From: Bill Hahn//\\ Are we talking about the Tony Clifton who was a character on the spoof TV shows of years back---America Tonight (possibly wrong name) with Martin Mull. Oh, if only the would re air those episodes and the Mary Hartman ones from whence it came. Bill Hahn |

24 Nov 04 - 04:51 PM (#1338071) Subject: RE: BS: Why don't folks rave about Tony Clifton? From: Bill Hahn//\\ Sounds just like something the fictional Tony Clifton of America Tonight would have said---him being---as he billed himself---huge in the tri county area and appearing regularly at a Holiday Inn near you. All the while dressed in his tacky blue tux and doing a bad imitation of a bad lounge singer. Funny stuff. Bill Hahn |

24 Nov 04 - 05:54 PM (#1338142) Subject: RE: BS: Why don't folks rave about Tony Clifton? From: Bill Hahn//\\ Actually--my error. The show was America2Night and also Fernwood Tonight---the character's name was Tony Rolletti. The actor was also a recurring character ---years later---on Frasier. Bill Hahn |

27 Nov 04 - 12:34 AM (#1340282) Subject: RE: BS: Why don't folks rave about Tony Clifton? From: Little Hawk I fail to see what's funny about it, Spaw. Tony would never have nothing to say. Never. He's never at a loss for words. That must have been some pathetic wannabe pretending to be Tony Clifton. |

27 Nov 04 - 07:47 PM (#1340828) Subject: RE: BS: Why don't folks rave about Tony Clifton? From: Bill Hahn//\\ Have you all read Zmuda's book? Just great---Andy was one of a kind---and Clifton was None of a kind. They both became him at times. The one thing I still do not understand---seriously---was REM's tribute song to Andy. Never got it. Bill Hahn |
