Laugh-In was one of the greatest comedy-musical-variety shows in the history of television.

Great memories.

RIP, and thanks for the memories, the laughter and the fun!

.....very interesting....but schtupid!

I have vague memories of watching Laugh-In as a wee small child. I did not understand the humor, but loved the colors and the craziness. For some reason, I could watch and still be mesmerized, even though I was too young to understand some of the jokes.

RIP.

I was no wee, small child when Laugh In was on. In fact, I was 18 when it first appeared. It felt like it as talking to me and my friends - personally!

I'm feeling awfully old and sad right now.

Mamie - just think of all the wonderful things that you've had the pleasure of sharing!

I had a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that he was 86. He had a long life, and gave much back. RIP.

I used to get up early my senior year of High School to watch the re-runs on Trio. I didn't get a lot of the jokes, but I still loved it.

It is hard to believe he was 86.
I used to watch it as a kid and loved it. I always thought I was watching something forbidden and risque.

No mention of his wife, Dolly (Read) Martin, who is best known for her role as Kelly McNamara in Beyond the Valley of the Dolls; and, her many appearances on The Match Game and Tattletales

Dolly was also a Playboy centerfold.
