Not Necessarily the News

June edition (1x6)

Data emisji: Cze 05, 1983

This one was first broadcast in June, 1983. There are funny gimmicks featuring religious and political figures of the early 1980's. I have always considered the true star of this series to be President Ronald Reagan. This episode includes a funny little bit about Margaret Thatcher, At least 3 airline gags, a retrograde satire set to a song by Peter Allen, and a hilarious sketch where Danny Breen auditions to be a Richard Nixon impersonator. Series Regulars are: Anne Bloom, Danny Breen, Rich Hall, Mitchell Laurance, Audrie Neenan and Stuart Pankin. This was the 6th episode of the series and it is still funny today. FOOTNOTE: The music playing while Anne Bloom flirts with President Reagan on the shore is "Broad Street Strut" by The Dixie Dregs, from their 1980 album "Dregs Of The Earth."
