| Fridays
Vol. 2
Starring
Andy Kaufman
You'd think the producers of Fridays would
have wanted to keep Andy Kaufman off of the show after
the insanity his first appearance created, but in a
guaranteed move to help boost the failing shows ratings,
they once again asked Kaufman to come back and host.
He took them up on their offer, but only if he could
write some extensive material for the show. With their
hands tied, the producers said yes. The performance
he delivered is what many Kaufmanites consider his finest
hour. Andy hosted the entire show as a born again Christian,
complete with gospel sing along's, moral posturing and
the introduction of his Christian fiancée! In
the realm of conceptual comedy, it doesn’t get
any better or more original than this.
Special features: Andy’s rarely seen New Years
