Andy is the smartest comic ever to have lived, he was way before his time and had he been doing these performances today, he would still be before his time.
He'd be canceled today. He set the groundwork for something special. He wouldn't be the same if he was around today. He came at just the right time... He just came to early for you and me because we didn't get to fully experience him in all his glory while he was alive
Even Sacha Baron Cohen realises that Kaufman is in a different league. However I would be lying if I said Borat didn't make me laugh. But Borat and Bruno and Ali G is all broad comedy, Kaufman really thought out his characters.
Wish they included that beautiful TCR bar in television now a days. I only watched this video because it included it.

this was hilarious had me in stitches so funny clever and quick witted
Mike Douglas to boot! I loved his show
I remember this show
Here's some real wild trivia. This is 1976. The woman is Bernadette Peters whom Andy Kaufman would co-star in HEARTBEEPS five years later.
*if only there was a way to be reminded of how long this runs...*

The bar is part of the act

shanustheanus Andy started it all. No doubt about it.
They are about in the same league, but Andy was pioneering.
Where is part two?
There's probably a copy of this without the tcr bar this is from the original master this has been done deliberate so it can't be bootlegged
lol yeah thats what I was thinking too
The film Kaufman is talking about here is called Alice Sweet Alice.
I think it's actually 'Carrie'
The original Borat.
@jericho100008 well said
And Bernadette peters!
Is that Bernadette Peters? Yummy!
jajajajaja
Got a feeling Mike Douglas may be sporting a syrup.
I can't wait for Andy to come out and surprise us ALL, no, Andy, you will NOT have a Come Back...you will never leave us...God Bless...what a ARTIST
Yeah, but which is more profound; heaven or hell?
He looks like the bass player from Nirvana.
BayviewFinch lead singer of Reel Big Fish
so maybe its true that he didnt die after all
TCR???????????????????
always a jsilence418 in every group.....hatin on someone whose intellect is superior.
Desd
Sorry, but this bit is pretty boring to be fair.
Very fucked up video!!
andy kaufman apart from some taxi episodes ,overrated, and unfunny.
jsilence418 I agree. He demonstrated a serious lack of fresh ideas.
Idk man, 100% commitment to a character, Will Ferrell/Sasha Baren Cohen level. Watch him on the dating game. Or letterman.
That’s the point 😂
