The Gong Show: Two Girls Eating Popsicles
6 Comments Published by Joel November 6th, 2006 in Food. Share ThisApparently this clip caused NBC to scuttle The Gong Show, though it continued in syndication. It’s understandable—I’d flood NBC’s switchboard with complaints about Phyllis Diller’s lack of a sense of humor, too.

aaaaaaaaaand I’m spent.
I’m actually old enough to remember when this originally aired.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll go sponge off.
This was the zenith of american entertainment. The single greatest use of the medium. Chuck, we salute you.
I saw a TV show that was on all sorts of clips. They interviewed Chuck Barris and this actually got by the censors. They had no clue what these girls were doing (like Phyllis Diller I guess) so they let it go. Chuck was shocked they let them air it.
How come the 70’s got this, and we get Two and a Half Men?
