Milton Berle's Mad Mad World of Comedy with guests Dick Martin, Eddie Quillan, Pat Buttram and Mort Sahl (1974)

Ignore the hokey credit crawl, this special is excellent. Not the nonsense you'd expect from a 1970s Milton Berle special, this is a fascinating series of interviews. This is surely the only time you'll ever see Milton Berle interview Mort Sahl about Lenny Bruce. This is a surprisingly exceptional special.

Richard Nixon gets Rowan & Martin on the Line (1973)


From the Video Description:

President Richard Nixon talks with Dan Rowan and Dick Martin from the popular television show, Laugh In. Nixon thanks the two men for a special skit they filmed for his private birthday party that had been held the previous day.


The skit was arranged by Nixon's friend Paul Keyes, who was a writer on Laugh In. It was Keyes who had gotten Nixon to make his famous appearance on Laugh In during the 1968 campaign, when he said the show's catchphrase, "Sock it to me?" The three men also discuss football, a particular enthusiasm of Nixon's.

I know it's the horrible eighties, but still, how cool is it to see Betty White and Lucille Ball together?

The Lucy Show with special guest star Charles Lane (1963)

The Lucy Show (1962)

Approximately forty public domain episodes of The Lucy Show are available ad nauseam in bargain bins, on the internet and in public libraries - and occasionally even on those nearly dead institutions known as independent television stations. Far more elusive are the many episodes not in the public domain, and lucky us, this is one of those episodes.
