  • Homelife is certainly unpretentious, humble, and very informal at the ramshackle home of Ernest's great uncle, Lloyd Worrell.
    Lloyd, aunt Ruth, and Ernest's eight year old cousin Mistake share a meal with pretend food, followed by Lloyd's reading a bedtime story from the "Big Book" before Mistake "rocks" his own father to sleep.
    This comedy short should be followed by a healthy meal, toothpaste and Jeopardy.
    Starring Jim Varney

    Jim Varney was, hands down, a comic genius! He deserves much more credit for his contributions to modern comedy than he has received over the years. Thank you for this clip. I have not seen it in a long time.

I had heard that Jim was kind hard to work with on camera..but he just seems like a good hearted guy and wish I had the privilage to meet him, while he was still here. RIP Jim..you made many laughs in my childhood...and still do.

  • @GrunkyMcSaucy
    @GrunkyMcSaucy 8 днів тому

    A testament to how good this skit is, is that each person here has a different line or gag that gets them every time. Mine is when he says "I'm gonna get in there and make sure that boy is pretending to brush his teeth." Also, I've seen academy award winning movies that have three hour run times and no camera work that compares to that beautiful table flip.

    I used to do this whole skit for my grandfather and did all the voices word for word and it brought enjoyment into his life because it made him laugh his ass off, I was just messing around on UA-cam and thought wait a minute let me see if they have that skit somewhere it's been so long, my grandfather and I were very close and I always felt bad for him because he was wounded in the Korean War and he had a lot of health problems, so by making him laugh made me feel good deep down inside! I lost him in 1991 and not a day goes by that I don't think about him but anyway this brought back memories and I keep watching it over and over and it's funny as hell every time, and after all these years have gone by I can still pretty much imitate each voice but not like I used to, so thank you very much for this video it feels so good to laugh again!

    This skit for me is the absolute funniest of all time and has never left my memory after 30 years. I watched it again for the first time in many years and laughed so hard tears were streaming down my cheeks. I developed about 30 comedic voices after watching this entire video. Never got the John Wayne down but can do variations of Uncle Lloyd, Mistake, and Walter Brennan that never fail to make people laugh. God bless Jim Varney - he was a true comedic genius.
