Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate are the central figures as Hef talks violence in movies with Polanski and its influence on audiences, a chilling discussion in view of events that took place only a few months later. This is one of the few extended pieces with Sharon without a script in front of her. Unlike Tarantino's movie, she comes across as jaded and serious. Hef tries to cut off the interview with Polanski by getting up and walking while but Polanski follows, blithering on causing Sharon to chuckle. Comic Jackie Gayle does a routine on the couch while seated beside Sharon. Roman sticks his nose and looks rather foolish. Overall, Polanski comes across as an oddball, though part of that may be due to heavy Polish accent. Don Adams and Bill Dana battle each other in telling tales of their shared comic past, revealing Adams's overweening ego. Lounge lizard Vic Damone does a bit that could have right out of Bill Murray's act on SNL. Della Reese lip syncs to a couple of tunes. Overall, because of Sharon and Polanski, one of the more memorable episodes. Written by TC See less
