[ Extras ] That’s Dancing! Intro

I incorrectly remembered this as being from That’s Entertainment III. Sadly, this clip ends JUST BEFORE we get to Gene Kelly on the streets of New York with the breakdancers. If you have an AppleTV, search out the film in the TV App, and the trailer is the part JUST AFTER what I was discussing - he’s on the street, and you can see the breakdancers. Or just pay to rent the film. It’s pretty great.

I owe no copyright to this video. I have just taped it a long time ago and I want to share it with millions of MGM fans all over the world. A delightful opening scene narrated by Gene Kelly. A beautiful retrospective documentary on MGM's best dance sequences!

Imperial Margarine!

I am completely OBSESSED with elocutionary speech habits that were required of all actors up until the 1970s. Note how they pronounce “MAW-jur-in” … LMAO!!

So, is it me or does everyone in this commercial sound like they have a Long Island New York Accent???

Australian Toaster Biscuits!

(Not Thomas’ English Muffins as we had speculated)

I had this on-going debate if the "it makes my mouth water" commercial was an English Muffin commercial, or something else. Well this is what I found. Thanks to a Yahoo! group and Platypus Comix! Orowheat Australian Toaster Biscuits commercial. They're much fluffier than those hard English things.

Yo Mamma!

In our discussion about “Yo Mamma So Fat” jokes, I later thought of these 2 SNL sketches with Richard Pryor, from December 1975. (If you can imagine, this was the SEVENTH episode of SNL. EVER.) Both contain “Yo Mamma” jokes, though not necessarily in the structure that Damon Wayans would later re-popularize in the 1990s.

In this racially-charged parody of The Exorcist, two priests (Richard Pryor, Thalmus Rasulala) confront a little girl (Laraine Newman) who's possessed by the devil, says vile things and insults their mothers.
