People are Funny: the Movie

[TLEberle]

Could we perhaps not have a fifty-page thread of every appearance of a game show in a feature film?

I don't remember the address of it but about  ten years ago there was a website devoted to game shows seen elsewhere, so you could find all of the instances of a particular game show as seen in fleeting glances or indeed the main point of the plot, or even fictional game shows where an episode would focus on how the characters did.

/the chances of them doing well are about on par with it being Lupus.

A good subject for a biopic might be Paul Lynde. That was one unhappy queen.

The best thing about "People Are Funny" is The Vagabonds.   Having said that though, even though their blackface scene is done as an in-joke (you know-- "The network suits are so dumb they don't think there's anything suspicious about a guy who talks like Rochester, and sings like Louis Prima?!?"), it's still pretty cringe-worthy.

I think this might be it:

Okay, I have watched the movie. It's pretty dreary for a comedy. I didn't crack a smile until about an hour in and those gags are awfully visual for a radio show!
