This is really funny:
25. Battle of the Network Stars
The prelude to the famous Gabe Kaplan-Robert Conrad 200-yard race (not available on YouTube for some reason) when Conrad (NBC's captain) is complaining about an illegal baton exchange or something and legitimately ends up flying off the handle -- with Telly Savalas, Bruce Jenner and Pat Schneider egging him on, no less -- culminating in Conrad crossing just about every line with a tasteless joke about Jews, Greeks and Germans. Once Robert Conrad got going, nobody was safe, folks. Every time I watch this clip, I feel like I just smoked hash that was laced with peyote
Conrad was always good for a Network Stars meltdown, or, if losing, faking an injury.
Also, someone correct me if I'm wrong here - when he says Pat Schneider, is he meaning Pat Harrington, who played Dwayne Schneider on One Day at a Time?
What am I doing asking for help on a series from the 80s on this board?
Surfbu? Alpha? Any of the older posters? |
