Ever wonder why all the hearing impaired translators you see standing next to mayors and governors look like there were teleported in from Woodstock?
Was there a booth there? "FREE FOOD AND DRUGS FOR SIGN LANGUAGE TRANSLATORS"...then they go inside and there is a bright flash and they never come out?

Hilarious gag but if they tried that in 2020 the Twitter mob would have them off the air in 2 weeks and nobody on the show would ever get another gig.

That's why stalwart classics like
Blazing Saddles will never be remade. Pity. It's probably one of the best movies of the last 40 years.

You guys should patronize Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal PODcast (I subscribe via iTunes). Remember he was fired for a tsunami joke, one which was already circulating freely in Japan if I heard correctly.
A few months ago they had an episode dedicated to Blazing Saddles.
