That was pretty funny. What was a bit puzzling was, he used the word
"shit" in the skit. I don't think you could have gotten away with that
back in those days.

This show was on Showtime, if I'm not mistaken. One of the pay cable
premium channels, so they got away with a lot. :)

Watching the reruns on TV Land (Canada), they even censored the word
"fart" back then. No "ass", no "pissed off". Now a days, you hear it
on daytime soap operas!

"What's invisible and smells like carrots? A bunny fart."

Did you check out the other 3 sketches on the right side of the video
(via links)?

BWAH! They don't make 'em like that anymore.

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which
the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn
our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad
for them, it's failing.
