"Important" - John Hodgman, The Daily Show
The Museum of the Moving Image (in Queens, NY) ran this entire segment at its Jerry Lewis retrospective in the '80s. I don't remember it being half an hour, but it was pretty long and absolutely hilarious. Bob Hope returns to the stage at some point is clearly pissed-off at Jerry in particular as each tries to take control of the stand-up mike. At one point Hope barks, "Shut up, you little idiot!" with an edge in his voice. Bing supposedly ran off stage because he was afraid Dean & Jerry were going tear off his toupee.
Classic! Yeah, Bing would not want to lose the hairpiece. I never saw this sort of ad libbing and improv from Jerry before. No doubt he did it all the time. Great stuff!
fantastic clip...have never seen it before! thanks!
