Some of these episodes of Whatever Turns You On are (in my opinion) better than the later YCDTOTV episodes.

This episode is all about getting fan letters, or in the case of Kevin Somers - a fan letter.

Features many funny sketches set at 'Camp Alcatraz', complete with a camp cook (a character that resembles Barth from YCDTOTV).

In one of the sketches, Marc gives the summer camp nurse (Ruth Buzzi) a pinch on the rear!

Ross has a good time mispronouncing Jono Gebert's name. He calls him 'Jeebert'

Truly classic television at its best!

Roger Price and Geoffrey Darby are indeed comic television pioneers!

Episode featured a live performance by Ian Thomas (but is not contained in this copy).

No waterings or green slimes in this clip.

quality: "A+" This is a copy that I received in trade. Excellent picture and sound.
