The legend has spoken. No off limit areas in the vocabulary of Mr. Hope. He's the source of Robin Williams' inspiration for free speech hollywood monologue style. Serious but deep comedic delivery of a speech that only he could do it. Bob Hope will always be a legend in my book. Nothing but love for this man.

This was the year when seemingly no one gave a damn. About a third of the winners (including Orson Welles) didn't even bother to show up, the presenters were indifferent, and the crowd barely seemed to be awake most of the time.

Until that final shot of the audience, it sounds like Hope was playing to 25 people in a junior-high school gym in Temecula.

The tepid response to Hope's monologue (including a few boos) is indicative of the times and the days of the Generation Gap. Mayor Yorty. Sinatra's retirement. A declaration not a demonstration.

Look at the end of the video, the audience on the back seats didn't even clap their hands. What the fuck was wrong with those people? Are they pissed off or was it because the 'new generation' gap?

The jokes were great, but the audience was terrible. I guess the old adage is true: show business people make the worst audience. Nobody like Bob Hope anymore.

@Jeepman89 there’s comedians that’s in the greatest of all time category like Richard Pryor that had people like Paul Mooney writing for him it’s not that uncommon and there nothing wrong with it as along as they’re not outright stealing other comedians jokes, some comedians are just able to make jokes work with their timing and delivery something that the writers of said jokes probably couldn’t do
