Well, I made it through the whole thing but it was appalling listening to all those horrible, horrible jokes.

No different than what people like Carlos Mencia do now.
I didn't find it offensive, just not funny.

I didn't see anything wrong with it except that it wasn't funny (maybe back then it was, but now...no).

Racism is awesome! Just watch "All in the Family" if you don't believe me.

Guys like us we had it made

I miss Benny Hill. He and his troupe were fantastic.

Benny Hill's chase scenes were THE BEST!

outeast: From what I know about him I took it the same way too. That's why I didn't find it offensive. His whole deal was being out there. Look up some of his quotes, especially his presidential run quotes. They are GREAT.
