I had to watch this twice to actually get the jokes! If you've ever watched the venerable Jim Lehrer of The Newshour With Jim Lehrer, you'll know this Southern gent is all business. So when he cracks jokes to introduce PBS's retrospective on American comedy, Make 'Em Laugh, starting in January, it's just bizarre.
