Mr. Saturday Night -- Buddy Young was the comic's comic, beloved by everyone. Now, playing to miniscule crowds in nursing homes, it seems like everybody but Buddy realizes that he should retire.

From his earliest days headlining in his parents' living room to the golden days as America's favorite television comic, Buddy Young, Jr. remains in a class by himself. With the help of his brother/manager, who's always ready to catch him when he falls, Buddy's hilarious back-stage climb-to-the-middle is studded with witty one liners and rapid-fire routines that will always leave you laughing even as they touch your soul.
