Shouldn't every Friday be "Black Friday"

"Here come da Judge!"
(I think that was a recurring comedy sketch on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-in back in the late 1960s early 1970s.)

Flip Wilson?

Flip Wilson?

I think that's right, Mike, but I seem to recall that Sammy Davis Jr. also used to do it sometimes. Maybe those two guys were regulars on the show in different seasons.

A running gag, at least. Like "Do the name Ruby Begonia strike a familiar note?"
It was hilarious, kids. Trust me, I'm old.

I associate the judge and the Begonia with Sammy Davis Jr. I think he and Flip were both frequent visitors rather than regulars, and Flip soon had his own comedy-variety show.

Look that up in your Funk'n'Wagnall's.

Thanks for some of your recollections about Laugh-In, Jer. It all seems so long ago, and my memories are not very clear. I don't remember Theresa Graves at all, even after going online to look her up. (I think Judy Carne was the woman on that show who most aroused my teenage lust. ) I do remember a lot of the catchphrases from the show, like your Funk & Wagnall's reference, that caught on nationally. I suppose that could happen more easily back then when almost everyone who watched TV had only 3 choices in any time slot, from the 3 networks (4 if you lived where there was a PBS station). "Sock it to me." "Ring my chimes." "Bet your sweet bippy." "Blow in my ear and I'll follow you anywhere." "Want a walnetto?"

The only black knife I'm carrying this week is an old Imperial scout:
