"Well, you remember the film they showed us in class." "There's all kinds of tests they have to perform on a newborn child." " So" " That's true." "Ah!" "There's my favourite couple."

" I'd like to run a "couple compatibility" check." "What the heck is that?" "You know,Jerry, it's tough being a single girl in the big city." "You meet all kinds of phoneys and creeps."

" No." "No, I do not!" "Look, hey, hold it." "Anyway, that is just a small fraction of the hundreds of times..." "I've been intimate with women." "We're exaggerating a little, aren't we,Jerry?" "The record only shows 2 1 sexual intimacies." " There you are." " This doesn't jibe with my figures." "Okay, sweetie?" "Jerry, the statistics don't paint the picture of a mature man." "Twelve times, you ignored your date at a party... to flirt with a more attractive woman." "1 69 times, you feigned interest when a woman was talking about her career." "On 1 7 occasions, you lied to women... telling them you were really into sushi and Meryl Streep movies." "Make that 1 8 times." "Wh-Wh-Where do they get these figures?" "As you can see, Jerry... it would be pointless for you and I to go out." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, I'm gonna get one of those machines and see how well you come off!" " Okay?" " Goodnight,Jerry." "It's early yet." "Maybe you can still get lucky in a bar." "Like you did last Thursday." "Hello, Beverly?" " Yeah?" " Hi." "This is Jerry Stone." "We met the other night at Dave's party." " Oh."

"Perhaps a member of British royalty." "Well, our Bullshit team has unearthed... spectacular new evidence which suggests... that Jack the Ripper was, in fact... the Loch Ness monster." "Is it possible that Nessie... murdered five streetwalkers before returning to Loch Ness?" "Using undiscovered evidence... we've pieced together the events leading up to the first murder."

"Mind you, don't you be steppin' on my feet now." "Ooh!" "Aren't you in an hurry!" "Now, will you be careful." "Not so rough, da-- Wait a min" "Is this the way it happened?" "Was Jack the Ripper, in fact, a 60-foot sea serpent from Scotland?" "Did I take this job for a quick buck?" "We may never know the answers to these questions." "Next week" "Come on." "To recap the three movies that we reviewed this week... here on Critics Corner..." "Marc and I both gave a big thumbs up..." " to the new Swedish film directed by, uh" " Olaf Svensen." "Olaf Svensen, called The Winter of My Despondency." " Haunting abstract symbolism." " It's arty crap." "Jonathan and I did split, however... on the newest teenage romp called Frat Slobs." "Jonathan, I think, thought it to be... a light, frothy souffle..." " sizzling with youthful energy." " That I did." "On the other hand, I thought it was pond scum." "You're an albino." "What the hell do you know?" "We have a new feature we'd like to introduce on Critics Corner... we hope you'll enjoy." "We call it "Real Life Reviews"... in which we critique the life of an average person just like you." "Jonathan will begin with a review of the life of Harvey Putnik." " No." "Pitnik." " Pitnik, of Skokie, Indiana." " Illinois." " Illinois." " Harvey Pitnik of Skokie, Illinois." " Bernice." "Bernice, come here." "They're talking about me on the television." " What?" " Come here." "Harvey Pitnik would seem to have all the ingredients..." " for a successful life." " You'd think so." " So why does he fail so miserably?" " I don't know." "I think the problem is with Harvey himself." " What the hell is this?" " You're right." "It is Harvey." "Very good,Jonathan." "It is Harvey." "So, we're supposed to care about this Harvey Pitnik?" "Why?" "I mean, it takes him 30 years to develop any character at all... and by the time he does, who cares?" " They're crucifying me." " It's hardly worth the wait." " He didn't like Gandhi either." " Let me show you." "Here's a scene from last year as Harvey is coming home from work." "Oh." "Hi, Scraps." " Hi, Dad." " Hi, kids." " How did they do this?" " Hi, honey." "Hi, dear." "Ooh." "Potatoes." "I didn't cons-- I didn't consent for this to be on TV." " Dinner'll be ready in five minutes." " Okay." " Some exciting home life, huh?" " And it goes on like that... tediously, day in and day out." " Where's the love?" " Where's the passion?" "Where's the examination of one's own existence?" "This is a poor excuse for a life." "I give Harvey Pitnik a-- a big thumbs down." " Thumbs down?" " I give him a thumbs down too." "But I didn't hate Harvey quite as much as you, Jonathan." "Oh, granted, his life was a miserable waste of time... but I rather enjoyed the Kafkaesque touches." "Here's a loser trapped in a dead-end job... and a-- a loveless marriage." " How do they know that?" " Couldn't they have done anything to make this man human?" "Think of the money it took to bring him into the world." " A ton!" " To feed him and to clothe him and then to educate him." "And after all that, what have you got?" " You've got a big bore!" " A dull clod!" "An empty suit." "And another thing..." "I was always one step ahead of this guy's life." " There just were no surprises!" " No." "Wait a minute." "What about the ending of his life?" "That came as a surprise." " Ending?" " I saw that coming a mile away!" " I didn't." " What ending?" " The high blood pressure." "The lack of exercise." " True." "Uh-huh." " The bad diet." " Of course." "By the time he finally has his heart attack in front of the TV, big deal!" " Heart attack?" "Heart attack?" " It's such a mundane way to go." "What are they talking about?" "A heart attack?" "I didn't have a" "Wouldn't it have been more dramatic if, say, he'd fallen down an elevator shaft?" " He should've died years earlier." " Maybe in a submarine accident." " Harvey?" "Oh, my God!" " Possibly a giant squid." " Something to add a little science fiction to it." " I'm calling an ambulance." " I'm calling an ambulance!" " A tragic waste, but who cares?" "Oh, I see our time is up." "We want to thank you very much... for joining us on Critics Corner." "Hope you'll be back next week when we'll have an aisle seat reserved just for you." "Bye-bye." "There's so many things he could've done." "He could've had a better haircut." "We now return to the 1957 film..." "Amazon Women on the Moon... starring Bill Thomas and Buzzy Clark." "There will be no further interruptions." "Well, here we are on the moon." "This place gives me the willies." "Think we'll run into any moon men?" "Not intelligent life as you and I know it, Butch." "If there are any Martians, I'll bet they speak the universal language-- do-re-mi!" "You remember the space oath you took at the academy, Blackie?" ""I will not exploit other worlds for personal gain."" "Look at that." "Follow me, men." "Keep your eyes open." "Selma!" "Hey, dig that crazy full moon." "That's a full Earth, Butch." "Remember where we are." "Zowie!" "This is only a hunch, but" "Steve!" "What are you doing?" "You're committing suicide!" "Just as I thought." "The moon has an atmosphere similar to Earth's." "Take off your helmets, boys." "Good old HO." "Steve, fill me in." "How'd you figure it out?" "Seems like Loony figured it out first." "That's my Loony, a regular Einstein." " Look!" "Are your parties dull and boring?" "Well, why not liven them up... with the snack food that's sweeping America." "Mmm!" "Say, Mike, this is some great pate." "It has such a unique flavour." "It's more than just an ordinary pate, Bill." "Watch." "Whoa!" "What the" " You know, I never saw an appetizer do that before." "Well, you never tried Silly Pate before!" "Not only is it fun at parties, it's low in saturated fats." "And look." "It picks up your favourite comic strip!" "I'm eating Doonesbury." "And I'm eating Beetle Bailey." "You'll never have a dull, lifeless party again... with Silly Pate." "Available in all fine gourmet shops and toy stores everywhere." "It's time, Mrs Pitnik." "Do I have to?" "Yeah." "We need the room again at 4.00." "Come on." "I-Is Har-Harvey here?" " Yeah." "He's in repose." "He looks great." " Oh!" "Okay, let's move along." "That's right." "Just relax, Mrs Pitnik." "You're young." "You'll" " You'll meet someone." "Send the kids to camp." "That's what I would do." "Okay, family up front, on the left." "Well, I guess that's it." "Everything's taken care of." "Everything." "And the buffet?" "To die." "Hey, Scooter." "Cute stuff." "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a wake." "So let's have fun with it, huh?" "Everybody, have a great time." "Welcome to the O'Leary Funeral Home... where many of the nation's top comedians have gathered to roast our guest of honour... the late Harvey Pitnik!" "Please welcome..." "Rip Taylor!" "Slappy White!" "Jackie Vernon!" "Henny Youngman!" "Charlie Callas!" "And our roast master-- Mr Steve Allen!" "And here he is, our man of the hour" "Mr Harvey Pitnik!" "There's Harvey!" "Thank you, ladies and mourners." "That's all right, Harvey." "Don't get up." "Anyway, be that as it may-- and I doubt if it was-- tonight we are here to pay tribute to a close, personal friend..." "Harvey Pupik" " I'm sorry." "Uh, Pitnik." "Harvey Pitnik." "Harvey was a man, my friends, who was the same in life... as he is in death-- a stiff!" "But all seriousness aside, we are going to lay two things to rest" "Harvey Pitnik and the rumour that Charlie Callas is funny." "Ladies and gentlemen, a very funny man, Charlie Callas." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Harvey, keep it down!" "Today, ladies and gentlemen, we're here to pay homage to the late Harvey Potemkin" "Peshtabil" " Poshbulv-- whatever." " Who cares?" "Does it matter now?" " No, no." "And if Harvey were alive today, he'd be a very sick man." "We had" " I'm sorry to make this announcement." "We had two disappointments tonight" "Milton Berle could not make it and Rip Taylor could." " Ladies and gentlemen, Rip Taylor." " All right." "Thank you so much." "Thank you so much." "Thank you." "Thank you so much, Steve." "Charlie said, "Harvey, keep it down." Thank you." "Oh, well, there goes that act." "The president couldn't be here, Harvey, so he sent a wire." "Tell 'em." "It's a-- Never mind." "What's this, an audience or a funeral?" "Now, pay attention, please." "But I'm a little nervous because Harvey was a personal friend of mine... and there's not a person in this room that Harvey Pitnik did not touch." "I must say, he touched me for 40 bucks and Steve for 20." "Folks, I don't dance." "This is it, you see." "But I do feel for his widow, Bernice." "That was a romantic marriage." "She learned everything about sex from a manual." "Emanuel was their gardener." "I'm sorry." "I better wrap it up now, folks." "'Cause you know the old axiom in show business-- "get off quick."" "Like Harvey on his wedding night." "Could you die?" "I gotta go." "Goodbye." "Thank you so much." "Thank you, folks." "I'm thrilled to be here tonight to pay tribute... to the late Harvey Pitnik." "But enough about Harvey." "Take my wife." "Please." "Why do Jewish divorces cost so much?" "They're worth it." "Why do Jewish guys die before their wives?" "They want to." "And that's what I think of you, Harvey." "Thank you, Henny Youngman, for that trip down memory lane." "And now" "But seriously." "Henny, you were never funnier... and it's a shame." "But I was asked to say a couple of words about Harvey." "How about "ugly" and "cheap"?" "Harvey wrote his will on his cock... and his lawyer said it would not stand up in court." " Okay, Mrs Pitnik." "You're on." " What?" " You're on." " Oh, no." "Oh, no." "I really can't" " You're the widow." "You've got to give Harvey's rebuttal." " No, no, I can't go up there." " I can't do this." " But in conclusion, I'd like to say, congratulations, Harvey." "Rigor mortis is the closest you ever come to a hard-on in 1 5 years." "I thank you." "Harvey himself is gonna throw in his two cents... as soon as we take 'em off his eyelids." "I don't get it." "I don't get it." "And now, for the rebuttal on behalf of our guest of honour, his lovely widow, Bernice." "And nothing's changed, Harvey." "She's still gonna be doing all the talking." "Bernice Pitnik!" "Lovely woman." "Thank you, Merv-- I mean, Steve." "That's quite all right." "Now, well, I would like to inject a serious note... as, uh, Henny Youngman did earlier." "I want to say to..." "Harvey, my late husband... as I look down at you... lying there motionless..." "I can only think of one thing-- our wedding night." "I'll never forget my-- my last moments with..." "Harvey... as I-- as I took him into my arms... and I whispered those three little words:" ""Sign the will."" " Great." " But seriously..." "I'm glad to see Slappy White here today." "Now at least I know my hubcaps are safe." "And Rip Taylor, is that a toupee... or did a beaver curl up and die on your head?" "As I look at Henny Youngman today, I'm not so sure we're burying the right guy." "At last... the greatest album of love songs ever recorded." "You'll want to share them with someone special."
