Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Henny Youngman on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1965

The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. 

The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. 

On June 14, 1959, comedian Henny Youngman made one of his many appearances on the show. He delivers his one-liners so fast that you may have to watch the clip more than once to catch all the punch lines.

Enjoy!
