The Doctor

This video that I'm showing you guys today is another that stars late comedic genius, Peter Sellers.

In this video, Sellers is a guest star of "The Dean Martin Show", where host Dean Martin visits his office to inquire if he's a doctor. When it's confirmed that he's the guy he needs to see, Martin tells the doctor that he hasn't been feeling well for some reason. As the two try to figure out what's going on, several hilarious moments and procedures are taken, and what they eventually find is something no one could ever have expected.

In all honesty, I haven't gotten acquainted with "The Dean Martin Show" as I have with "The Carol Burnett Show" and "The Muppet Show", but I wouldn't mind doing so eventually considering the amount of talent and guest stars it had.

When I discovered another video showcasing this sketch, I couldn't help but find it to be immediately hilarious, and I thought it was another great showcase of Sellers's talents as an actor and comedian. Dean Martin was pretty funny too, of course.

Take a look:

(Note: You are free to stop at the 3:40 mark, because after that comes the opening theme of "The Dean Martin Show.)
