Skelton is joined by world-renowned mime artist Marcel Marceau in recreating some of Red's funniest routines and exciting new skits. America's greatest clown has entertained millions with his rubber-faced pantomime and wry sense of humor while inspiring many of today's comedians. Best known for his long-running TV show, an American favorite from 1951 to 1971, Red Skelton filled living rooms with laughter with such characters as Freddy the Freeloader, Junior the Mean Widdle Kid, San Fernando Red and Clem Kadiddlehopper. Skelton reached a new generation with these hilarious HBO specials, proving why he has become such a cherished part of our culture.
