"With co-producers George Schlatter and Ed Friendly, creator/writer Digby Wolfe gave us a bikini-clad Goldie Hawn, covered in psychidelic body paint gyrating on a bare stage, and diminutive Judy Carne being hit with bucketsful of water. He gave us a German-helmeted Arte Johnson, cigarette held European-style, sinisterly intoning “Ver-r-r-y interesting” and a former vice-president popping his head through a hole in a wall to ask “Sock it to me?” just before he became President Richard M. Nixon. (His opponent in that election, Hubert Humphrey was later to comment that refusing to appear on Laugh-In probably cost him the election. That’s how far back “being cool” mattered.)"
