The Mary Tyler Moore Show-"Chuckles Bites the Dust" Part 1

Chuckles the Clown is killed in an absurd accident and Mary is appalled at the reaction of her coworkers, who make a litany of corny jokes about the death. At the funeral, everyone promises Mary they will cease and desist, but during the service it is Mary who is unable to control her reactions.

I'm 22, and this show, Sanford and Son, and Taxi are some of the greatest shows ever! :D

Many of this show's jokes went way over my head as a kid back in the day. The same could be said for "All In The Family", "M*A*S*H", "Happy Days" and many others. Still, I enjoyed them very much at the level I was at. And now at age 46, I "get" the humor I missed the first time round. One could say that the series from this era (1970s) will stand the proverbial test of time for many years to come.

IMO, there haven't been three series worth watching--I'm addressing sitcoms--in the last 20 years.

The MTM show is the one show that've stood the test of time!! Which is why I LOVE it sooooo much!! I love this episode so much, it made me laugh especially the funeral scene! Long live the entire cast and crew. Espcially Mary!!! Such a sweet name!!

The Timing is absolutely perfect. This is what makes the classics fun...and this one of my top-10 favorite sit-com episodes.

1974-75 was a great year I had hair, not a care and MTM ruled the airwaves. Chuckles to you all!

OMG! I love this MTM episode. I don't think I ever laughed so hard in my life. XD

What ever happened to shows like this? It's fun! Today's stuff is either crude or just downright hateful.

Great episode and thank you. Outside of the last show - This is another of their best.
