Comedy Entertainment Humor

Double Pack includes "Marathon" and "The Entertainers", starring Bob Newhart! "Marathon" - One of America's most beloved and honored comedian, Bob Newhart, stars in this engaging comedy of a midlife crisis that hits high gear and sets off a chain reaction of hilarity and comic mishaps. Walter Burton (Bob Newhart) is a middle-aged, married man in less-than-peak shape who decides that he will enter the prestigious New York City Marathon to impress an attractive and flirty airline stewardess (Leigh Taylor-Young). His friends and family are perplexed and amused by his newfound obsession with jogging and the chaos meter rises as the marathon approaches and Walter attempts to juggle his newly acquired double life. But if Walter finishes the marathon will his marriage be finished, too? Or is this test of endurance exactly the thing to rejuvenate the old spark? In the tradition of "Ten" and "The Seven Year Itch," "Marathon" is a delightful and joyous romp through love, marriage and temptation, a humorous take on the battle of the sexes. "The Entertainers" - Comic genius Bob Newhart stars with Linda Gray in this dramatic comedy about old friends, new acquaintances and big dreams. Todd (Bob Newhart) and his chimpanzee sidekick, Archie, are a struggling comedic team determined to make it big. In a final attempt to prove that they are not washed-up, Todd and Archie set off for the bright lights of Vegas to try their luck. As Todd reunites with his one true love, Laura (Linda Gray), who is now a singing star at one of the casinos, stardom is within reach. But, true to Vegas, the odds turn against them and fate steps in with a real showstopper. Todd learns that success has a price and his is forced to choose between friendship and stardom. Packaging Type is Side-by-Side.

Collection includes "Bringing Up Baby," "Dinner At Eight," "Libeled Lady," "The Philadelphia Story," "Stage Door" and "To Be Or Not To Be." "Bringing Up Baby" - All the earnest paleontologist (Cary Grant) wants is an intercostal clavicle to complete his brontosaurus skeleton. What he gets is an out-of-control toboggan ride with a scatterbrained heiress (Katharine Hepburn) nuts about him (or maybe just nuts). Riding along are a dog named George, a leopard named Baby, a snooty society matron with a spare million, a caretaker on the sauce and more. "Dinner At Eight" - A vastly entertaining behind-closed-doors glimpse into the lives of the troubled and troublemaking Who's Who of people invited to a posh Manhattan party, is served with ample helpings of humor and melodrama. "Libeled Lady" - Bill Chandler (William Powell) is one of America's great anglers, a sports fisherman without peer, doom in waders to the wiliest trout. And that isn't the only fish story Chandler tells. Four of Hollywood's greatest stars - Powell, Jean Harlow, Myrna Loy and Spencer Tracy reel in this whopper of a screwball romantic comedy classic nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. "The Philadelphia Story" - Sophisticated romantic comedy achieved its pinnacle in this timeless classic voted one of the Top 100 American Films of all time by the American Film Institute. Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant and Best Actor Academy Award winner James Stewart star in the masterful comedy (directed by George Cukor) about a fault finding, bride-to-be socialite who gets her comeuppance. (Writer Donald Ogden Stewart won the film's second Oscar for adapting Philip Barry's play.) "Stage Door" - Ginger Rogers and Ann Miller tap in time and rat-a-tat lines. Lucille Ball braves a date with an obnoxious lumber baron. Eve Arden can't recall Hamlet but one meets so many people in the big city. And Katharine Hepburn becomes Broadway's biggest star in a play wherein she notes "the calla lilies are in bloom again.

Comedy-drama - Comedy-drama, sometimes colloquially called dramedy, is a style of television and movies in which there is an equal balance of humor and serious content. The usual practice, particularly in commercial entertainment, is to strongly favor either humorous or emotionally weighty material, but many films and television shows have found success blending the two disparate genres.

Self-referential humor - Self-referential humor relies on a subject making light of itself in some manner. For example, a comedy play that featured the story of a group of fictional thespians attempting to put on a comedy play would be fertile ground for self-referential humor.

Guitar comedy - Guitar comedy is a recent form of stand-up comedy in which acoustic guitar (with other possible accompaniments) is used to accentuate the humor of a comedy routine. While music has been an important device in comedy, one of the most recent users of the genre has been Stephen Lynch.

Sports entertainment - Sports entertainment is a type of entertainment that superficially takes the form of a sporting event, but with more emphasis on dramatic storylines, humor, spectacle or titillation than on the contest of athletic skills. Sports entertainment is epitomized by professional wrestling.
