"You realize if John Lennon and Yoko Ono were to ever have a child, they would be the first couple to give birth to a Japanese Beatle!" That quote was from Dan Rowan during the Joke Wall segment of this "Laugh-In" ep done a few years before Sean Lennon was born. This show also did many jokes about the events of 1970, not a year that was considered good. But in saying some positive things about the year, Dan & Dick mentioned many of the guests they had since the previous fall (incidentally, they didn't mention returning cast member Goldie Hawn as among them) such as Zero Mostel who had an extra sketch presented here with him as a store proprietor and Ruth Buzzi as a customer. Wasn't as funny as the actual sketches on his show but amusing enough. There also seemed to be some extra cut-ins from Johnny Carson, Rich Little, Carol Channing, and Phyllis Diller. But the main guest star was William F. Buckley, the founder of the National Review and conservative columnist. He didn't do any sketches, just appeared with Dan & Dick at their news desk with the cast as audience asking him questions and him answering with replies that was hard to tell if they were scripted or not. Some were amusing, some not. Lily Tomlin appeared as both her fast talking lady who always dithered from one sentence to another and as Ernestine who still called him William "Fbuckley"! I got a lot of the topical jokes during the 1970 tribute segment. So on that note, this was an entertainingly enough ep of "Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In".
