I used to watch when I was a kid.  I loved this show.

RIP

Say goodnight, Dick.

Say goodnight, Dick.

I think that was probably the first comedy show I ever watched and absolutely loved it.

I wasn't allowed to watch it when i was a kid... my parents said it was 'filth'.   

RIP Dick.

Mine too! I loved it!
