I've been watching John Carson re-runs with Rickles, Dangerfield, etc. Anyone who thinks standup has gotten too raunchy needs to watch some of the greats from decades ago.

Years ago I heard a Redd Foxx standup act from the late 60’s on the SiriusXM comedy channel. He was an artist with vulgarity.

This is why Sutherland was cast in Animal House.

Hadn't seen it in the obits but I read Sutherland was offered a piece of Animal House or $25K. He took the cash. No way was this movie going anywhere he thought.

I couldn’t sleep after watching it.

Invasion of tho Body Snatchers
The original was set in a small California town .
The remake in San Francisco
It worked much better in the original setting
