I remember many Saturday afternoons watching Jerry Lewis movies on Channel 56 or 38. Fun, silly times. And of course, the MDA telethon meant Summer was over and school was about to begin. Not so fun times.
L.I.M. Mr. Lewis and thanks.
Jerry Lewis, Legendary Entertainer and Host of MDA Telethon, Dead at 91
