TV's Censored Bloopers (May 15, 1981) with host Dick Clark. Star guest Milton Berle, NBC

Dick Clark is the host of this 1981 TV's Censored Bloopers show which was later given different names and was aired until 2003. This show gave viewers a glimpse at television and film outtakes which the public did not normally have chance to see. Other names of this show included: Super Bloopers And Practical Jokes in 1984, All-Time Great TV Censored Bloopers in 1985, All Star Ultra Censored Bloopers in 1995, TV Censored Bloopers 98 in 1998, and Bloopers in 2003). The comedian and actor Milton Berle (Uncle Milton) is the star host. Blooper reels are shown regarding his performances which go way back to the 1960s, 1950s and beyond. Mr. Berle states to Dick Clark and the audience that:

"I think, if I may get serious for a moment. Today's television... the spontaneity is gone in television. I don't think that those days will ever come back." End quote.

In a way his words still apply to this very day. Milton Berle was part of the greatest American comedians. He had such a presence in everything he did. He really was the one in charge.

The actors who happen to flub their words, forget their lines and fall out of character include Steve Allen, Milton Berle, Mariette Hartley, Burt Reynolds, John Ritter, Mills Watson, Gene Wilder, Alan Alda, Valerie Bertinelli, Carol Burnett, Vicki Lawrence, Harvey Korman along with others. Other bloopers are shown regarding shows like MASH, Lobo (The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo), One Day At A Time, Laugh In, Three's Company, Cannonball Run, The Carol Burnett Show along with others.

Produced and recorded by NBC studios on April 10, 1981. Broadcasted May 15, 1981 at 10 PM on NBC. This recording was digitized from a Sanyo V-Cord2 format videotape played on a 1976 Sanyo VTC-8200 VCR. I own more wonderful televised recordings from our past that I plan to share in the near future. Enjoy.
