Wow!

Great Find Brian. That Magnum T-shirt that TS gave Bob was really cool. I wonder if any of those are stil lfloating around anywhere...

Oh, that was neat to watch! Two legends! Nobody's told more bad jokes in a funny way than Bob Hope! :)

Thanks for the link Brian!

Really great to see that. Thanks Brian. It's clearly unscripted and there are some awkward moments when they don't really know what they're supposed to be talking about. Still, great to see.

What I really want to see is Mr. T giving Bob a hula lesson!!!

Enjoyable but at the same time, awkward!

What episode were the guys rehearsing for?
Sharpen your investigative wit!
Clues:
Look at what they are wearing, when the air date was and what Tom said about what he did during Volley ball.
good luck

also if I remember correctly TS gave Bob Hope a Tigers cap and said something about this bringing the Tigers luck and they did win the world series that year. See what the power of TS and Hope could do

Dolores Hope (Bob's widow) died today at the age of 102. They say laughter helps with longevity and when you are married to Bob you are guaranteed to laugh!

Very serendipidous that the Bob Hope clip should surface a tthis time.

RIP Mrs. Hope...

Good clip, though as mentioned - a little awkward at points. The movie Tom had just filmed in the UK they were referring to is 'Lassiter', not the strongest of TS's movies, but still good. Very hard to find on DVD though, got mine in Czech format.

I noticed that it has a surprisingly good rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I've never seen it, but now I want to. I guess I won't expect much from it if I happen to get my hands on a copy - that way I won't be disappointed.

We also learn that Selleck wears a 42L in his suit size, and that he was just about to begin filming the movie "Lassiter."
