The Tapes Of Wrath (part 2) bloopers

[BecuzISaidSoGoddamit]

Mara's got a happy finger.

[thetaxmancometh]

This video was NOT a network blooper real. It is part of a video called The Tapes of Wrath which was aired at the 39th Annual Dinner of the Radio and Television Correspondents Association on March 24, 1983

[swampass24]

People want to watch videos that actually fit the title in the thumb. Of this video said bloopers and four minutes of annoying filler I would have never watched it.

[lyric403]

5:45 "Everyone loves fresh vegetables and......buttermilk biscuits." Hilarious!

[grievousorvenom]

did the singing fruit thingies scare anybody else lol

[Danniel1397]

This would have been a great video if those annoying ass singing pumpkins werent in it

[existenceisrelative]

I haven't written it yet, mothers!

[prolsit]

this is absolutely brilliant haha

[anonymousandcool]

5:37 "If I don't get on the air it's all over I'll be out here with you guys in the park" LMFAO! I do a local tv show and people come up to me like the clip at 5:41 LOL Reporter: "Trying to get some peace and work done here, ok?" Hobo: "Everyone loves fresh vegetables..." xD

[mkelly13207]

What's the song?

[BREN70S]

probably could have done without the singing bulls testicles but funny nonethelass :)

[motorbreath1983]

yeah the bulls balls were a bit nightmare material footage. But rather odd in a good way (?)

[TabbyAngel2]

GOOD EVENING LMFAO

[AmbassadorJediSpock]

"I know it's getting late but this looks like dog s**t"

Hehehe! It does

[monsoonostrich]

I quite enjoyed it. Also, I smell like mouse excrement.

[angelmassb]

Watch out where you sit next time

[NEWLOVE559]

wtf take a bath and call an exterminator

[rakistataguig]

mothers!!! LOL!!

[FunHurts]

Donaldson is a gangster! "You Mothers....!!!"

rofl

[ccwii]

I second that, I wish more anchors kept it gangster like that! I'd love to see someone like Brian Williams roll up on someone and give them the pimp hand one day.

[nikoru8407]

omg....look at 7:44. what looks like a cross on the smaller boy's cap is upside down. lol. and the boy looks just like Damien. anybody else catch that?

[nikoru8407]

the smallest boy in the hanukkah clip looks like Damien from the Omen.

[GWhizIneedAname]

Acts like him, too.

[BadGirl344]

naughty.

[screwuguysgoinghome]

a young sam donaldson looking like neil diamond

[AeroPR]

hahaahh 8:10 is the best one

[BigBoiJC]

13 instant eye...wasn't that from WTVT

[UIWWildthing]

That was Richard Sher from WJZ in Baltimore. I think I said this earlier, but I remember seeing that live as a kid. The other anchor that was cracking up was the late Jerry Turner.

[ITISSTILLLUKE]

"Good Eeeving" 1:33

2:07 is so funny

[ExRepublican96]

Help! I've been looking for years for the song Papaoohmowmow by The Rivingtons. Could you tell me where I could buy it or hear the whole thing again???

[stargazer3k]

["as Mara .. would say, we're #1"] haha

[fredrox34]

jeez ppl from the 80's r cranky!!

[gus4all]

That Hanukah clip with that kid messing with her brother is hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing. The father just acted normal and kept talking. You could even see the mother laughing.

Those talking melons are really freaky.

[DancinintheFaygorain]

those singing watermelons that one male voice sounds kinda like that guy who sang surfing bird

[ChrisRedfield13]

hahahahahahahaha she fliped someone off LOL

[dormi87]

Some of the best quotes are on this clip:

"Well if that's the woman, you tell her to shut up." -That man is rather fanciable :)

"Just let me do this, cuz if I don't get on the air, it's all over; I'll be out here with you guys in the park." -Fucking ace!

"But if you could move for a moment, I'll get on tonight!" :D

[dormi87]

"Well as Mara Wolynski would say, we're number one."

LOL!!!

[wmbrown6]

Sounds almost like a moment out of "Weekend Update" - alas, as you can see, this did really happen. Perhaps Roger Grimsby's most famous and oft-quoted witticism in all his years at WABC . . .

[mistatibbs]

That settles it. The name of my garage band will be "Sam Donaldson and the Mothers".

[grytpype]

ha ha ha i never comb my hair ha ha ha

[LTDANMAN44]

wtf

[kngedy03]

those singing things are so annoying

<<please kill me>>>>

[cimetiere]

lmfao "make any move and I'll start" :: flail jump ::

[troinquaker]

we're number one. ha! reminded me of my old station, me and weather guy would always flip each other off or i would mouth "fuck you" before he went on air.

[Stixman41]

LMAO!

[davidhrod]

We're number 1

[BirNEnMosT]

Youtube is so slow ...

[carolkath]

the news bloopers were funny...but those round singing things will haunt my nightmares.

[slap1328]

I concur

[Ian16545]

There's no way that the guy who's saying "Take 4, coming in at 3-2-1" and continually messing up again be Chuck Scarborough, right?

[brithgob]

That's Mike Boettcher

[tomajunz]

funny the british will twy..bahahahah

[hicks2892]

lol... just 15 minutes guy please or I'll be out here with you guys in the park..

[snowrocket]

Hilarious. This shows "the human side of reporting". Or maybe that, when not on the air, some reporters are just fools. Really, really BIG pompous fools.

[videonut33]

"I won't be watching daytime television!

Bill Plant, CBS NEWS, The White House.

THAT'S IT! NO MORE!"

[UIWWildthing]

WOW, I remember the Richard Sher blooper (WJZ 13) from when I was kid!

[mohanurs]

ABC catering...hahaha

[bruinway]

lol Youre right,XocaiChocolate. I want to know WHY the reporter needed to know about the catering co. CLASSIC!

[spaceyrules]

Sam Donaldson is a dumbass punk who should be knocked out.

[ytrewq1994]

What happened to Mara Wolynski? Did she get fired or demoted?

[ytrewq1994]

What song were those watermelons singing?

[uppercut999]

Great collection.. but WTF are those weird round things??

[ytrewq1994]

What's with all the takes on that blond guy with the striped tie?

[m4rs12]

"we are number one indeed"

LOOOLZ

[Wholelotofshakingoin]

They all have hair do's that look like they just woke up.

[rome80222]

lolllllllllllllllllllllllll loved ur comment

[XocaiChocolate]

At 4:25 the guy way in the back reacting the blooper is the funniest part

[brithgob]

I would NOT want to get on Sam Donaldson's bad side.

That "train coming" guy was just weird -- they were the right words... but his tone was just wrong.

And I'll bet that was Roy Neal's last appaearance on the Today show.

Did anyone else think as they were watching, "Oh, that's Carole Simpson... she's obviously about to have an airbag mishap."?

[slimeytoes]

Get Him Sam Donaldson!

[ladronita]

That's all well and good, but... but... what was with those... THINGS?

[Superedit]

I was hoping someone would post this! I had this tape when it first came out...lost to history (or a few moves between cities, I'm not sure which...) Thanks for this!

[GWhizIneedAname]

Happy to share it! I consider it an important part of history, as well as great bloopers. I think I have a pretty decent copy to work from, too.

[ThatOneDude88]

Great collection of bloopers. Lots of old faces here, too.
