Laugh-In: Tiny Tim's Third Appearance (February 5th, 1968)

That was gangsta!!

[justicetrooper]

I love the attitude I gather from Tiny Tim. The idea of enjoying every minute of life, and to not let the world convince you otherwise.

[NotNamedJones]

why do the audience think this is funny? this is great..

[stillratz]

God bless Tiny Tim...his music bought more than laughter and joy...

[Pouchy17]

Haha<3333 Love Tiny! God rest his beautiful soul

People overdo Tiny the genius bit. He was an original even though he rarely wrote any stuff. A lot of his best stuff was incredibly old so to be different wasnt easy. The personality is hard to figure - was he for real or was he putting it all on? He was even weird even for the 60's. I like his first album. After that it went downhill for me. Still I admire him for his willingness to be true to himself.

Tiny Tim scares me!!!! o____O

@59220...your an idiot, the 70s were great as was this show...nuff said!

[MJandST2926]

1. Yes, I am aware of the years which Laugh-In ran on television. From your comment, one might think you were inferring that the footage in questions was taped in the 70's. 2. It's clear the a LIVE audience is reacting to Tiny Tim's movements and statements. A laughing track would not have had such specific reactions. Lastly, have you never heard disclaimers that appear at the end of shows? '...was filmed in front of a LIVE studio audience.' So, yes, that is the proper way to have describe it.

[592220]

This was the WORST damn show on TV. DAMN the 70's sucked. They need to shoot the a-hole who came up with canned laughter because the shit ain't funny!!

[GodBlessYouTinyTim]

@592220 1. This episode aired in 1968, not the 70's. 2. It was filmed before a live studio audience.

[592220]

@GodBlessYouTinyTim 1. Laugh In ran from 1968 - May of 1973 the vast majority of shows were filmed in the 1970's. The late 60's were no better. 2. You do realize how ridiculous it is to say it was filmed before a live studio audience - what else would they be, DEAD? And they use canned laughter whether there is an audience or not, it was FILMED, they edit the show before broadcast

@592220 At the time, the audience thought Tiny Tim was an actor pretending to be a hippy with his 1920s' Tip Toe to the Garden. The ratings were HIGH every time Tiny Tim appeared on Laugh In, Johnny Carson Show.

[caprice6]

The reason the show was cancel by NBC, it was getting too political, too racy.

[OurGangFan]

I not only have this episode on tape but the whole 1st season plus the pilot! Laugh-In is everything Miley Cyrus isn't!

[KodaRollins]

Martin was kind of a dick.

[4kn]

I was lucky enough to meet him once. One of the nicest people I ever met. A gentle soul and quite a genius on esoteric music. RIP Tiny Tim and God Bless You.

[brittanybug10]

@4kn Oh lucky! :D

[pooopooopooopp]

@4kn WOW! ur the Luckyest prsn ever!!!! 

[VealParmigiana]

I didn't know TT was a dancer. He swiveled his hips as well as Elvis.

[Greg07623]

He was a unique, sweet, extraordinarily dear man, whom I actually got to know fairly well through my affiliations in the entertainment industry. Really one of the kindest, most appreciative, altruistic and charming people I've ever met and I'm very proud to say we were friends.

[accordionsfrommars]

This is fantastic. He was such a good man
