She might've fooled me, but she didn't fool Mother

Subject: The Tush Show

Any other old-timers remember the Tush Show on Ted Turner's station in the late 70s? Low production values, but it had some pretty funny stuff, most of it intentionally funny. The only people on it who went on to bigger things in show biz were the host, Bill Tush, and Jan Hooks, later of Saturday Night Live, etc.

A lot of it is sorta Webb-like, such as this sketch.

Actually, Terry & Bonnie Turner also went on to write for SNL during the wonderful Hooks/Hartman period when it was as consistently funny as it's ever been to me. And they created 3rd Rock From The Sun & That 70s Show. They ain't hurting for ca$h! But I'll point to Tush as their best work ever. It's tied with early SCTV for most laffs with the least budget in my mind.

	Didnt Bonnie Tyler have a big song about 31 years ago? trying to remember which one it was. Seems like it was popular for a while.

Go ahead and join up, unless you're scared of the funny lil word puzzle aka omatic's new CAPCHA check. Anyone called The Tush Show should be a member, so to speak.
