Jerry Lewis, Dumont and Family Guy

Last night's Family Guy had a musical sketch that they said mimicked Jerry Lewis' pantomime sequence in the move, the Errand Boy. It turns out YouTube has the original clip:

At the end of the clip, YouTube showed a thumbnail of another Jerry Lewis film and I noticed the 1948 Dumont.

Kind of interesting that something current in 2010 can take you back to a valued piece of history from 60+ years ago.

Nice find. BTW 'My Friend Irma Goes West' is from 1950, as is the TV set.

Well, that's embarrassing. David, you are right, of course, SAMS set 93, folder 4 dated 5-50
