Anyone know where I can find "The Chevy Chase Show," a 1977 TV special??? (not the 1993 talk show.) I've searched everything and would really appreciate some help!!
this sketch was good (though recycled from earlier SNL ideas) but the show in general was pretty consistently awful. Chevy Chase was simply not a good talk show host.
Youknow how shitty your show was when this was the funniest thing it ever had on it, AND when the climax of this bit..the part that got the most applause, was when William Christopher shows up in person for 5 seconds...
this scene was funny but his show was horrible. He was bad at doing standup, I guess something he never had dont before. I just remember him doing standup and the sweat dripping from his forehead. He started this show saying he would dethrown David Letterman. Having said that I think is the show was a litter different it might have worked. I remember something called Chevey Chase Experiment and that was good.
craig ferguson is crap. I live in Scotland & he was crap on our local smjall tv network. He disappeared off radar, next thing he reinvented himself & was swanning around Hollywood. I say well done for making it big but, he is not funny. Funny looking, yes.
chevy chase is as funny as craig fergusson in my opinion, but back when he attempted late night tv, america wasn't as unwound as it is now. If he would of had a last night show today, he woulda made it with ease.
@drpepper350 Just curious, what do you mean by "unwound"? uptight, loose, chaotic? I wasn't sure what you meant. I agree that the show would have been more successful were it on today.
i have never seen seth rogan in anything. i am not in the EMO generation. i have, though, grown up watching chase on SNL and used to see his movies as a kid and if you cannot admit that the chevy chase show was horrible, then i am at a loss.
Who cares what you think? I'm going to end this childish banter now because I; unlike you, have more meaningful things to spend my time on. Have a great day!
its just so stupid only a circus clown with an asshole for a brain would find that funny. Wht planet are u from u stupid idiot. I would love to sell u some saskatchewan seal skin bindings.
I think you need to up your doseage or something. Why do you care if I find that funny or not? I'm suprised you're old enough to remember the Chevy Chase show. By the way you're behaving, I'm envisioning you to be a 16 yr old kid using mommy and daddy's computer. Here's an idea, instead of bashing people's opinions, why don't you go and comment a Hannah Montana video or something a little more geared toward your maturity level.
Thanks Kerry, I agree I learned to pratfall from the master ... met him while he was filming funny farm he was awesome !!! People are so easy to bash other people without walking a mile in their shoes ... =)
CHevy CHase stopped being funny a long long time ago...He attracts negative energies and wherever he goes he seems to create enemies...remember his snl days? That seems to be his problem...He may have gfood materials and may deliver his punchlines well, but what good it would be if many people actually don't dig you anymore because of your personality. If I am wrong, then tell me where is he now? to oblivion I guess.
I thought he had some classic moments during the run of this show. It could have been ok if they gave it a chance. I guess his infamous attitude made him a lot of enemies that were more than happy to torpedo this show.
Given the ratings, there is no way FOX could have continued with the show. Sponsors had been promised a certain number of viewers. When nobody watched, the network lost money and sponsors pulled out.
If you find that funny, you might find this funny as well ... can't leave a website link so check out youtube dot com/garywendall and Lasagna in 5 minutes =)

at least Chevy supports the lard industry, not like that piece of scum Les Claypool and his Danish anti-lard agenda.
