This TV show goes down as at LEAST the top 3 Funniest ever! Tim Moore never really got his due,the show in general was "Aped" by the Honeymooners, Sanford and Son and a host of others.
Pure Genius!!!!!! Without doubt one of the best shows ever. I just can't make myself like Bill Cosby because I heard he was the most instrumental in getting it taken off the air. He said it made black people look bad. If it made them look anything it was fantastic / wonderful.
Fuck i hate it when people get mad about this show. The writing was stellar. The actors had amazing timing and comedy chops. There was rarely an outlet for black actors in this era.
what a fantastic actor Johnny Lee was. He was the perfect brer rabbit and the perfect calhoun. what a shame he was never a big league actor. thank you for the video!
Morris Ankarum as the judge, amazing!
Ankarum often played the judge during the later Perry Mason series!
Small world.

This is great stuff. Tim and Spencer were wonderful actors. They all were.

The pistol gag was seen in The Three Stooges short "Disorder in the Court". This is some funny stuff!

@akytilop I agree with you. Althought I don't particularly care for the dialogue but it was funny.
