Heartwarming / Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In

Go To

  • From the 1968 Christmas Episode:
    Dan Rowan: You know what would make this the perfect Christmas?
    Dick Martin: What's that?
    Dan Rowan: Keep Bob Hope in Hollywood and let the troops visit him.
  • Season four's 3rd episode proved that even after Goldie Hawn had left, everyone in Laugh-In still loved her warmly, even after the drenching she got from earlier that episode and knowing CFG's hand in that, she still proved she had her charm and loved every minute of it. It says a lot that Goldie made Dan slightly laugh and smile each time they interacted and by extension, everyone around her.
  • Season six has one. It starts with Jud Strunk in a western sketch looking like he's about ready to be hanged, with Willie Tyler the one doing it and Brian Bressler his helper, but after the rope's put on Strunk, Tyler instead decides to play jumprope with it with Bressler doing the jumping and Strunk with no problem at all. Say what you will about it, but even in its final season Laugh-In does provide warm spots like it did back in the last few seasons.
  • Real Life example: After Arte Johnson’s death in 2019, Ruth Buzzi tweeted “And yes, I do believe in the Hereafter.”
