| 1 | * Two words: [[LargeHam "ED SULLIVAAAAAN!!!"]] |
| 2 | ** Near the end, Harry [=MacAfee=] chimes in with "Ed, I love you!" That it came out of [[CampGay Paul Lynde's]] mouth is funny enough, but it gets better: on June 12, 1960, Lynde and company sang "Hymn for a Sunday Evening" on the ''real [[Series/TheEdSullivanShow Ed Sullivan Show]]!'' Yes, he actually said "I love you" to ''Ed's face!'' |
| 3 | * Albert sneaking his speed pill to a conductor, who then conducts Tchaikovsky's ''Sleeping Beauty'' at a very fast speed...the poor ballet dancers! |
| 4 | ** "Uh, thank you, Russian dancers, for that brilliant and unexpected bit of burlesque." |
| 5 | ** This is even more hilarious to ballet enthusiasts, who are well aware that the part of ''Sleeping Beauty'' being performed is the infamously difficult "Rose Adagio" -- which is widely reputed to be ''the most difficult bit of choreography in classical ballet''. The poor ballet dancers, indeed...!! |
| 6 | * Paul Lynde pretty much steals every scene he's in! |
