"I just finished my first book.............Now, I'm gonna read another one."
Watched a documentary on him and Dangerfield said his first stand up on TV was to air while he was working as a door to door aluminum siding salesman. He asked a home owner if he could watch the guys TV to see himself on the tube.

Rodney with Carson is by far my all time favorite. Seen them all a million times.

He was a comedy icon , he really carved a niche for himself with his delivery and nervous habits like adjusting his tie all the time . Comedy gold he was .

He could never make it with that routine today. An angry mod of militant lesbians and #metoo protesters would be out front protesting his "degradation of women".

Sadly true...illustrating just how backasswards our nation has become.

And he had a large amount of material. The current crop can't compete...

Another of the great Borscht Belt comics from the 50's and 60's. Lots of really good comics from that era and the resort scene.
Correct that he would be vilified by many of the "justice" movements today based on his material. IMHO, we have become too thin skinned and too sensitive.

A good illustration of how good late night TV used to be...and how much it sucks today.

Wow, this is terrible material.
Has aged like prune juice. This dad humor would not even make it past a comedy club today. Total cringe

What's wrong with dad jokes?
![]() Every form of entertainment ages. Rodney's is not different but he was funny for the time. His career didn't really get going until his mid 50s. I'm currently re watching Boardwalk Empire and the singing and music is incredible. This lady is amazing!
