Harpo Marx!!!

I shouldn't really vote here as i haven't seen Visitor from Italy in years, although i do remember it well, it's one of the 15 episodes of the show i still don't have. But however good it was, it couldn't possibly beat Harpo's guest shot!

Being the oddball I am, I hate the Harpo Marx episode. So Visitor From Italy.

I'm with you Dawsongirl. I don't like the Harpo Marx episode either. I don't like the whole character thing Harpo Marx did in his career, no offense to anyone who likes him, but I don't like the whole silent-let's-chase-girls type of thing.

I haven't seen Visitor from Italy for awhile but it is pretty funny.

Hey, I'm not the only one!

Oh, btw, the more I look at your avatar, the cuter I think that guy is. And I'm not even a football fan!

"Visitor From Italy", but "Harpo Marx" has a lot of wonderful physical comedy.

You know at first i thought it was a young Mel Gibson, from his Mad Max days! But, he had better get some sleep, did you see the circles under that guy's eyes?

lucyfan1983 · 12-13-2002, 03:15 PM

i've only seen half of Visitor From Italy, so i'll have to go with Harpo Marx on this one!

SPLAIN · 12-13-2002, 04:24 PM

It's one of the 15 i'm missing, can't wait to see it again. We always see that clip of Lucy with the pizza over her head, it'll be nice to finally see the set up to that ending!

Your not the first person to say that to me. I have pictures of him on my planner at school at my friends will be looking at them for a little bit and then go, "Hey!"

Harpo.

The Visitor From Italy was a good episode but its not a classic like Harpo Marx. So Harpo Marx all the way on this one.

Lucylover22 · 12-21-2002, 12:14 PM

Definetly Harpo Marx. The episode is one of my favorites!
