Andy Kaufman Intros Pretenders on Fridays
Loading...
Uploaded by basetapes on Nov 3, 2006
Andy Kaufman made a second appearance on the show "Fridays" after his "botched" first appearance which ended with Kaufman nearly coming to blows with cast and crew.
During this second appearance he appeared as a "born again" Christian.
This snippet is the intro of the band, "Pretenders" but is cut because Kaufman decides to speak about the drug content of the last sketch.

@longdong9876 and Pete Farndon, the bass player

Debilitating, but absolutely necessary. Andy Kaufman torments the B. F. Skinner-trained audience by speaking out against drug abuse in a fake botched intro for The Pretenders.

Someone should have popped him good. On live TV.
-
@nascarlurg He was considered a comedic genius, and by the way, this was a setup. Just as his first appearance on the show.

I love Ernie Kovacs-Spike Milliagan-Cheech and Chong-Mel Brooks & Monty Python but I have never got the humor of Kaufman?!? Just unfunny and annoying to me. Though I did like him as a actor in movies and tv. But stand up forget it!

WWAD?

This had to be a setup. They wouldn't have closed the curtains at his "command".
-
@nascarlurg Weird, and here I always thought that Andy Kaufman and Nascar largely shared an audience
-
Andy Kaufman is Zach Galifianakis
-
Actually I think this is pretty darn funny by any standards. I love this guy oblivious to himself telling us how to live.

Kaufman was the original troll

What an amazing, offbeat sense of humor.
After a couple of minutes of standing there uncomfortably, you could tell the band "got it". :)
"OK, so we have to go to a commercial now"......BRILLIANT!
