Throwback Thursday Comedy Showcase: Rodney Dangerfield at His Best

It's Throwback Thursday again and we're going back 54 years to get another dose of Rodney Dangerfield explaining why he "don't get no respect."

Born Jacob Rodney Cohen on Long Island, Dangerfield (he took the name from a character in a skit on the Jack Benny Show) had a career that went beyond standup comedy to the movies and to his own comedy club, Dangerfield's, in Manhattan.

Here's Rodney delivering one of his classic routines on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1969.

Enjoy!
