for so much of his early work. That's more a recognition that many of us can hope to achieve in our lifetimes, not to mention, to have been nominated for an Oscar at 16 (that many said he should've won), wow, just wow. If all this is taken into consideration, perhaps its not so important how the story ends, considering that everyone has to go someday. Jack truly achieved much more than many who went onto acquire more 'money' and more 'fame'. Love you Jack, always and forever my friend.
@@maxim1-h4eWhat a wonderful comment on my favorite child actor of all time. I mentioned on another U Tube site a very wonderful fascinating true story about my phone conversation with Jack in 1970 when I was 14. I had people from all over the world showing glowing interest in my story. He wanted to meet me for real after I spoke to him it was beyond incredible. He also knew who I was from the many letters I sent him to his home in England which I got from a source and sent me a personally autographed picture of himself in his own writing, to this day it's still unbelievable!
Red Skelton was a Brilliant Entertainer and his shows from back then were so good!!!!!
Jack Wild was very underrated as an actor, he was talented and funny too. RIP sweet prince.
OMG FR
It's a shame his health went downhill later on . :(
Just WOW! A pleasure to see clean entertainment free of any political or foul language. Great sketches and comedy. We’ve really messed up in todays culture.
I couldn't agree with you more he was such a funny fellow..... one of a kind
I love the old TV shows with Red Skeleton. Ronald from Melbourne FL .
I grew up on this show I remember watching this one when I was 10. The last o e bought tears to my eyes
God Bless you Red, in Heaven. You brought me many smiles and joyful laughter.
Well his terrible jokes killed alotta peeps
@@johnjames945 why don't you do some reaerch on him before you judge.
@@stevengriffith436 watching his show was my research and it stunk
@@johnjames945 well this interview with him probably won't change your mind he is around 80 years old here

Thank you Red. Growing up with you as a young boy was a real treat. Good night, And may God bless.
RIP Dodger
Awesome program ❤

You can say that again.... today's entertainment is trash 🗑️

He was a classic man and very funny
One of a kind
The Martian Santa..in the opening blackout was performed by my friend and fellow performer:Billy Barty.
Billy Barty is a legend ❤
I loved him I've seen just about everything he's done RIP
Brilliant find 👍
Love these comic genisus
Awesome. Thank !
Christmas when I was 6. 😌
I can’t list of doing production like that on TV guys didn’t give them access to the computer
HA! I had a camera like that! I remember the flash cubes! And my best friend had a ballerina doll just like the one shown!!
Jack Wild First Appearence: 2:04
Love this mam
That’s why he said that’s why he says I brought you into this world and I can take you out
Is that Billy Barty as the space elf going down the chimney?
Y'know in my opinion, they should've brought Mark Lester in as Oliver one more time for this show but for some reason Red Skelton as Oliver just makes it more funny. (possibly because he's always playing the lead characters without letting anyone else took his part)
Did they do a computer generated TV series anymore
I love the hours for the creator
Their could easily be a Network consisting of only retro TV Series with original commercials IF those were of high quality - makes perfect sense to me. The demand would be of such a high consistency it would work. If I had the money 💴 I’d invest in select Tv shows - no 🦃
Great idea for people 55 and older who miss these days and shows of class and quality and superb family entertainment!!!!!
That Dean Martin doll also drinks, smokes,sings and tell jokes..prior to his falling down.
Got that Luke
Red was a natural comic but OMG his warm-up gags were atrocious. Great to see Jack Wild in his prime.
The great thing about Red was that he had fun with the bad jokes. If one bombed he would reference it throughout the show so that by the end he had milked laughs out of a really lousy joke. All the while the audience was having fun. I miss that style of good-natured humor.
@@gregginlahabra3112 Fair comment.Thanks.

I bet ya the Cosby show is computer-generated
From 39:49 to 39:59 Sound effect delay alert!
