Whenever I need a good laugh I watch W.C. Fields. The paper and the dessert being sticky cracks me up until I almost lose my breath. Fields didn't really have to say anything, his actions says it all. RIP
WC Fields makes me proud to say I lived in Philadelphia for over 20+ years. The self depricating humor of his day should be studied by modern scholars.
Great lines in this one! “I’ll smite you in the sconce with this truncheon!” “Carry a pie to a golf course? Never! That would be, uh, like, uh, carrying something or other, somewhere…or other, as the case may be…”😂
I was considering this sort of humor, where the pompous protagonist keeps getting deflated. Early Michael Richards did it a lot. The series "Frazier". Steve Carrol on "The Office." In actuality, many sitcoms.
I know, I caught that too at 3:55. They were talking about it in the Radio and electronics magazines around that time, and earlier in the 1920's. Also, they were displaying it's beginning forms at the World's Fairs and such. The Depression and later World War 2 limited it's roll out. It took off after the war.
@MichaelKingsfordGray You are correct. And don't Forget Philo Farnsworth. Another interesting tidbit of history- They were talking about Atom Bombs in the 1920's and 30's in science periodicals and science fiction. So, the concept wasn't that much of a "secret".

The best comedian of all time
What a talent. Will be remembered forever. January, 20025.
18:05 "Here's a club for you for short holes." LOL
What a beauty Shirley Grey was ❤
You can sometimes see, she couldn't keep from laughing, great skit
Great entertainment. Thank you.
Funny as heck. 😂
Mom used to joke, she couldn't take up golf, as she didn't know how to hold a caddie.
"Hello little boy."
"Would you give me a dollar?"
"Oh. It's a little girl."
🤣🤣🤣
Timeless.
“Stand clear boy, keep your eye on the ball”...W.C. was the best...
The woman with the dog is Mrs. Drysdale.
Eating spaghetti in public? He's gotta be pasta the statute of limitations by now.

Mrs. Drysdale from the Beverly Hillbillies 18:10 already acting superior.
Wow. Yes, indeed! Good catch.
Was she the one that stepped on his club?
Mrs.McGibbon.
