That was classic Colin! What a great reminder of how gifted an actor is takes to play a drunk.

...and to make Dean Martin the sober one... genius.
The special thing there is that Foster Brooks cracked up Deano with his ad-libs.

Was that Mr. Jadah? 
That's one of my favorite sketches ever. I used to imitate Foster Brooks as a kid, sans beard. It was funny, strange and somewhat alarming. Toured all the class parties doing bits. The kids threw candy.

Interesting you'd post this. When I landed the role of George Hay in "Moon Over Buffalo" this past spring, I had to play a drunk for half of the show. This is one of several Foster Brooks videos I studied, along with a couple of Dudley Moore videos, to learn how to portray a drunk. Like Dean Martin, I was wiping tears from my eyes everytime I watched this.

| What a charmer you are, Mr. J. Ah, yes. Just like the boys I "dated" on college radio. The effect is doubled by gazing upon your new avatar -- Yummy Ewan McGregor. Couldn't you find a publicity shot from Trainspotting?

Ewan MacGregor?! And here, I thought that was you, Robert! Thought you might be changing your name to Robert Jedi.
