I got the Dean Martin celebrity roast of Carroll O'Connor on VHS from
ebay in the mail today. It was great to see Carroll O'Connor roasted
and properly honored by great people in show-biz. Only knock on the
roast is that Jean, Rob, Sally, Norm Lear and Mel Tolkin did not
appear on the roast. The 1973 president of CBS at the time did roast
Carroll but it would have been better if the AITF crew was there.
The roast was excellent though, Don Rickles and Carroll's PR manager
were fantastic. Carroll's PR manger did the roast pretending he was
as drunk or drunker than Dean Martin, it was hilarious. I also got
Redd Foxx's roast as a bonus but Carroll did not appear on the roast
even though Redd was at Carroll's. However, the actress who played
Teresa on AITF roasted Redd.

I won it from ebay for 36 dollars. I guess that's a little expensive but I love Archie and AITF so I will be glad to buy everything that has to do with it especially videos.
