Summary
Episode 128 - Pack your bags because we are headed to the Wild West, as seen though the eyes of comedy legend Mel Brooks. For the second time this month we enjoy the paring of Brooks and Gene Wilder as we watch and discuss Blazing Saddles (1974). Wilder plays the Waco Kid, who had the fastest hands in the west before crawling into a whiskey bottle. He teams up with newly appointed Sheriff Bart (Cleavon Little) to save the town of Rock Ridge. It's a classic comedy and we had a lot of fun with this one so tune in for this. And tune in next time as we wrap up Gene Gone Wilder month with Young Frankenstein (1974). email us at [email protected]
