I was trying to find the bit on Conan’s Late Night show where they sent Triumph to the American Idol tryouts in Hawaii (I guess it’s not there anymore since it’s on his “Best of” DVD,) but I did enjoy the classic Star Wars Nerds bit. I sadly also couldn’t find many of his classic clips, like the first time he was on Hollywood Squares, or the 2nd time he went to Westminster. While wandering around, I also decided to try to find the infamous “Dating Game” clip that’s been the subject of a lot of speculation here recently (not successful) but instead I discovered another infamous clip: The ‘You Fool’ episode of Hollywood Squares (many versions, you can search for it yourself on YT.) What other famous episodes are there? Off the top of my head, I can think of a couple: [Excited Price is Right contestant flashes Bob Barker](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fM4xSIdVDNA) [Johnny Carson sets a record for longest studio audience sustained laughter](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Qqy_N9KaG4) [Jerry Lawler slaps Andy Kaufman on Letterman](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kv73yzYuE_M) And if you’ve never seen it, a future classic: [Jizz in my pants.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLnWf1sQkjY) (Dick in a Box is possibly more famous, but I think this one is way better.) …and the answer: [Puke in my Mouth](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoBCAs2NS54&feature=related). ---

LOLOL, at the end of the link to Puke in my mouth, they spliced the two songs together to make Jizz in my Mouth. 😃 ---

A friend of mine was on Dick Clark’s [some amount of dollars] _Pyramid_ game show in the late 1970s. According to her, when asked what “he” was going to do with “his” winnings, “he” said “he” was going to use them to get a sex-change operation. Which “he” did. I’d sure love to see a clip of that one, if it exists. ---

Hmmm…I checked, but it looks like the episode of Jonny Quest with the line “you heathen monkeys” was censor-bleeped. ---

I’d sure love to see a clip of that one, if it exists. A bunch of **Pyramid** episodes are lost to history due to [“wiping”](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiping#The_.2410.2C000.2F.2420.2C000_Pyramid_.28CBS.2FABC.2C_1973-1980.29), the recycling of videotapes. Happened to game shows more than any other genre. Depending on when it was recorded, it may be gone forever. This one’s pretty infamous: [Crispin Glover on David Letterman](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALapHYNSmoA). This video’s not the whole interview, but it’s enough to get the gist. ---
