Say Goodnight, Dick

A review of the new DVD set of the best of the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, the infamous CBS show from the late 1960s which was cancelled by the network for political reasons. The new release includes bits that were censored and never shown, as well as a batch of great musical performances, by both the SmoBros and their musical guests, who were a Who's Who of 1960s rock.

Trivia-Tom and Dick were both born on...Governors Island in New York Harbor. However, they have no recollection of their time spent there, as their Dad was transferred off the island when they were both less than 5 years old.
