Very funny trip down memory lane.
I remember well this very funny show, which if memory serves they showed on public television.
Waits was probably one of the funniest guests ever.
The man just spits out those gems!

Brabon: you are so very correct.

Why his star never got to shine as brightly as it should have is beyond me.

Yep.
I think you nailed it.
It's called "integrity" and there isn't too much of it going around these days.

Waits is no hack. He writes great stuff, year in, year out. And it stands up. Its very visual and gets drunken moods and scenes exactly and its funny as all hell. He has some I don't like.
There are purported artists who have no other kind. Different strokes..., etc.

One of Tom Waits is too many but a hundred wouldn't be enough....idiots and morons relate to him and seeing the way its going, there are sure a bunch of them. There's always room for his clowning around....outside somewhere.

Martin Mull has a strange physical condition in reallife. It is much like a natural lobotomy. He admitted in a 1978 Newsweek article that he never yelled in reallife. My brother-in-law has a similar physical condition and when he was a kid my brother-in-law was taken to a neurologist!

I am pretty sure that it is not canned. Fernwood was filmed in front of a live audience if I am not mistaken.

puremagic1: The "presenters" (?), as you called them, were actually the "host," Martin Mull and his "sidekick," Fred Willard. The show, "Fernwood Tonight," was a total SPOOF! So everything Mull and Willard did was making fun of talk shows. And so what they did WAS funny.
mtemrich and mysterywhiteboy45: This was indeed done before a real, live audience. Absolutely NO canned laughter. That was part of the true beauty of this show.
I always watched "Fernwood Tonight," and always loved it!

Ok then that makes a little more sense. However i didnt pick up on the fact that it was a piss take. Which may reflect on my own sense of humor or the talent of the hosts.
An Australian Duo Called Roy and HG do a similar thing that i really enjoy and am deffinetly sure is funny.
