*Spoiler/plot- 1969, Presenting the best of two episodes of Soupy Sales show from the 60's and 70's. This show features the famous all-star sketch called "The Waiter" with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, and Trini Lopez throwing pies at each other. See Soupy's top 10 musical hit, "Do the Mouse". And see his appearance on the $10,000 Pyramid game show. Rocker Alice Cooper visits Soupy's house. The usual cast of show characters and features are included for the nostalgic fun.

*Special Stars-'Soupy' Sales, Pookie the Lion, White Fang and Black Tooth. Guests: Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr, and Trini Lopez, Dick Clark, and Alice Cooper.

*Theme- Puns and pies are a funny combination.

*Based on- Classic TV era.

*Trivia/location/goofs- Black and White and color complete shows from New York and Southern California. It's a Rhino Classic TV videos presentation of the screwball cult comedy. This series comes in two videos. Available: "The Best of The Soupy Sales Show" and "MORE of The Best of The Soupy Sales Show".

*Emotion- A somewhat memorable video featuring a rather madcap type of sketch humor with puns and improvisational comedy. I am a Soupy Sales fan, but seeing these shows today leaves something to be desired in the laugh-out-loud aspect. It was laugh-out-loud funnier for child of elementary school age. It's nice to experience this again with your memories of that time.
