Red Skelton by Red Skelton
One of Televisions most popular comedians. Red Skelton hosted his own series for 20 years, 17 of them on CBS. He is famous for so many different characters from Junior (the mean Widdle Kid), Freddie the Freeloader, Clem Kadiddlehopper, George Appleby, Sheriff Deadeye, Willy Lump Lump, Cauliflower McPugg, Cookie the Sailor, San Fernando Red, Bolivar Shagnasty, and others. Probably the first know mime also (without the white make-up. 8 episodes of hilarious old-time comedy at its best.
