Time for a new ringtone.
There’s another set of clips with him doing promos and swearing up a storm while taking hits from a beer can tucked behind the podium. I live him.
There’s also a thing he did for Patrick Watson’s history series Witness To Yesterday, which featured actors being interviewed in their roles as historical subjects (Donald Sutherland did a great 2 part thing as Norman Bethune - before he did the fetaure film) — and Trebek did one as Mark Twain and he did better than Hal Holbrook. I gotta find that.
No one else ever said “Fuck 'em” with quite that authority.
I’m in full agreement! That was a fine Fuck "em indeed.
I’ll take Eat Shit and Die, Fascist Pig for 400, Alex.
Alas, it doesn’t seem the Mark Twain episode exists online, only the Joan of Arc episode is here, which incidentally was also parodied by SCTV.
Maybe one day it will make an appearance, somehow.
Yep. He’s Canadian.
