I've seen some of these comics on other shows that weren't mentioned here. Both Flip Wilson and Joan Rivers appeared on "Here's Lucy", Buddy Hackett was on "The Danny Thomas Show" as a "Fugitive Father" and Shelley Berman was in a great "Bewitched" episode "The Witches Are Out'.
Me-TV was grasping today. Every actor on the way up or down appeared on "The Love Boat." And Red Buttons did a lot of dramatic work in film and television, winning the Oscar for "Sayonara." I didn't even know he'd been a stand-up comic.
