Re: Johnny Impossible
Is it sad when you remember that episode when it first aired?

Re: Johnny Impossible
I also remember Johnny's appearances on Hee Haw, and Bobby Goldsboro.

Re: Johnny Impossible
I remember those two especially. He sung Cats in the Cradle on the Bobby Goldsboro Show IIRC. He also went to Viet Nam with the Bob Hope Show a couple of times. Bench was a real celebrity back in the 70's and well known throughout the country.

Re: Johnny Impossible
Difficult to imagine now how popular he was back in the early 70s since he played in small market Cincinnati. Of course, back then, the gap between small and large markets was narrower.

Re: Johnny Impossible
I can just hear Peter Graves now talking to Johnny Bench: "Johnny, have you ever seen a grown man naked?" (Airplane)
