Dean Martin introduces Jackie Vernon, who performs his sad-sack stand-up routine; and then does his slide show clicker bit. In living color on NBC. Dec. 28, 1967.
in 1965, 24 years old, freshly 'married', my wife and myself sat in a bar in Detroit one night watching/listening to, adoring Jackie Vernon...we also got to sit in a bar in Chicago and fly into wonderland as Shekky Greene tore the place up...thanks guys...happy Easter etc...OMski
I have a notion to second that emotion ! I have fond memories of watching him on a wide variety of shows as a kid in the 60s & as a teen in the 70s ! Very talented fellow !! :-)
Jackie cracks me up just looking at him. I love watching these comedians from back in the 60's -70's. They were each so different. Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Crosby, Allen King and many others. And I would usually see them for the first time on Ed Sullivan. Thanks for putting this up.
I was just watching him on The Ed Sullivan Show on Decades TV. He was great! I remember watching this show with my Dad and my older brother. We still talk about his "Get a Guide" routine! It's classic!Thanks for posting this!
My family would always go to my mothers parents house for sunday dinner... After dinner we would gather around the living room console (color!) tv and watch Ed Sullivan... That was my introduction to Jackie - I was mesmerized and fascinated by his "clicker"...
Wow. Rodney picked up the vibe from him. What a pro. I don't want to send this to anyone else cause I want to tell these jokes. A couple spoons at the dinner table as a clicker.
I was 12 years old when this aired. Saw it with my folks and my brothers. We all roared at the slide show routine.....We talked about Guido for years !
@@alanmorris7669 I suppose he's more remembered today for his "Frostie" voice over work than his stand up. Which is understandable, since those "Frostie" specials he appeared in are shown annually during the Yuletide season. I think he was one of he best stand up comics of the 60s & 70s ! My family enjoyed his routines SO much !
"You're probably wondering what changed me from the prosaic deadbeat I was to the effervescent gayblade I am today." What a great deadpan comedian. Vastly underrated. I used to see him of the Ed Sullivan show Sunday nights.
How in the world did you get your hands on THIS? I have thought about that slideshow-thing off and on for years. The, a couple of nights ago, Vernon was mentioned in passing on _The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel._ So I went looking for him on Spotify, which has a surprisingly deep inventory. However, there was nothing by Vernon.
WHEN I WAS A CHILD. FOR A TIME WE LIVED IN A HENERY-J . THEN WE (I THINK) MOVED UP!! AND WE ALL LIVED IN A KIASER, THE SEATS FOLDED DOWN, ALMOST FLAT. LIFE WAS GOOD!! UNTILL THEY GOT A 40s FORD SEDAN. THEN MY HOME WAS THE PACKAGE TRAY. TRAVLED WITH A CARNIVAL TILL I WENT TO LIVE WITH MY AUNT AND UNCLE.

@@yankee2666 I don't believe Rodney ever did this! Perhaps Jackie Vernon and Rodney (sorta) looked alike! They were BOTH OUTSTANDING COMEDIC TALENT, though!
