the lovable clown,
This review is from: Red Skelton: Lost Episodes 1 & 2 (VHS Tape)
on "Volume One" of the lost episodes, you'll laugh your head off {unless you're a sophisticate and frown on Red's brand of humor}. Vincent Price clearly steals the scene in his portion, playing an actor who needs to get in shape to appeal to his girlfriend. Price enlists the help of Red's Cauliflower McPugg character. in another segment, Red is George Appleby and the skit revolves around him being the star witness in a crime. Another skit has Red as Clem Kadiddlehopper meeting up with Li'l Abner and Daisy Mae. Freddy the Freeloader closes the comedy portion of the "Volume One" tape in a skit with Frank Lovejoy. In "Volume Two" we see Red as the same characters but in different stories. Ed Sullivan is shown in rare clips playing Red's characters {Red was sick during one season and had to be filled in for}. Audrey Meadows plays an aging actress helped to remain young via Clem's fountain of youth serum. Deadeye is captured by indians and in the spirit of live TV and Red's famed ad-libbing, the skit ends in a blooper. some of Red's pantomime skills are showcased too when he did a UN concert. Freddy the Freeloader's sketch deals with Edward Everett Horton trying to steal a little black box that Richard Deacan (prior to his role on Dick Van Dyke) asked Freddy to guard but not to open. George Appleby's skit involves Harpo Marx being a guardian angel with typical results. the last segment involves the cameo appearance by Jack Benny from 1962. Both lost episode volumes are excellant...however, Red is of an acquired taste. Low-brow, knock-about comedy isn't for everyone.
