SEVEN COMEDIANS PLAYING WITH LANGUAGE

“Words to me are a plaything.” — Tom Smothers

  1. VICTOR BORGE, “INFLATIONARY LANGUAGE”

2. GEORGE CARLIN, “EVERYDAY EXPRESSIONS”

3. ANDY GRIFFITH, “WHAT IT WAS, WAS FOOTBALL”

4-5. KEY AND PEELE, “CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST”

6-7. ABBOTT & COSTELLO, “WHO’S ON FIRST?”

No women? The Attic searched (and searched) for female comedians playing with language. Ellen? Gilda? Lily? Tig? Nope. Any suggestions will be added to the mix.
