Shecky
thanks, never heard of him...
i used to see him on tv sometimes. always considered him an "also-ran" comedian. but now he sounds more like a comedian's comedian. always had single name recognition. there is no other shecky.
You guys are kidding me, right? Him and Buddy Hackett were great friends. Find some old footage if you can.
And btw, I *hate* that white text on black. It's SO hard on the eyes. Use this tool if you'd like to strip the color out:

Cool, huh? :)
thanks for that. i was seeing reverse horizontal black lines in my vision this afternoon. i saw tons of over the top buddy hackett on carson but shecky never quite killed on tv like that.
It's like the article said - Shecky never fit the screen. It's unfortunate. I saw him a couple of times in the 70s. Amazing.
