I'll start with a doozy.

Who said "I ain't gonna vote for no damned albino!!!"

The actors name will suffice (we ALL know him from another role) and on what show (hint he co-starred with the same actress on THAT show and the one we all know them from)

BONUS POINTS if you can tell who/what he was talking about .

The ACTRESS hinted at above starred in TWO sketch comedy shows on TWO different networks. The first one she was on was the one both of them were on.

11. DIN DING DING

Michael Richards on t he ABC show "Friday's" which also starred Julia Louise Dreyfus.

Richards was playing the Bob Boudelang-esque role of a guy living in a trailer being interviewed about the 1980 Presidential election.

"I ain't voting for no damned ALBINO!!!" was a reference to independent candidate Jon Anderson.

16. I liked "Fridays."

I remember two skits w/ Richards: in one, he was an inept roller skater (at the height of the roller disco fad); in another he was a -- doctor? pharmacist?" -- and his cure for everything was "TAKE A PIIIIIILLLLLLL!"

How's life, Terry?

17. I remember one skit...

About a couple. The guy is trying to scare his wife by pretending there's a lunatic with a knife in the house. And at the very end of the skit, in the darkened kitchen...there actually is a lunatic with a knife standing there. The audience gasped at the end. For some reason, that skit stayed with me.

Life is ok, Bertha. Doug was just here...for too short a time. I miss my sweetheart already.

How's life for you, Bertha?

Enh.

18. Hey there do you like my pom-poms?

Yeah they are from Idaho.

The first time I saw Kramer I recognized part of the character as being "Dick" the clumsy guy in roller skates.....with pom-poms from Idaho.

14. NO that's why it went away

Richards did have a hilarious character who wore a mushroom cloud t-shirt and played with Army men in the dirt hole in his back yard. He often set them on fire and tortured them and once buried the "rich kid" up to his neck in the dirt hole, shoved a tennis ball in his mouth, inserted the garden hose in the corner of his mouth and turned it on. He hid this by putting his sisters doll house over the rich kid's head and sitting on it.

They actually had one of the cast members really do that, he could have drowned. I understand there were a lot of drugs on the set.

15. Richards was great on that show.

Too bad the show didn't make it. I think that show was the first attempt to go against SNL.

Just a guess
