Bless her heart - she's no Champagne Lady!



OH MY JUDICE...

Incidentally - this program is why I learned to play the organ (a Thomas organ - just like Bob Ralston on the Welk Show) - which brought me to my tenure as mall organist at White Folks Mall in Springfield, IL.

Lol, I saw this on the tube the other night. How did I miss her tiny little, baby doll hands? Mesmerized by the forehead, I guess.

This sketch, as well as a recent Hall and Oates parody on SNL, makes me wonder the demographics of SNL. Would anyone under 40 get how odd and dorky The Lawrence Welk Show seemed to kids who saw their parents watch it in, what, the late 60s-early 70s? Would 20somethings even know who Hall and Oates were/are?

Compare the Benoit Mindset of the Class of 2012:
