The Waters Wake Up Call with Mike Waters · Thu Nov 9, 2023
oof
Hey, it's Waters from The Waters' Wake Up Call.
Had a blast of a throwback Thursday, discussing the funniest scenes from the funniest TV shows.
Good
morning, Mike.
How are you?
Well, I'm
good.
Who is this?
You scared
me.
It is?
I'm sorry.
I know.
Do you have a bit of a thing going on?
What's happening?
Are you going through puberty?
The voice seems a little deeper, like Peter from the break.
Oh, I
see.
Should I
sing for you
then?
Yes, please.
When it's time to
change.
Oh my goodness.
You got a call?
How
you doing?
Good.
How are you doing?
We got to figure you out first.
What's happening with you?
I was really throwing you off.
There is a different quality to your voice that I had to ask.
Because I didn't want to say somebody else.
Hey, it's Carrie from Dicert.
No, this is Marge.
Because you kind of sound like a Marge today.
Oh,
goodness.
Yeah, sorry.
That's all
right.
It's a little bit under the weather, but I'm actually on the upside of it.
Oh,
good.
So we're
doing good.
All right.
Well, that's all we need to hear.
And with that, you got a funny scene, Carrie.
See?
Well, there's two.
of them and of course everybody has brought up Carol Burnett because it's just been, I mean, it doesn't matter really what scene you played.
It was, all of it was funny.
It was hilarious.
Amazing, amazing team and amazing show for sure.
But the one that always sticks out in my mind is All in the Family with Archie and Sammy Davis Jr.
The big kiss on the lips.
Was it on the lips?
The big
old kiss.
It was on the lips.
It was
on the cheek.
Oh, it was on the cheek, okay.
I think it was on the cheek.
I think it was too, because I think Archie had turned his head and then Sammy planted one.
I always thought that was just hilarious.
And of course, the generation now would be totally offended, but that's what made it so funny is because...
Because Archie was who he was.
That's
all you need to say.
Yeah,
it
was
good.
I was just thinking of WKRP in Cincinnati.
Thanksgiving Day when Wes is reporting on the turkey drop.
Oh my god, they're turkeys!
Yeah!
Yes.
That was a funny one.
The episode of Carol Burnett, the gone with the wind when she comes down the steps with a curtain on her shoulder.
I just saw it in the window and I couldn't resist.
Oh my god, I laughed and laughed at that.
So did my mom and my dad.
We
just sat there and just laughed over that thing.
It still does today.
when they'll replay it on something and I just...
The first funny part is the visual.
I mean, she sees the curtains and then she has this idea and then she comes out and there's the curtain rod, you know, sticking out from her shoulders and that was great all by itself.
But when she said, I just saw in the window, I remember the audience laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.
Oh my God.
And how they could keep a straight face with something like that just in...
From what I gathered, it was kind of a last-minute surprise thing, too, that she came up with.
That's what even makes it funnier is that the rest of the cast members of that kind of did get a little bit of a surprise there,
but it was
awesome.
Good morning, Mr. Waters.
This is Schmitty.
Schmitty!
How are
you
doing?
I hope you're better than something that rhymes with Schmitty.
Yeah, I'm doing a lot
better than that.
Okay, good.
If you're mentioning brownies on the Andy Griffith show...
then you gotta mention the brownies on the Barney Miller show.
Did I say Andy Griffith?
I could be wrong.
I meant Barney Miller.
You probably did say Barney Miller, and I assumed it was Barney
Byrd.
And maybe I've been having brownies today.
I don't know.
The Barney Miller thing.
Well,
brownies with your coffee never hurt anybody.
That's right, mooshy mooshy.
Taxi when Reverend Jim was trying for his license.
Yep, slow down.
Yeah, very good.
Does.
That's a great episode.
It's fun to listen to you in all the really cute shows.
Oh,
good.
Thank you.
It's a blast for me too.
You're welcome.
Weekday mornings, 5.30 to
10.
