I saw Steve McQueen arguing with Ernest Borgnine over a parking space many years ago and they *both* had on the same ruffled shirt as Doctor Z has on here. Great taste all round.
I'm sure he remembers, but I met Doctor Z at Albert Finney's beach party where he was the disc jockey. I was six G&G's (Gatorade and gin) deep, or as we called it back home: an Arkansas Sunrise. I was feeling the groove and in the mood for some Perry Como, and I'll be damned if Doctor Z didn't spin the entire 'Perry Como's Christmas Album' for yours truly right there in the middle of Albie Finney's beach party. Albie didn't mind of course - he was sharing an Arkansas Sunrise and dancing with a conch saying "Shell is my natural habitat.", but the others were a bit put off. We may have ruined the party, but parties are easy Como, easy gogo - friends last forever.
True story: We ran into Bob Hope at Pavilions in Burbank, couple of years before he passed. Saw his leashed dog first, he was chaperoned by a nurse - apparently his evening walk. He was wearing an NBC Sports cap and humming Thanks for the Memories. (I think his last public appearance was on Dr. Z's show later that week...)
I once tried to get Dr Z's autograph at the New York Comic Con. He trapped me for nearly 47 minutes telling me how Quincy Jones once tried to deal him some counterfeit levis jeans from the back of a VW van in upstate New York.... In 2003. Quincy was apparently on hard times and Dr Z felt sorry for him. The story ended there when he noticed my eyes glazed over. I then realised he was about to start telling me how Darren McGavin once asked him directions to an orgy being held by James Warren in Queens near Caesars Retreat. Thankfully I managed to grab the attention of the dude who played Khan in Star Trek and he saved me. Thanks Ricardo!
"Dr. Z's wardrobe by Botany 500." See, I would never have caught that if I didn't do a screen cap of Max Headroom for my friend who can't watch the show until later.
I'm so happy there's a new episode! The banter between Dr Zaius and Rusty kills me. 😂 I've been wondering if he would have Hank Azaria on. Excellent! Keep them coming! 😎👍❤️
This reminds me of the best of the 70’s … Cannon, The gong show, The tonight show and playboy after dark.. maybe Tom Sydner .. Big old cars, sexy ladies in skinny dresses…. The whole great time of funny and silliness!!! Love this show!!
Still waiting for Ruth Buzzi to appear as a guest so we can get down to the behind the scenes shenanigans when they filmed "Chu Chu and the Philly Flash".
Dr. Z had a romance with Ruth that went really bad. Artie Johnson and he got into a rapier duel over her. Z actually won, but Ruth never spoke to him again because he pierced Artie's thigh with the tip.
When oh when is the musical 'Stop the Planet of the Apes. I want to get off!' going to be staged on Broadway. I think it's the perfect time with Hanging with Dr. Z being such a huge internet sensation.
Holy crap, Batman! Dana - this was my first episode of Dr. Z and my jaw about hit the floor with your ad for Lola Bars! Love the original Kinks image with Pete. As for true stories, I got to check Rod Serling in for a puddle jumper flight in San Luis Obispo on Swift Air (a 14 passenger De Havilland Heron propellor plane) in 1974 and he bummed a couple cigarettes off me. Not exactly a proud moment since he died from heart failure a year later at only 50 yrs old. But still a fun moment to remember. Enjoying your crazy show. Thanks for being so weird.
One evening in 1972 I saw Hank Azaria with Totie Fields playing mini golf at the Putt-Putt on Sepulveda. They weren’t keeping score if you know what I mean.
I remember seeing Hank at one of Dr Z's infamous parties. Mind you, Hank isn't that old, only in his 50s, but this was very early in his career. Dr. Z tried setting him up with a very late in life Zsa Zsa Gabor as his Sugar Mama. I never heard anything about it after that day, but Hank did leave the party with Elayne Boosler.
I still recall the last time I ran into the Z man. We were lounging around Boardner’s and due to the cigarette smoke enveloping the breathable air, I truly wasn’t sure whether I had walked into a bar or I had hit my head and been decompressed into nothing and reanimated in Topeka Kansas during the height of the Dust Bowl. Anyhow, depression era imagery aside, as I waltz into the back room, two doors down from the vip area, I see none other than Dr. Z posted near the wall, with Tippi Hedren (by god what a firecracker) on one arm, and Yvonne Craig on the other. Z was entertaining some of the finer points of wind sailing in Bosphorus with the lovely ladies. Tippi, the battle axe she is,gently retorts with the famous Amelia Earhart saying “a man is never lost at sea, but sometimes a woman is.” I remember wondering if he took both of them home, or just Yvonne…the rascal.
I think that branding deal on Russian tanks was a bad move. On the upside, they forgot to ad the "Hangin' with Dr." part (hard to fit on a tank), but still.
Getting ready for season three tomorrow on January 22nd. I've been watching all the old episodes and I'm just want to confirm that Dana Gould is a comedy genius. I love Dr. Z., but I also loved Dana when he played Garth and the church lady. He was really funny on SNL. I guess I'm confusing him with the other Dana, Dana Carvey...so I really wouldn't call Dana Gould a comic genius, but he is occasionally funny.
This show is criminally underrated
What else is new…
;)
Does that mean criminals underrate it??
By whom? Does anyone not think it's wonderful?
I literally just found this channel and I have no idea how I've never heard of this before
Its not that its underrated its that nobody knows about it, needs to be promoted

That. Is. Fantastic.

I still can't understand how this doesn't get millions of views
Baffling. It’s so good

As a child of the seventies, I cant get enough of this! what a phenomenal oasis in these hellish times!
I’m so happy I stumbled upon this while looking at classic POTA!

You’re hired!
Good one
To the man upstairs; “You give us war, but you also give us Dr Z”. I’m gobsmacked by the comic brilliance here, keep it coming.
"Dr. Z's wardrobe by Botany 500." See, I would never have caught that if I didn't do a screen cap of Max Headroom for my friend who can't watch the show until later.
I am so hooked on this. The "51% sure" line was lightning bolt genius! Laugh o' the night! Huzzah, Dr. Z!
I'm so happy there's a new episode! The banter between Dr Zaius and Rusty kills me. 😂 I've been wondering if he would have Hank Azaria on. Excellent! Keep them coming! 😎👍❤️

The "oh stop it" shit he pulls when he first walks out just kills me every single time.
This show is an absolute gem and I swear it's just a matter of time until this channel blows up.
The little movements on the Lola bar box made me think I accidentally took my bedtime pills with breakfast. Well done.
My God I love this show!
This show is magic! Brings much laughter and joy 👏👏👏👏
Thank you!!
Show’s really coming into its own..Especially with the good Dr and Rusty going back and forth.Fun stuff!!
So nice to see Amanda Huginkiss on the show.
Still waiting for Ruth Buzzi to appear as a guest so we can get down to the behind the scenes shenanigans when they filmed "Chu Chu and the Philly Flash".

Monkey business says I...Ruth JoAnn Whirley and Z all had an intimate moment or summer doing things thricely if ya catch my drift
Or the down and dirty details of Lost Saucer
When oh when is the musical 'Stop the Planet of the Apes. I want to get off!' going to be staged on Broadway.
I think it's the perfect time with Hanging with Dr. Z being such a huge internet sensation.
Is that the one with the show stopper song "Gorilla My Dreams"?
I have to admit, I was hoping for a "Herman's Head" question or two, but I can't say I was in ANY WAY disappointed by this episode! Top notch!
this may be the best one yet this season. i mean, the poker exchange was worth the price of admission ALONE.
Hilarious! I laughed all the way through, but the Joey Heatherton stuff almost killed me!
The box in the advert for the Fux-Creme Lola Bar's chocolate coating warning notes "May contains traces of amphetamines."

To be fair, everyone at that party left with Elayne Boosler
@@likecrazyhorse Nancy Walker ended up stealing all of Booslers' bang-bang for many years.

Can't get enough of the Doctor's religious instruction. The Main Cat!
Henry Winkler's delightful. But if you happen to run into him, don't get into a conversation about sharks.
Sharks are not the problem...it is jumping them that is!
Joey Heatherton, I could handle. Rula Lenska, however, made my life a living hell after a few Martini & Rossis.
On the rocks? Say yes!
So great the banter between Z and Azaria.
Dana Gould is saving post-pandemic comedy.
Kyle Dunnigan is holding his own on that front as well, I'd say..
Can we get a whole episode of Dr Z explaining various prison phrases...!? I feel that would be really playing to his audience.
This show makes Spaceghost look like Merv Griffin
Can't wait to see your next appearance on Hollywood Squares!
Another epic installment. My favorite part is that Dr. Z did not ask Hank to do any of his voices!
I truly smell maple syrup and fried chicken whenever I watch this show. More coffee please!
The Lola ice cream with a dark chocolate fudge surprise in the middle. LOL 🤣😂😂
Makes the time change go down smooth. Great show tonight!
The Executive in Charge of Fooey credit. Love it.
one of the most important things in life is keeping a relaxed urethra
Love you Dr Z!
Gets better every episode!
Hank Azaria is the best ever!
"what a way to go out." pure gold
Rusty, keep your wheel running forever! 🤍
BEST ONE YET. And that's a crowded field.
It is a crying shame that this channel doesn't have ten times the viewership. This is the best thing ever. Thank you Dana Z.
Each episode gets better !!!
This is hillarious. Thank you!
The funny thing is that Rusty, with his 39 cats, is actually a dog person.
That's soooo Rusty.
Those are Claudine's cats.
Rusty's hilariously not playing any of those instruments.
How is it you only have 16k subs been loving the show.
"Guests of Dr. Z are routinely disappointed" - the credits are gold!
He's the Hunter Thompson of Doctors lol
I'd kill to get access to Dr. Z interviewing Max Headroom.
I love these episodes!!!
If you watch the credits at 25% speed to catch all the names, the music is the trippiest trip you can trip without chemical assistance.
Deep Purple live in Copenhagen 1972 flashbacks...
the vast musical scope of Rusty Steel and the Steel Wheels is grossly underrated. (p.s the fine print on the box of Lola Bars is why I'm here)
Little known fact: Rusty used to jam with Prince back in the day and he produced most of his good albums.
The man can do a rim shot on a keyboard at the drop of a hat. Genius.
The LoLa Bar packaging was Extraordinary!
Im shocked they didn't reminisce about backstage after Planet Of The Apes The Musical
Best show yet!
I'd like to see Dr Z on the Dana Gould podcast, I think they would have a lot in common.
There is no Dana only Zaius.
I love Lola bars! Mostly because they contain Amphetamines. 😂
Always leaves me wanting more.
One of your best!
Did Hank play Dr. Z in "Planet of the Apes: the Musical"?
Actually that was the real Dr. Z, but on screen they credited it to the guy who plays Homer.
I look forward to new episodes of this than anything else these days. Thank you Dr Z.
Doctor of Showbusiness!
8-))
I love old Hollywood references and I still always wind up with about 5 things to look up. Clearly, "Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hay!" needs a remake.
Ohhh mannn. I just learned that this was the last episode i had left to watch 😭
I’ll bet those Lola bars have nuts!
I Can Only Hope When I'm Of a Certain Age, I Can Dress as Dapper az the Doctor!🔥👌
Brilliant.
This show is more fun than the 3-way I had with Don Knotts and Norman Fell in '77
Tim Conway was supposed to be there, but he got stuck waiting in a gas line.
That Ozzy Osbourne sure looks like a nice young man. I hope he steers clear of all the drugs and alcohol going around.
I think that branding deal on Russian tanks was a bad move. On the upside, they forgot to ad the "Hangin' with Dr." part (hard to fit on a tank), but still.
I love how Azaria is so game
Running late this week. So looking forward to something awesome.
It’s been years since I’ve had a Lola bar… or any Fux-Crème, for that matter… I still have my lucky fluid tho… memories….
03:00
🤘🏿😆😈🤘🏿Dr.Z rocks!!!🎸🍻\m/
Best episode ever
AAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHH!!!!!! 🙂 Thank you for this!!!!
Rusty is pretty much Zorak but with less getting blown up
Best one of the new season, imho
Lola bars first surprise is the nuts, the second is you like it
It's Apu's killer
Lola bars: may contain traces of amphetamines.
I'm dying.😂
Yeah, and what is "Fux creme"??
The cat upstairs. The main cat.
With apologies to Sammy.
you slay me, Dr. Z!
Keeping it Brockmire, baby. ;b
the kinks lola bar joke I liked

I see Dr Z is now borrowing his suits from Doug Stanhope.
The dream of Adult Swim lives on with Dr. Z.
Da…. um Doctor Z is incredible, obviously, but Pa… um, Rusty is comedy gold.
