A sampling of Hope's television monologues which opened every special he hosted. Included, his 1978 special celebrating his 29th year with NBC... a salute to the 75th Anniversary of the World Series in 1978... a tribute to the N.F.L.'s 60th year in 1981... political jokes on Anwar Sadat, Menacham Begin and presidents Carter, Ford and Reagan -- a sampling of some of Bob's best laughs.
Read how Hope's writers created his monologues in THE LAUGH MAKERS by Robert L. Mills available for $2.99 from Kindle

You can read all about what happened backstage while shooting these classic Bob Hope video clips by reading Bob Mills' book "THE LAUGH MAKERS: A Behind-the-Scenes Tribute to Bob Hope's Incredible Gag Writers." Says "laugh-In's" Gary Owens:
"The Laugh Makers is the book we've all been waiting for. It's jam-packed with stories, anecdotes and un-retouched photos from a fondly remembered past, recalling often hilarious, sometimes heartwarming, and always touching tales of legendary stars, near-legendary stars and one or two complete failures — which happens in show business. You can look it up in your Funk & Wagnalls."
