Anyone else think this statement by Beverly Lasalle was funny?

[TVFactFan]

In the ep-"Archie the Hero" when Beverly Lasalle told Archie-"Mr. Bunker, I'm No lady" This ep comes on Tonight at 11pm. I laugh everytime I hear that statement-lol

[MikeL]

i thought it was u knew right then n there she was going take her wig off and scare poor Archie half to death i thought he throw her out right then n there lol.

[Pus$y Galore]

LOVED that character - absolutely adored him/her!

As embarrassing as it is to admit, I STILL tear up when they air the ep where he's murdered.

[TVFactFan]

When Beverly took off the wig, i loved the explosion in the studio audience after he did it, I think that was the only time the audience exploded like that on all in the family. Some guy in the audience was really going wild, u could hear it-lol

I think possibly the only other time was when Sammy Davis smooched Arch before he left. I think it got the longest laugh of the series. Beverly was a very close second though!

I love the ep where Archie wants to play the joke on Pinky and set him up with Beverly.

[MikeL]

[PrettyinPink55]

When Beverly tells Edith he's a transvestite, and Edith says: "Oh, you sure fooled me! You don't even have an accent" :lol:

This whole episode is just classic!!!

THE CHARACTER WAS MURDERED?? I never knew that! So THAT'S what happened to her/him. All these years; I thought she/he was just anothe character that dissapeared and they never mentioned them again, like Frank & Irene, Pinky, Munson, Kelsey & Harry.

How'd she/he get murdered? What were the details?

[An 80s Guy]

I loved that episode the expression on Archie's Face when he pulled of his wig was priceless

[MikeL]

i was so so mad when they did that she schould vanished like everyone else did i would loved see her show on Archie Bunkers place for some reason.

[PrettyinPink55]

They just showed the episode on TVLand tonight where Archie sets up Beverly with one of his frends as a prank! :lol:

She/he got murdered on one of the Christmas shows. He was walking with Mike and they got mugged. I remember when I first saw it back in the 70's. That was a powerful episode because Edith lost her faith in God for awhile.

That episode just breaks my heart!! I think it was a two-parter, right?

[MikeL]

[PrettyinPink55]

No, they don't show it very much. I've only seen it once or twice.

[treky]

I used to watch the show all the time back in the 70s and I don't ever remember that one for some reason.

[ajm1972]

I have the uncut original CBS broadcast of the show and it was a classic.

Love the Phoebe Cates photo!!! I just love Phoebe Cates!!

We don't need to know that you have the CBS ep of this episode, just your COMMENTS about the episode. Thank You

[ajm1972]

I did and I said it was a classic, now you can go back to being a messageboard troll.

I just didn't see how you having the CBS ep had anything to do with the Topic. Stick to the Topic Man this is a TV Discussion Board not Trading.

[Mrs. Periwinkle]

I absolutely loved Beverly LaSalle! Very funny character--that Xmas episode always makes me sad, as well. I haven't seen it in ages, but I remember Mike saying something like, "The only thing I agree with religion is the way that people can turn to God when something goes wrong" to Edith. I really like that quote. :)

[comedyfreak]

Yes, funny it took the Meathead to bring Edith to her senses again. Great episode, it's my second favorite.

[Pug Lover]

When Beverly took off the wig, i loved the explosion in the studio audience after he did it, I think that was the only time the audience exploded like that on all in the family. Some guy in the audience was really going wild, u could hear it-lolThe studio audience also went wild in the season 6 episode"Beverly Rides Again"where Archie sets him up with Pinky.You hear the audience hoot and holler during the closing credits.:lol:

[Holland_Vincent]

I really loved the character too. You really forget how different and groundbreaking the show was. Ah, those were the days!

[MikeL]

i heard that was the only show lori shannen ever did not sure if she did any other shows n died in 1984 not much of acting career kind sad really i liked that charactor though

[Already Gone]

I love that line...The fact that Edith thought it had to do with Transylvania. :rotflmao:

[mrbig]

That was a great episode

Yeah - my apologies to Treky for not getting back to them (been away for a while). Yes - actually though, it wasn't a true mugging, but a gay bashing. The thugs knew Beverly was a transvestite and beat him up for it (which of course, doesn't even mean he was gay - they're two different things). But it really brought it home to people back then that this was going on.
They just aired the two-part ep again on Canadian TVLand during a Christmas marathon over the holidays.

Wonder what other works that actor did?

[OKCRay]

They just showed the episode on TVLand tonight where Archie sets up Beverly with one of his frends as a prank! :lol:

I loved where they were all in the restaurant and Archie asks Edith to accompany Beverly to the rest room. Edith (befuddled as always) asks, "How are we going to do THAT?"

Beverly's classic response: "Sitting down!" :lol: :lol: :lol:

[HelloLarry]

So whatever happened to the actor that played Beverly? Is he still around/still performing? I don't know much about the actors history.

I think the last Pinky episode was in the 9th season where he puts a girl in bed with Archie as a joke. I don't think the character ever appeared on Archie Bunkers Place.

[AB]

Beverly was a pretty funny character, its to bad they killed her off. They
should have let her keep popping up on more of the episodes.
