Yesterday, flipping consecutive channels, I saw the great comedian, Buddy Hackett on both, in neither case, as anywhere near the star performer.

First I tuned in and saw Mr. Hackett in “Muscle Beach Party.” Then after quickly flipping the channel, this around 7 P.M. Eastern Time, he was part of the great show, “Rowan and Martin’s Laugh In” being shown nearly fifty years after its original air date on NBC on “Decades.”

Mr. Hackett, a magnificent talent can be seen as a panelist on “What’s My Line,” by clicking the link below.
