Greatest studio audience laugh moment

This is an out of body experience...

 

I think this bit is also a contender:

 

Very much so!

 

from Wikipedia
"Sammy's Visit," first broadcast in February 1972, is a particularly notable episode, whose famous episode-ending scene produced the longest sustained audience laughter in the history of the show. Guest star Sammy Davis, Jr. plays himself in the episode. Davis leaves a briefcase behind in Archie's taxi (Archie is moonlighting as a cab driver) and goes to the Bunker home to pick it up. After hearing Archie's racist remarks, Davis asks for a photograph with him. At the moment the picture is taken, Davis suddenly kisses a stunned Archie on the cheek. The ensuing laughter went on for so long that it had to be severely edited for network broadcast, as Carroll O'Connor still had one line ("Well, what the hell — he said it was in his contract!") to deliver after the kiss. (The line is usually cut in syndication.)

 

There was a Fred Allen and Jack Benny bit on radio that got the audience laughing literally uncontrollably. It's just around 5 minutes in on this clip, but the whole clip is great as you hear the two keep wratcheting up the audience as the bit builds.

And nowhere on this list should it include, "Jimmy Fallon and Horatio Sanz Too Stoned To Deliver Their Lines on SNL".

But apparently THEY thought it was hilarious.
For some reason.

 

the Seinfeld moment when Elaine.....

 

Never saw that before. Looked like the room completely broke apart!

 

I feel there's gotta be at least one moment from Everybody Loves Raymond? That studio audience was a little nuts...(a little too nuts sometimes?) Not sure if there are any moments from modern shows since they began to manipulate the laugh track extensively as the years went on. A lot of the early shows didn't have/need much enhancing...

 

First one I thought of.



The producers told me they had to cut at least :30 seconds of the audience laughter out of the final show.

 

When Archie asked Sammy if he'd like creme or sugar in his eye made me laugh more.

 

Wait for the scene with the hamburgers.

 

The whole episode is like that! Required viewing for anybody with a sense of humor.

 

I thought so as well but most bloopers sound like that as well,... unless they enhance the bloopers as well?

 

The Dentist skit from the Carol Burnett show, especially around the 7 minute mark when Tim jabs himself with the Novocain.

 

Did Lou Costello teach Donald Trump how to tie his ties?

 

I think I've seen nearly every episode of Whose Line, and that clip definitely stands out for audience reaction. We may have a winner for this thread.

 

first one that popped into my head

 

Hard to say. All I know is I remember watching that show and being surprised by just how enthusiastic the audience was. Most shows had blase/lukewarm studio audiences but Raymond's sounded like they got a B-12 shot or they pumped them full of sugar before the show or something. Was this the point where they began to sweeten the laugh track aggressively?

 

A lot of bloopers are funnier than the show........
